To determine which of these is more problematic could be difficult but we can definitely decide which one is more damaging. Too much grease can generate excessive heat in the bearing and may result in seal failure. When the lip seals rupture because of over greasing, it allows the harmful contaminants to enter the bearing housing. This would create excessive pressure and may collapse the bearing race. On the other hand, not putting enough grease may cause damage to the rotating parts. Undergreasing allows contaminants to enter the load zones. We can say that it's better to avoid both aspects of over and under greasing. How to determine the amount of grease a bearing needs? The factor responsible for determining the right amount of grease depends on the dimensions of the bearing or its housing. Greasing must be done based on p
