BEARING FAILURE COULD RESULT IN WHEEL-END FIRE
RCOMP/2016/002 · 28 May 2016
28 May 2016Defect
The wheel hub units fitted with FAG bearings may exhibit premature wear in certain trailer applications. Prolonged use in these applications may result in degradation of the bearing grease. Early indicators may include noise roughness excessive end-play high running temperatures and ABS signal error. If this condition remains undetected it may potentially lead to a bearing failure axle damage and in extreme cases a wheel-end fire. Timken bearings are not affected.
Remedy
Recall the units that are likely to be affected and on certain trailer applications replace the hub units. Other applications check for symptoms and if necessary replace hub unit.
