Product Overview: The 1318 Self-Aligning Ball Bearing
The 1318 bearing is a robust and highly effective component from our 1300 Series of Self-Aligning Ball Bearings. With dimensions of 90x190x43mm, this bearing is engineered to perform in applications where shaft deflection or misalignment is a concern. Its innovative design features two rows of balls and a common sphered raceway in the outer ring, which allows the bearing to automatically correct for angular misalignments between the shaft and the housing. This intrinsic self-aligning capability prevents excessive stress on the bearing, ensuring smoother operation and a longer service life.
Manufactured to meet stringent industry standards, the 1318 bearing is an essential part for a wide range of industrial machinery. It excels at handling moderate radial loads and is capable of accommodating light axial loads in both directions. As a key supplier of industrial mechanical parts, we offer this high-performance bearing to ensure your equipment runs reliably and efficiently, even under challenging operational conditions.
Key Features of the 1318 Bearing
- Self-Aligning Design: Automatically compensates for angular misalignment, reducing wear and extending the life of the machinery.
- Dual Ball Rows: Two rows of balls provide good load-carrying capacity for its size.
- Cylindrical Bore: Features a straight bore for standard shaft mounting, simplifying installation.
- Low Friction: Engineered for minimal rotational friction, which reduces operating temperature and energy consumption.
- Robust Construction: Made from high-purity, hardened bearing steel for exceptional durability and resistance to wear.
- Versatile Performance: Capable of handling both radial and light axial loads, making it suitable for diverse applications.
Common Applications
- Agricultural Equipment: Widely used in harvesters, combines, and tractors where shaft alignment can be compromised by rough terrain.
- Industrial Fans and Blowers: Ensures smooth operation by accommodating shaft deflections caused by high rotational speeds.
- Conveyor Systems: Ideal for long conveyor rollers where maintaining perfect alignment is difficult.
- Mining and Construction Machinery: Provides reliable performance in heavy-duty equipment exposed to vibration and shock loads.
- Textile and Printing Presses: Maintains precision in machinery where roller alignment is critical for quality output.
- Pulp and Paper Mills: Withstands the demanding environments of paper processing machinery.
Benefits of Using the 1318 Bearing
- Enhanced Equipment Reliability: The ability to self-align reduces stress on the shaft and other components, leading to fewer breakdowns.
- Extended Service Life: By compensating for misalignment, the bearing minimizes premature wear and lasts longer.
- Reduced Maintenance Needs: Its durable design and self-aligning properties decrease the frequency of inspections and replacements.
- Improved Operational Efficiency: Low-friction characteristics contribute to smoother performance and potential energy savings.
- Simplified Mounting: The forgiving nature of the self-aligning design can simplify the assembly process.
- Consistent Performance: Operates effectively even in applications where maintaining perfect shaft alignment is not possible.
