Product Overview: The 1210 Self-Aligning Ball Bearing
The 1210 Self-Aligning Ball Bearing is a robust and reliable component designed to handle demanding industrial applications. With key dimensions of a 50mm bore diameter, 90mm outer diameter, and 20mm thickness, this bearing is a key part of our 1200 Series. Its defining characteristic is the ability to accommodate both static and dynamic angular misalignment between the shaft and housing. This is achieved through its internal design, which features two rows of balls and a common sphered raceway in the outer ring, allowing the bearing to operate flawlessly even when the shaft deflects under load.
As a premier supplier of industrial components, we ensure that our 1210 bearings meet stringent quality standards for performance and longevity. They are engineered to reduce friction and operational heat, making them an excellent choice for machinery where precise alignment is difficult to maintain.

Key Features of the 1210 Bearing
- Automatic Self-Alignment: Compensates for shaft deflection and alignment errors, reducing stress on the bearing and other machine components.
- Dual Row Design: Two rows of balls provide a higher radial load capacity compared to single row bearings.
- Low Friction: The design minimizes rotational friction, leading to lower operating temperatures and improved energy efficiency.
- Cylindrical Bore: Features a standard cylindrical bore for straightforward mounting on a uniform shaft.
- Durable Construction: Manufactured from high-grade bearing steel for superior hardness, wear resistance, and a long service life.
- Versatile Performance: Suitable for moderate radial loads and can handle light axial loads in both directions.
Common Applications of 1210 Bearings
- Agricultural Machinery: Widely used in harvesters, tractors, and other farm equipment where shafts are long and prone to deflection.
- Conveyor Systems: Ideal for conveyor rollers and drive systems where structural flexing can cause misalignment.
- Industrial Fans and Blowers: Ensures smooth and quiet operation by accommodating imbalances or deflections in long fan shafts.
- Textile and Printing Presses: Provides reliable support for rollers, maintaining consistent performance despite slight misalignments.
- Food and Beverage Processing: Used in mixers, sorters, and packaging machines that require dependable operation.
- Mining and Construction Equipment: Suitable for applications like screening equipment and crushers where harsh conditions and heavy loads are common.
Benefits of Using the 1210 Bearing
- Enhanced Machine Reliability: By absorbing misalignment, it prevents premature wear and failure of the bearing and connected components.
- Extended Service Life: The self-aligning capability reduces edge stresses on the balls, leading to a longer operational lifespan.
- Reduced Maintenance Costs: Its durability and tolerance for misalignment mean fewer replacements and less downtime for repairs.
- Simplified Installation: The ability to self-align can simplify the machine design and assembly process, as precision mounting is less critical.
- Improved Operational Efficiency: Low-friction characteristics contribute to smoother machinery operation and potential energy savings.
