We all know that solid and sturdy wheels are a must for every vehicle, regardless of its type or size. With good wheels, a car can function normally.

  2. WHEEL BEARING MAINTENANCE: WHAT IS IT AND WHY IS IT SO IMPORTANT? • What Are Wheel Bearings? • A wheel bearing is an essential part that is critical to the operation of the vehicle. It is the main link to the wheel and a part that assures that it is working as it should be. The wheel bearing does all of this by allowing friction-free movement and rotation of the hub assembly, thereby providing smooth tyre and wheel rotation. • The structure of a wheel bearing is simple – it consists of a set of steel balls (ball bearings) or tapers (tapered bearings) which are held together by a metal ring.

  3. How Are Wheel Bearings Getting Damaged Or Broken? • Faulty installation: Tools such as a hammer or a wrench can cause damage to your wheel bearing, causing your wheels to fail prematurely. Re-using old accessories (bolts, nuts, split pins, seals) is another common issue that leads to this problem. When installing new wheel bearings, make sure you are using new accessories and doing the process in the right way. • Damage from the road/poor road quality: There are many factors that can damage a wheel bearing. Potholes,speed bumps, and curbstones are some of the common ways bearings get damaged.  • Poor quality wheel bearing: Every wheel bearing is performing under constant pressure, which is why it has to be made of quality and with the best materials.

  4. How Are Wheel Bearings Getting Damaged Or Broken? • Driving conditions: Deep water, mud and other contaminants (dust, road salt, etc.) can all get past the seals and enter the bearing, polluting its grease and wearing it away. • Car modifications: If you fit bigger rims than you are supposed to (or wider ones), put tyres with lower thread walls, absorbers or suspension springs, your wheel bearing will suffer from a greater load.

  5. How To Check For Potential Wheel Bearing Problems • Listening: The first and most logical way to check for wheel bearing issues are your ears. A bad wheel bearing typically produces a noise that can be easily mistaken as the engine noise. • Loose when driving: If your vehicle feels loose when driving it, it is likely suffering from dysfunctional wheel bearings. If you don’t know what this loose feeling refers to, it is basically the steering of the vehicle which can get loose, including the wheel bearings.  • Lack of control: When a wheel bearing corrodes or becomes pitted, it is likely to produce vibrations, which are transmitted to the tyres.
