# Corrosion and Moisture Effects on Bearings in Rain, Dirt, and Wet Environments

## Corrosion and Moisture

Construction machinery operates in high humidity, rain, dirt, and chemical environments, leading to bearing corrosion and premature failure.

## Sources of Corrosion

- Rain and snow: direct water exposure

- Dirt: a mixture of water and soil

- Condensation: from temperature fluctuations

- Chemicals: from road de-icing agents

## Consequences

- Corrosion of raceways

- Seal damage

- Lubricant loss

- Accelerated wear
