6. GEEK'S CORNER
Rotation Per Minute
Increasing the RPM's forces each bearing to travel farther and faster over time, increasing the heat produ-
ced and damage each bearing will accumulate versus the same bearings being used at lower RPM's over
the same time. Furthermore, the RPM's limits the effectiveness of more viscous oils due to the increased
resistance from moving through thick oil, outweighing the benefits of more viscous oil.
