- From an industry leader in mounted bearings and mechanical power-transmission components
> 10x longer bearing life
> 50% savings in annual bearing costs
> 50% savings in maintenance hours
Triple Lip (L3)
The IPTCI Triple Lip (L3) seal offers protection in harsh environments, agriculture, turf care, and car washes. The L3 seal has options for both standard or stainless steel inserts – creating even better bearing protection. The material is silicon rubber with a flinger, making bearings tough enough to stand up to anything the farm can throw at them!
Single Lip Seals
Single Lip seals are an economical choice to provide basic protection for a bearing. A nitrile rubber seal and slinger help keep lubricant inside the bearing and contaminants out. Also available with a silicone seal and stainless steel slinger for improved protection.

Stainless Steel Deep Groove Ball Bearings
Stainless steel deep groove ball bearings, made primarily of AISI 440C and AISI 301 stainless steel, offer high corrosion resistance, stability, and durability, especially in humid and caustic environments. They share standard dimensions but are specially suited for demanding, corrosive conditions. Pre-lubricated with FDA-approved grease, these bearings are ideal for the food and beverage industry.
Solid Lube Deep Groove Ball Bearings & Inserts
Solve SPL Series Poly Lube deep groove ball bearing use a solid lubricant rather than traditional liquid or grease lubricants. This allows for maintenance-free operation, reduced wear, and longer life as well as making them ideal for the food and pharmaceutical industries where avoiding liquid lubricant contamination is critical.
Increase Reliability. Decrease Costs.
Improved Performance and Reliability
Stainless steel’s strength and resistance to wear ensure more consistent performance and reliability. This minimizes downtime due to equipment failure, enhancing overall productivity. Opting for stainless steel can lead to smoother, more efficient facility management.
Long-Term Cost-Effectiveness
Although the initial investment in stainless steel may be higher than cast iron, their extended lifespan and lower maintenance requirements result in significant cost savings over time. This makes them a financially smart choice for long-term operations.
Superior Sanitary Qualities
Stainless steel’s non-porous surface prevents contamination and bacterial growth, making it an excellent choice for facilities with sanitary requirements. Unlike cast iron, stainless steel doesn’t flake or degrade, eliminating the risk of contamination from rust particles, which is crucial for maintaining product quality and compliance with industry regulations.
Top 10 Reasons Why Bearings Fail
Bearing failures have great impact on industry and economy. The aim of the study is to spot the major causes that limit bearing efficiency, thus leading to bearing failure.
- Ineffective / Wrong Type of Lubrication*
- Insufficient Amount of Lubrication*
- Excessive Amount of Lubrication*
- Misalignment
- Contamination
- Inadequate Bearing Clearance
- Undersized Shafting
- Imbalance in the System
- Improper Bearing Selection for Application
- Improper Mounting / Handling
