Product Overview: The 21313 Spherical Roller Bearing
The 21313 Spherical Roller Bearing is a high-capacity component engineered for the most demanding industrial applications. As a key part of our 21300 Series, this bearing belongs to the family of Spherical Roller Bearings, renowned for their ability to handle severe misalignment and heavy radial and axial loads. Featuring robust dimensions with a 65mm bore diameter, 140mm outer diameter, and 33mm thickness, it provides exceptional stability and performance. Its internal design consists of two rows of symmetrical barrel-shaped rollers that self-align within the outer ring's spherical raceway, compensating for shaft deflection and mounting errors without compromising service life.
This bearing is indispensable in heavy machinery where reliability is paramount. It is engineered to operate efficiently under conditions of vibration, shock loads, and contamination. As a leading supplier of industrial components, we ensure our 21313 bearings meet stringent quality standards for durability and operational excellence. For applications requiring mounting on a tapered shaft seat, this bearing can be paired with an appropriate adapter sleeve like the H 313.
Key Features of the 21313 Bearing
- Superior Load Capacity: Designed with two rows of rollers to support very high radial loads and significant axial loads in both directions.
- Excellent Misalignment Compensation: The spherical internal geometry allows the bearing to accommodate both static and dynamic angular misalignment between the shaft and housing.
- Robust Construction: Manufactured from high-quality bearing steel for outstanding toughness, wear resistance, and dimensional stability under heavy loads.
- Optimized Roller Design: Symmetrical barrel rollers ensure optimal load distribution along the roller length, reducing stress peaks and extending bearing life.
- Versatile Mounting Options: Available with either a cylindrical bore for standard press fits or a tapered bore for mounting with adapter or withdrawal sleeves.
- High-Performance Cage: Typically equipped with a strong steel or brass cage to guide the rollers, providing stability even in high-vibration environments.
Common Applications
- Mining and Construction: Used in crushers, vibrating screens, conveyor systems, and heavy earth-moving equipment.
- Pulp and Paper Industry: Essential for paper machines, calenders, and press sections where heavy loads and moisture are present.
- Industrial Gearboxes: Provides reliable support for gears and shafts in large-scale transmission systems.
- Wind Turbines: Critical for main rotor shafts and gearboxes, withstanding fluctuating loads and harsh weather conditions.
- Metals Industry: Found in continuous casting machines, rolling mills, and material handling equipment.
- Marine and Offshore: Suitable for propulsion systems, cranes, and winches that operate in corrosive and demanding environments.
- Heavy-Duty Fans and Blowers: Supports large industrial ventilation systems where high rotational speeds and loads are common.
Benefits of Using the 21313 Bearing
- Enhanced Machine Uptime: Its ability to handle misalignment and heavy loads reduces the risk of premature failure, leading to less downtime.
- Extended Service Life: The robust design and optimized internal geometry minimize wear and friction, ensuring a long operational lifespan.
- Reduced Maintenance Costs: High reliability and tolerance for harsh conditions mean fewer replacements and lower long-term maintenance expenses.
- Improved Operational Safety: The bearing's stability under extreme loads contributes to safer and more predictable machinery performance.
- Versatility Across Industries: Proven performance in a wide range of heavy-duty sectors makes it a versatile solution for complex engineering challenges.
- Simplified Assembly: The self-aligning feature can simplify the mounting process, as it is less sensitive to minor inaccuracies in shaft or housing alignment.
