Spherical roller bearings are high-performance bearings designed to handle heavy loads and rough conditions. They are commonly used in applications that require high radial loads and moderate axial loads, such as mining equipment, conveyor systems, and paper machines.
These bearings are made with precision machining and high-quality materials, such as chrome steel or stainless steel, that are specifically chosen for their durability and strength. They are engineered to withstand demanding operating conditions, including high temperatures, shock loads, and vibrations.
One of the key features of spherical roller bearings is their unique design, which features two rows of barrel-shaped rollers. This design allows the bearing to align itself with the housing, which helps to reduce friction and improve performance. Additionally, the rollers are guided by a central rib on the inner ring, which helps to distribute the load evenly and prevent damage to the bearing.
