Upgraded SKF Self-Aligning Roller Bearings last up to two times longer
For over 10 years SKF Explorer performance class bearings have set the world standard for endurance.
Their unique design, manufacturing and material improvements are proven to increase uptime and productivity, improve reliability and reduce noise and vibration levels.
Now SKF have launched the next generation bearing steel for self-aligning roller bearings.
SKF next generation bearing steel has a superior balance between hardness and toughness to significantly improve wear resistance.
Improved wear resistance means that these SKF Explorer bearings will run longer - particularly under difficult operating conditions giving:
- Twice the service life under poor lubricating conditions
- Twice the service life under severe contamination conditions
For typical contamination conditions, the service life will be twice as long as when using upgraded SKF Explorer vs existing Explorer bearings.
Delivery of upgraded SKF Explorer will roll out in quarter one of 2012. Just another example of ERIKS and SKF delivering value to your business.
