Induction & Hot Plate Bearing Heaters
(Induction Bearing Heaters, Hot Plate Bearing Heaters)
Induction heating is the most common method for heating and radially expanding bearings prior to installation and eliminates the contamination that can be caused by using oil baths. Hot plates may also be used as an alternate method on small bearings. Induction heating uses the "electromagnetic induction method" by passing an alternating current through the bearing bore much like a transformer. It is safer, more environmentally friendly and more controllable than ovens, oil baths or blow torches. Heaters may also be used on other applications such as gears, bushings and couplings. Help prevent bearing damage during installation by using an Induction Bearing Heater.
