Bearing storage

As long as the relative humidity of the storage room does not exceed 60% and the temperature does not change much, the bearing can be stored in the original packaging for several years. Sealed bearings or bearings with a dust cover may have reduced lubrication properties of the grease filled in the bearing after prolonged storage. The storage room should also be protected from vibration and shaking.

Bearings not stored in the original packaging should be properly stored to prevent corrosion and contamination.

Large rolling bearings can only be placed flat when stored, and the sides of the inner and outer rings are preferably all supported. If it is stored upright, the inner and outer rings and the rolling parts are heavy, and the inner and outer rings are relatively thin, which may cause permanent deformation.
