Ep. 18 (Operator Mindset: Decrease Maintenance with QCW Bearings) Using quality, well-designed replacement parts is a great way to make your car wash maintenance easier. It sounds simple but it’s frequently overlooked. Operators often choose less expensive products or neglect to stay abreast of new options, not realizing they could save significant time and energy with a superior component.

In episode 18, Marc and Phil explore this idea using IPTCI QCW bearings as an example. They’re joined by Ryan Linke from Solve Industrial Motion Group – the company behind these exceptional bearings. They discuss some of the features of QCW (Quadseal Car Wash) Bearings, with the most important highlight being their “lubed for life” design. They maintain proper lubrication without needing to be regreased, eliminating a messy, tedious task from the operator’s to-do list.

Listen to the entire episode to hear more about the QCW line, plus some valuable general knowledge about bearings. Thanks to Solve Industrial Motion Group for sponsoring this episode, and to Ryan for contributing to the conversation!
