Installation

OILES 500 selflubricating bearings require minimum or no maintenance provided they are correctly dimensioned and installed. Their high strength will then give a long bearing life.
The following points are important when installing the bearing:

OILES 500 is specially packed for transportation. Please do not remove the protective cover until installation.
The sliding surface of the bearing is treated with a solid lubricant coating. This is applied to improve the running-in process. Please make sure that this film is not damaged at the installation.
Make sure the mating material is cleaned carefully. This is very important for the life of the bearing.
