A Spherical Roller Bearing Is a Rolling Bearing with a Special Structure.

It is mainly composed of outer ring, inner ring, roller, cage and other parts. The outer ring raceway surface characterizes it as the bearing center for the spherical ball surface. It can adapt to the shaft, and the shell is not concentricity large, automatically adjusting the position of the shaft center so that the bearing can still work normally. This kind of bearing can withstand large radial loads and certain bi-directional axial loads, commonly used in heavy loads and shock loads in mechanical equipment.

Types of Spherical Roller Bearings

TFL-Bearings is a large supplier of Spherical Roller Bearings in various sizes and shapes. The types of spherical roller bearings we supply include:

Sealed Spherical roller bearingsThis kind of spherical roller has good sealing performance, which can effectively prevent water, moisture, etc., from entering the inside of the bearing and improve the service life and reliability of the bearing.

CA Spherical roller bearingThis type of spherical roller bearings has symmetrical rollers and retaining edges. CA means it has a one-piece, double-pronged machined cage made of brass.

E Spherical roller bearingThis type of spherical roller bearings contains two window-type stamping cages: the inner ring ends of the non-retaining edge, the inner ring middle non-retaining edge, and the middle retaining edge by the cage guided by the floating guide ring—symmetrical rolling body.

E1 spherical roller bearingThese spherical roller bearings contain two window-type stamped cages; the inner ring ends without retaining edges, the middle of the inner ring without retaining edges, and the middle retaining edges become floating guide rings guided by the inner or outer ring—symmetrical rolling body.

CC spherical roller bearingThis type of spherical roller contains two window stamping cages, an inner ring without a retaining edge, a floating guide ring guided by the inner ring, and a symmetrical rolling body.

MA Spherical roller bearingThis kind of spherical roller bearing has a two-piece outer ring guiding entity alloy copper to keep the frame, their inner ring center with blocking edge or no blocking edge, both sides with blocking edge, symmetrical type spherical roller.

MB Spherical roller bearingThis spherical roller bearing consists of a two-piece solid brass cage; it has an inner ring with retaining edges on both sides, a steel center retaining edge through which the cage is guided, and symmetrical rolling elements.

Spherical Roller Bearings Applications

1. Heavy industry: Such as mining and metallurgical equipment.

2. Machinery manufacturing: All kinds of machine tools, machinery, etc.

3. Paper industry: Paper machines and other equipment.

4. Wind power generation: Related parts of wind turbines.

5. Marine industry: Power systems of ships, etc. 

6. Cement, building materials industry: Related production equipment.

What Is the Meaning of K in Bearing Models?

Spherical roller bearings are divided into the tapered bore and cylindrical bore; the spherical roller bearing models suffix with K indicates a tapered bore, and the taper is 1:12. Suffix with K30 indicates a tapered bore, and the taper is 1:30.

What Is the Best Bearing for Heavy Loads?

1. Tapered roller bearings: can withstand large radial and axial joint loads.

2. Cylindrical roller bearings: mainly bear radial load, strong bearing capacity.

3. Self-aligning roller bearings: has good centering, can adapt to the angle deviation between the shaft and the bearing seat, but can also withstand a large heavy load.

What Are the Disadvantages of Spherical Roller Bearings?

Compared with some other types of bearings, spherical roller bearings may generate relatively high friction during operation and, in some cases, relatively high vibration and noise.

    What Are The Advantages And Disadvantages Of Ball Bearings And Roller Bearings ?

    Rolling bearings are the most widely used basic parts of various machinery. This article will explore the advantages and disadvantages of ball bearings VS roller bearings.

    What is the difference between a roller bearing and a ball bearing?

    The contact form is different: the ball bearing is point contact, while the roller bearing is line contact.

    Load-carrying capacity: in general, the load-carrying capacity of roller bearings is bigger than that of ball bearings.

    Impact resistance: ball bearings have better impact resistance, while roller bearings have relatively weaker impact resistance when bearing heavy loads.

    Friction coefficient: ball bearings have a small friction coefficient, and roller bearings have a relatively large friction coefficient.

    Why are roller bearings better?

    Ball bearings and roller bearings each have their characteristics; they can not simply say which one is better, but according to the specific use of the scene and demand to choose.

    Ball bearing friction resistance is small and starts sensitive, but the bearing capacity is relatively small; roller bearings bearing capacity is impact resistance, but the friction resistance may be slightly larger.

    Therefore, in the actual application, according to the working conditions of the equipment, load and other factors to consider, choose the most suitable type of bearing.

    Where are roller bearings used?

    Roller bearings are used in a wide range of application scenarios, mainly including machine tools, automobile manufacturing, power equipment, metallurgical equipment, heavy machinery, mining equipment, shipping, aerospace, robotics, medical equipment, food machinery, and chemical and pharmaceutical industries.

    Why are bearings important?

    The importance of bearings in mechanical equipment is reflected in the reduction of friction, reduced energy loss, extended service life and other aspects. As an important part of mechanical equipment, bearing selection, design and maintenance of mechanical equipment has an important impact on the operating status and performance.
