Bearings let wheels and shafts turn smoothly under load. Wheel bearings carry the weight of your vehicle, while trailer, tractor and industrial bearings keep equipment running on farms and mines. Dust, water crossings, overloading and lack of grease are the main causes of bearing failure in the Northern Cape.
Signs a bearing is failing
- A humming or growling noise that rises with speed
- Noise that changes when you turn left or right
- Play or wobble in the wheel
- Uneven tyre wear
- A hot wheel hub after driving or towing
- ABS warning light on some vehicles
