3. Considerations for high speed

Examine the following points when using a bearing near or beyond its limiting speed.
For further information on high speed rotation, consult Koyo.
1) Use of high precision bearings
2) Study of proper internal clearance (Reduction in internal clearance caused by temperature increase should be considered.)
3) Selection of proper cage type and materials (For high speed, copper alloy or phenolic resin machined cages are suitable.)
4) Selection of proper lubrication (Suitable lubrication for high speed should be selected forced oil lubrication, oil jet lubrication, oil mist lubrication and oil/air lubrication, etc.)
