Import Tips & Compliance

Include bearing manufacturer specs showing compatibility with wind turbine gearbox designs (e.g

SKF or FAG)

Document surface hardness (HRC 58-62) and material (e.g

18NiCrMo5) required for wind applications

Avoid common pitfall of classifying as general bearing housing (8483.20) by proving gearbox-specific function
