Enhance Your Performance & Increase Up Time with Bower Type E Bearings & NTN Single Point Lubricators

We hope this email finds you well & you are enjoying the beginning of Spring!

Here at NTN, we are constantly searching for ways to improve our customers’ application efficiency and downtime. As a result, we want to share two solutions that can significantly enhance the performance and reliability of your equipment: Bower Type E bearings and NTN Single Point Lubricators.

Bower Type E bearing units are engineered to excel in the most challenging operating conditions, where misalignment, heavy loads, contamination, or excess vibration are prevalent. Here are some key benefits of these bearings:

1. Sturdy Construction: The one-piece cast iron housing with elongated mounting slots ensures durability and reliability even in harsh environments.
2. Misalignment Tolerance: Featuring self-aligning, double-row spherical roller bearings, they can accommodate up to +/- 2 degrees of misalignment, minimizing wear and prolonging bearing life.
3. Secure Locking Mechanism: The set screw locking collar effectively secures the inner ring to the shaft, preventing slippage and ensuring stability.
4. Optimized Seal Design: With a double lip heavy contact seal and metal shield, these bearings provide excellent protection against contaminants, extending maintenance intervals.
5. Extended Inner Ring: The extended inner ring enhances stability and facilitates easier installation and maintenance procedures.

In addition to Bower Type E bearings, we also offer NTN’s Single Point Lubricators, which play a crucial role in extending bearing life and optimizing performance. These lubricators ensure precise grease delivery tailored to your specific application requirements, reducing downtime and maintenance costs.

Our Single Point Lubricators are available in three options:

1. READY: Designed for straightforward and convenient lubrication, ideal for basic applications.
2. SMART: Offers advanced features such as remote monitoring and programmable dispensing, providing greater control and efficiency.
3. DRIVE: Suitable for high-demand applications where continuous lubrication is essential, ensuring optimal performance and reliability.
