Product Overview: The 2209 Self-Aligning Ball Bearing
The 2209 bearing is a robust and efficient component, distinguished by its ability to accommodate misalignment. As a key part of our 2200 Series, this Self-Aligning Ball Bearing is engineered with two rows of balls and a common sphered raceway in the outer ring. This design allows the bearing to tolerate both static and dynamic angular misalignment between the shaft and the housing, making it indispensable in applications where shaft deflection or mounting errors are a concern. With its dimensions of 45x85x23mm, the 2209 is a popular choice for various industrial and mechanical systems.
As a premier supplier of industrial components, we ensure our 2209 bearings meet stringent quality standards for reliable performance and durability. They are designed to operate with low friction, reducing heat generation and energy consumption while ensuring smooth operation in demanding environments. For machinery requiring dependable performance under variable alignment conditions, the 2209 bearing is an excellent solution.
