How should bearings be cleaned?

2022-08-26

When removing the bearing for inspection, first make a record of the appearance by means of photography. Also, confirm the amount of remaining lubricant and sample the lubricant before cleaning the bearing.

a. The cleaning of the bearing is divided into coarse cleaning and fine cleaning, and a metal mesh frame can be placed at the bottom of the container used.

b. During rough washing, use a brush in the oil to remove grease or adhesions. At this time, if the bearing is rotated in oil, be careful that the rolling surface may be damaged by foreign matter or the like.

c. During fine cleaning, slowly rotate the bearing in the oil, which must be done carefully.

The commonly used cleaning agent is neutral non-hydrous diesel oil or kerosene, and sometimes warm lye is also used as needed. Whatever cleaning agent is used, it should be filtered frequently to keep it clean.

After cleaning, apply anti-rust oil or anti-rust grease to the bearing immediately.
