Rail bearings
03/02/2010 Email to a friend   Comment on this article
FAG Industrial Services (F'IS), the maintenance and condition monitoring division of Schaeffler, is offering rail operators a rapid reconditioning

service for its Tarol axle box bearings.


The firm insists that periodic maintenance can significantly extend the life of these very heavily
stressed components.

Repair work consists of thorough cleaning of all components, as well as dimensional and functional inspection - including adjusting axial clearance.
