Product Overview: The 2210 Self-Aligning Ball Bearing
The 2210 bearing is a high-performance component from our 2200 Series of Self-Aligning Ball Bearings, engineered with key dimensions of 50x90x23mm. This bearing is specifically designed to manage applications where shaft misalignment is a concern, whether due to mounting errors or shaft deflection under load. Its innovative design features two rows of balls and a common sphered raceway in the outer ring, which allows the inner ring, balls, and cage to rotate freely around the bearing center, automatically correcting for angular misalignments.
Manufactured to precise industry standards, the 2210 is an indispensable part for a wide range of industrial machinery. It excels at reducing friction and operational stress, thereby extending the service life of both the bearing and the equipment it's installed in. This makes it a reliable choice for maintaining smooth and efficient operation in demanding environments.
Key Features of the 2210 Bearing
- Self-Aligning Capability: Automatically compensates for angular misalignment between the shaft and housing, preventing excessive stress and wear.
- Dual-Row Design: Two rows of balls provide a higher radial load capacity compared to single-row bearings.
- Spherical Outer Raceway: The unique concave raceway in the outer ring is the key to its self-aligning property.
- Reduced Friction: Optimized internal geometry minimizes rotational friction, leading to lower operating temperatures and energy consumption.
- Durable Construction: Made from high-grade bearing steel for superior hardness, wear resistance, and fatigue life.
- Versatile Application Range: Suitable for moderate radial loads and low-to-moderate axial loads in either direction.
Common Applications
- Agricultural Machinery: Used in tractors, combines, and implements where frames can flex and cause shaft misalignment.
- Conveyor and Material Handling Systems: Ideal for long shafts in conveyor belts and roller systems that are prone to deflection.
- Industrial Fans and Blowers: Ensures smooth operation by accommodating misalignments caused by thermal expansion or structural shifts.
- Textile and Printing Machinery: Provides reliable support for rollers and shafts, maintaining precision in high-speed operations.
- Food and Beverage Processing Equipment: Suitable for machinery that requires robust bearings capable of handling operational variances.
- Pulp and Paper Mills: Effectively used in machinery where harsh conditions and heavy loads can lead to alignment issues.
Benefits of Using the 2210 Bearing
- Increased Machine Uptime: By tolerating misalignment, the bearing reduces the risk of premature failure and costly downtime.
- Extended Service Life: The self-aligning feature minimizes stress on the bearing and adjacent components, leading to a longer operational lifespan.
- Lower Maintenance Requirements: Its robust design and ability to handle imperfections reduce the need for frequent inspections and replacements.
- Improved Operational Efficiency: Low-friction performance ensures smoother rotation and contributes to overall energy savings.
- Simplified Assembly: The ability to self-align can simplify the initial mounting process, as minor alignment errors are tolerated.
- Reliable Performance: Delivers consistent and dependable performance even in applications with shaft deflection or housing distortions.
