Product Overview: The 22309 Spherical Roller Bearing
The 22309 Spherical Roller Bearing is a high-capacity, double-row, self-aligning bearing designed for the most demanding industrial applications. With key dimensions of 45mm Bore Diameter, 100mm Outer Diameter, and 36mm Thickness, this bearing is part of the renowned 22300 Series. Its internal design features two rows of symmetrical barrel rollers and a common sphered raceway in the outer ring. This construction allows the bearing to accommodate significant shaft misalignment and deflection, making it an indispensable component in heavy machinery where perfect alignment is challenging to achieve or maintain. As a key part of our Spherical Roller Bearings collection, the 22309 is built to handle heavy radial loads and moderate axial loads in both directions, ensuring reliability and a long service life under severe operating conditions.
Key Features of the 22309 Bearing
- Self-Aligning Capability: Automatically compensates for angular misalignment between the shaft and housing, reducing stress on the bearing and adjacent components.
- High Load Capacity: Engineered to support very heavy radial loads and significant axial loads, making it ideal for heavy-duty applications.
- Robust Double-Row Design: Features two rows of barrel-shaped rollers that provide excellent stability and load distribution.
- Durable Construction: Manufactured from high-quality, clean bearing steel for superior strength, wear resistance, and longevity.
- Optimized for Harsh Environments: Performs reliably in conditions involving heavy loads, shock, vibration, and potential misalignment.
- Compatibility with Adapter Sleeves: Can be mounted on smooth or stepped shafts using adapter sleeves like the H 2309 for easy installation and secure fitting.
Common Applications
- Mining and Construction: Used in crushers, vibrating screens, conveyor systems, and heavy earth-moving equipment.
