Sliding Surface Bearing Maintenance
To maximize the effectiveness and life of sliding surface bearings, they need to be properly installed and maintained. Their performance should be monitored to help identify problems before the bearing completely fails. When a bearing does fail, it helps to inspect it to identify the cause of the failure to prevent a recurrence. This course will discuss common sliding surface bearing performance indicators and failure modes and how to inspect both journal and thrust bearings.
