Our team of researchers and application engineers discusses how to reduce premature bearing failure that may cause white etching cracks. Learn more about on how SKF solutions have helped to tackle such challenges at www.skf.com/white-etching-cracks. Bearings in large industrial gearboxes or drive train applications are often subjected to a wide variety of operating conditions that may cause a bearing failure, resulting in what is often described as white etching cracks (WEC). SKF offers hands-on recommendation to reduce premature bearing failures. SKF started in 1907 as a bearing company, but today we make everything from lubrication systems to mechatronics. You can find our products & solutions in almost anything that rolls or moves, from space shuttles to skateboards.
