Product Overview: The 1200 Self-Aligning Ball Bearing
The 1200 bearing is a compact and efficient component from our 1200 Series of Self-Aligning Ball Bearings. With dimensions of 10x30x9mm (Bore x Outer Diameter x Thickness), this bearing is expertly designed to handle applications where shaft misalignment is a concern. Its key feature is the spherical outer ring raceway, which allows the inner ring, balls, and cage to pivot freely, compensating for angular deviations between the shaft and the housing. This self-aligning capability prevents excessive stress on the bearing, ensuring smoother operation and a longer service life.
As a trusted supplier of industrial components, we provide high-quality 1200 bearings manufactured to precise standards. This bearing's dual-row ball design makes it suitable for carrying radial loads and moderate axial loads in both directions, making it a versatile choice for a variety of light to medium-duty industrial machinery.

Features of the 1200 Bearing
- Self-Aligning Design: Automatically compensates for angular misalignment, reducing stress and wear on the bearing and shaft.
- Double Row of Balls: Provides good radial load-carrying capacity and can handle axial loads from either direction.
- Low Friction: Engineered to operate with minimal friction, which reduces heat generation and improves energy efficiency.
- Precision Engineering: Manufactured to strict tolerances for reliable and consistent performance in industrial environments.
- Durable Steel Construction: Made from high-grade bearing steel for superior hardness, wear resistance, and longevity.
- Open Design: Allows for easy lubrication and maintenance, suitable for various operating conditions.
Applications of 1200 Bearings
- Textile Machinery: Ideal for spindles and rollers where slight shaft deflections can occur.
- Agricultural Equipment: Used in implements where shafts are long and subject to bending or housing distortion.
- Conveyor Systems: Ensures reliable roller operation even when conveyor frames are not perfectly aligned.
- Fans and Blowers: Accommodates shaft flexing in high-speed rotational equipment, reducing vibration and noise.
- Food Processing Machinery: Provides dependable support for rotating parts in equipment that requires robust components.
- Printing Presses: Maintains alignment of rollers for consistent and high-quality printing results.
- Woodworking Machines: Suitable for saws, sanders, and other equipment requiring precise yet adaptable rotational support.
Benefits of Using the 1200 Bearing
- Increased Machine Uptime: The ability to handle misalignment reduces the likelihood of premature bearing failure and costly downtime.
- Extended Service Life: By preventing edge loading and excessive stress, the self-aligning feature significantly prolongs the bearing's operational life.
- Simplified Mounting: The forgiving nature of the bearing simplifies the installation process, as perfect initial alignment is not critical.
- Reduced Maintenance Needs: Its robust design and ability to compensate for imperfections lead to lower maintenance frequency and costs.
- Improved Performance: Low-friction operation contributes to smoother, quieter, and more efficient machinery performance.
- Versatility: Suitable for a wide range of applications where maintaining shaft alignment is challenging.
