Inserting or installing
an SKF ConCentra
bearing
The SKF ConCentra ball bearings can be
inserted into any SKF Y-housing.
To do this insert the bearing into the
filling slot in the housing bore († fig. 7)
and, with a round piece of wood or pipe,
swivel the bearing into position so that the
locking device is facing in the same direction
as the filling slots († fig. 8). To avoid dam-
aging the sleeve edge, use a piece of pipe or
wood that is slightly smaller than the bore
of the bearing. Also, avoid putting too much
pressure on the bearing while swivelling it
into place. Make sure not to transfer the
swivelling torque in the sleeve slot area.
When installing the bearing, make sure
that one of the relubrication holes in the
bearing coincides with the relubrication
facility in the housing and no one coincides
with the filling slot in the housing, otherwise
grease leakage may occur († fig. 9).
