Heavy-duty bearings with two rows of barrel-shaped rollers running on a spherical outer raceway. They carry very high radial loads and axial loads in both directions while tolerating shaft misalignment in mining, cement, paper mills, crushers, gearboxes and heavy machinery.
Spherical roller bearings are self-aligning rolling-element bearings designed to carry heavy radial loads along with moderate axial loads in both directions. Their barrel-shaped rollers run on a spherical outer raceway, allowing the bearing to tolerate shaft misalignment and deflection in demanding industrial applications.
BEARING CONSTRUCTION: Two rows of barrel-shaped rollers run between a double-grooved inner ring and a common spherical outer raceway. This design provides self-alignment, high load capacity and dependable performance under shock loads and vibration.
Every element works together to carry heavy loads and accommodate shaft misalignment.
The inner ring fits on the rotating shaft and has two raceways, one for each row of rollers.
The outer ring has a single spherical raceway, which lets the inner ring and rollers tilt to absorb misalignment.
Barrel-shaped rollers in two rows carry heavy radial loads and axial loads from both directions.
Keeps both rows of rollers evenly spaced and guided during operation.
