Product Overview: The 22312 Spherical Roller Bearing
The 22312 is a high-capacity Spherical Roller Bearing designed for the most demanding industrial applications. As a key component in our 22300 Series of Spherical Roller Bearings, it is engineered to handle very heavy radial and significant axial loads in both directions. Its primary feature is the ability to accommodate misalignment between the shaft and housing, which can arise from shaft deflection under load or mounting errors. The bearing's internal design, with two rows of symmetrical barrel rollers and a common sphered outer ring raceway, allows for this crucial self-alignment, preventing excessive stress and extending operational life.
Manufactured to precise industry standards with dimensions of 60mm bore, 130mm outer diameter, and 46mm thickness, the 22312 bearing provides robust and reliable performance. It is an indispensable part for heavy machinery where reliability under severe conditions is paramount. Explore our complete range of spherical roller bearings to find the ideal solution for your heavy-duty industrial needs.
