FAQs
What type of grease should I use with this bearing?
Laser Tools recommends Molybdenum Disulphide Grease, also known as black drive shaft grease.
Can I use standard multi-purpose lithium grease?
It is not recommended. Molybdenum Disulphide Grease is specifically required to provide the high-pressure protection needed for these thrust bearings.
How often should I re-lubricate the thrust bearing?
You should apply a fresh coat of grease before each use to ensure smooth operation and prevent premature wear.
Does this bearing work with non-Laser tools?
While it is engineered for the Laser GEN2 system, it may fit other tools with similar dimensions, but functionality cannot be guaranteed with third-party equipment.
How do I know if the bearing needs to be replaced?
Replace the bearing if you notice flattened rollers, physical cracking, heavy scoring on the races, or if the bearing remains 'notchy' even after cleaning and proper lubrication.
Troubleshooting
The force screw is becoming difficult to turn during use.
The bearing may be lacking lubrication or has become contaminated with debris. Clean thoroughly and re-apply Molybdenum Disulphide Grease.
The bearing exhibits grinding noise under load.
This indicates wear or lack of grease. Inspect for debris or signs of internal surface degradation and re-grease or replace as necessary.
Pros and Cons
Pros
- High-precision build quality for reliable performance
- Essential for smooth bearing extraction and installation
- Reduces the risk of tool binding under high loads
- Durable construction for long-term shop use
Cons
- Requires specific maintenance with designated lubricants
- Not a standalone tool; requires a compatible press system
- Sensitive to contamination if not cleaned regularly
Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure peak performance, the thrust bearing must be lubricated before every use. Laser Tools specifically recommends the application of Molybdenum Disulphide Grease, frequently referred to as black drive shaft grease, to all mating surfaces, including the threaded force screws and the bearing tracks themselves. Avoid using thin machine oils, as they do not provide the necessary film strength for high-pressure bearing applications. Store the bearing in a clean, dry environment away from metal shavings or debris to prevent pitting on the internal races. Periodically inspect the bearing for signs of heat discoloration or flattened rollers, which indicate the need for replacement.
