Warning: Non-compliant Heat Treatment by Precision Bearing Manufacturers Can Cause Severe Consequences!

A customer chose to purchase bearings produced by a precision bearing manufacturer offering the lowest possible price in order to save costs, but ended up losing tens of thousands!

Precision Bearing Manufacturers

Here's what happened: a customer inquired about a batch of precision bearings in stock, and after comparison, they selected a bearing manufacturer offering lower prices. However, today they approached us again, saying they needed to reorder a batch. After some investigation, we found out that the new bearings had fractured during machine installation and trial. It turned out that the heat treatment process of the other party had encountered problems!

Apparently, during heat treatment, the quenching temperature was either too high or the heating and holding time was too long, resulting in coarse needle-like martensite formation and overheating. This compromised the toughness and impact resistance of the precision bearings, leading to their fracture!

Therefore, when purchasing precision bearings, one must never blindly pursue low prices. The losses incurred can far outweigh the savings!
