It is crucial for bearing assemblies to be reliable, to prevent expensive and unexpected downtime. The  K-IBA™ bearing assembly offers many updated parts to improve on typical legacy failure points. Contamination and grease consumption are major issues in standard bearing assemblies.

Contamination is the leading cause of bearing failure, with approximately 55% of bearing failures due to contamination leading to unscheduled downtime and lost production. Up to 95% of grease is wasted in conventional bearing assemblies. The K-IBA™ was specifically designed to prevent against contamination, reduce grease consumption, improve maintenance intervals and reduce inventory costs.
