WBA Bearing Authenticator 2.0 2.1.0

The initiative "Stop Fake Bearings," launched by the World Bearing Association (WBA), addresses a growing concern within the industry: the proliferation of counterfeit bearings. These fraudulent products pose significant risks, including jeopardizing employee and consumer safety, disrupting productivity, and incurring substantial costs due to unplanned downtimes and potentially costly repairs.

The primary objective of the WBA’s "Stop Fake Bearings" initiative is to facilitate the identification of counterfeit bearings, thereby safeguarding the well-being of personnel, equipment integrity, and organizational reputation. This initiative has garnered support from prominent bearing manufacturers globally, including JTEKT (Koyo), NACHI, NTN, NSK, Schaeffler (INA/FAG), SKF, and Timken.

Utilizing proprietary data, the WBA Bearing authenticator offers a reliable method for verifying the authenticity of bearings, providing immediate feedback to users. This tool serves as an essential resource for businesses seeking to ensure the integrity of their bearing purchases. It is highly recommended to source bearings from reputable suppliers to maintain authenticity. For further details, interested parties can visit www.stopfakebearings.com/WBAcheck.
