What looks like a real bargain at first sight can turn out to be a real danger later on. Rolling bearings are safety-relevant products. Bearings for cars, trains or aircraft from INA and FAG are introduced to the market only when they have passed a series of extensive tests and quality inspections. Cheap counterfeits have not undergone such inspections. Inferior materials are used instead of high-grade steel and lubricants. And when it comes to precision and service life, cheap bearings often fail shortly after the running-in stage. At best, the user does not obtain the expected performance. But the consequences can be much worse, including total machine failure and safety threats.
Where does danger lurk? Backyard workshops do not inevitably deliver inferior products. Quality certificates are more important than impressively furnished salesrooms. But independent dealers and workshops
