BESSEY® Bearing Heaters
Reco Induction Bearing Heaters
BESSEY® Reco Induction Bearing Heaters extend the
bearing life and cut operating costs by eliminating
hammering and pounding to cold-mount bearings.
It works on bearings, sprockets, gears, couplings,
and sleeves. Not only does it reduce the risk to the
operator from flames, torches or oil baths, it also
demagnetizes bearings. The Reco Induction Bearing
Heater is easy to use and ready in minutes.

WARNING: Do NOT operate an induction bearing heater if
you wear a heart pace-maker. The strong magnetic field
emitted by the heater may affect operation of such devices.

Reco Induction Bearing Heaters
Why should a Bearing be Heated?
Pyrometer/Thermometer
Heating allows the expansion of the bearing for a precise placement
and alignment of the bearing on the shaft without risking any damage.
Pressing (driving) a cold bearing onto a shaft can cause a bearing to
misalign and a difference of as little as 0.001" can reduce it's lifespan
by 50%.
What is an "Induction Heater"?
Induction heating is an electro-magnetic process that provides quick,
even heating that uses a transformer with a short circuited secondary.
The heat is being generated at the molecular level within the bearing
itself resulting in an even distribution throughout the bearing.
Why use Bearing Heaters?
Bearing heaters generate clean and even heat, and even heating
means precision placement, resulting in extended bearing life.
Alternatives for heating such as hot oil baths and forge methods
are messy and dangerous. Torches and element tops can create
uneven heating & expansion and cause hot spots that can change the
metallurgical properties of the bearing steel.
Tips and Tricks
Alway use the largest cross bar that will fit through bearings hole.
Heaters should not be placed on steel tables or carts and should be
raised up about 18" from any heavily 'rebarred' concrete floor as they
can soak up some of the heat inducing energy and prolong the heating
times.
Bearings that are too large in diameter to be suspended from the cross
bar can still be heated since induction heating does not require direct
contact. Also a bearing can sit on the base of the machine & the cross
bar can be placed through the hole.
Raising Blocks
Raising blocks (sold in pairs) lift bearing heater crossbar to accommodate
larger diameter bearings.
