When heat is used to expand the inner rings in mounting bearings and temperature is carefully controlled, is there anything else to worry about?

Ans: Yes-The tendency of the hot inner to pull away from the cold shoulder. Lock it against the shoulder with a lock-nut, if there is one, and after it cools, be sure to check and see that it is the correct location, snug against the shoulder where it belongs. In the cause of cones and cups, this could affect the bearing adjustment. Be sure to check the seating with a feeler gage.
