Traditional ball bearings from your roller bearing supplier generally rely on close housing tolerances to secure the bearing and prevent axial movements. This requires precision manufacturing, as even small inconsistencies in the housing can negatively affect the bearing operation. Flange units reduce this risk by securing the bearing directly to the equipment to prevent axial movement.

Poor quality wheel bearing – a wheel bearing is continuously under enormous pressure. Wheel bearings constructed of low-quality materials can have poor heat-treatment, resulting in premature wear and failure.

It is best to avoid driving with a worn wheel bearing for any length of time. The wheel bearing is essential for connecting your wheel to your car, and any weakness in this connection could have severe consequences for your drive-axle and steering assembly – as well as for your safety!

Car modifications – fitting bigger or wider rims, tires with lower thread walls, stiffer shock absorbers and suspension springs cause higher loads on the wheel bearing and can accelerate wear. Stick to rims, tires, shock absorbers and springs that are specified by the car manufacturer to minimize the impact on the longevity of the wheel bearings.

Flange bearing units are manufactured with a lip or extension around the bearing to allow for mounting to equipment. This secures the outer bearing ring to ensure proper positioning, particularly in delicate applications. Once installed, the bearing can rotate and carry a load with minimal friction. While your ball bearings supplier can help you explore the many different flange unit specifications available, here are some basic parameters of typical options:

Faulty installation– inappropriate tools such as a hammer or an impact wrench can cause damage to the exterior and or interior of the wheel end bearing causing the wheel bearing to fail prematurely.  Also, re-using the old accessories such as bolts, nuts, circlips, split pins, seals,… instead of replacing them with new ones can cause the wheel end bearing to operate under abnormal or unsafe conditions, increasing wheel end bearing wear and risk of a car accident.

The material used affects the lifetime, heat resistance, weight, cost, and other factors of the bearing. If you don’t know which alloy best fits your industry application, reach out to our team at Baker Bearing Company to find an exact replacement or for a bulk order to fulfill your manufacturing requirements.

Flange bearing units can also protect against thermal expansion. When housings warp or adjust due to thermal expansion, it can cause excessive wear or failure of other breaking types.

According to MOOG: “A wheel bearing is a crucial part of the wheel assembly that connects the wheel and the axle. It is a set of steel balls (ball bearings) or tapers (tapered bearings), held together by a metal ring. It enables the wheel to rotate smoothly with a minimum of friction. Wheel bearings are safety critical components designed to sustain radial and axial loads caused by gravitation, acceleration, breaking & cornering forces, so they need to be replaced when they stop working properly.”

When replacing your wheel bearings, it is essential to look for high quality parts. When selecting parts, it is ideal to find, premium quality, long-lasting wheel end bearings that are engineered, manufactured, tested and validated to OEM standards for maximum performance and durability.

In addition to various size and material options, flange units are also available in different shapes to work in space-restricted applications. Consider one of these flange types for your manufacturing needs:

Driving conditions – driving through deep water or mud can cause your wheel bearings to fail. Water, mud or other contaminants such as dust or road salt could get past the seals and enter the bearing, polluting the grease and wearing away the bearings.
