Product Overview: The 22224 Spherical Roller Bearing
The 22224 bearing is a high-capacity component from our 22200 Series of Spherical Roller Bearings, engineered for the most demanding industrial applications. With core dimensions of 120x215x58mm (Bore x Outer Diameter x Thickness), this bearing is designed to handle very heavy radial and significant axial loads in both directions. Its key feature is the spherical raceway in the outer ring, which allows it to accommodate shaft deflection and misalignment between the shaft and housing, ensuring reliable operation under challenging conditions.
As a premier supplier of industrial components, we ensure our 22224 bearings are manufactured to rigorous standards. The internal design, featuring two rows of symmetrical barrel rollers, provides exceptional load distribution and reduces friction, making it an essential part for heavy machinery in various sectors. Explore our complete range of spherical roller bearings to find the ideal solution for your heavy-duty needs.
Key Features of the 22224 Bearing
- Self-Aligning Capability: Automatically compensates for angular misalignment and shaft deflection, reducing stress on the bearing and extending its service life.
