Product Overview: The 22328 Spherical Roller Bearing
The 22328 Spherical Roller Bearing is an exceptionally robust component engineered for the most demanding industrial applications. With core dimensions of 140mm Bore Diameter, 300mm Outer Diameter, and 102mm Thickness, this bearing is part of the high-capacity 22300 Series within our Spherical Roller Bearings collection. Its design features two rows of symmetrical barrel-shaped rollers and a common sphered raceway in the outer ring. This unique construction allows the bearing to accommodate significant shaft deflection and misalignment between the shaft and housing, making it indispensable in heavy-duty machinery where such conditions are common.
As a premier supplier of industrial components, we provide 22328 bearings manufactured to exacting standards, ensuring reliability and long service life under extreme radial and axial loads. This bearing is a cornerstone component in heavy industries, providing smooth, low-friction operation even under severe shock loads and vibrations.
Key Features of the 22328 Bearing
- Self-Aligning Capability: The spherical outer ring raceway allows for compensation of angular misalignment and shaft bending, reducing stress on the bearing and extending machinery life.
- High Load-Carrying Capacity: Engineered with two rows of rollers, it can handle very heavy radial loads and substantial axial loads in both directions.
- Robust Construction: Manufactured from high-purity, hardened bearing steel for superior durability, wear resistance, and performance in harsh environments.
- Optimized Roller Design: The barrel-shaped rollers are designed for optimal load distribution, minimizing stress concentrations and ensuring smooth rotation.
- Versatile Mounting Options: Commonly available with either a cylindrical bore for direct shaft mounting or a tapered bore for use with an adapter sleeve like the H 2328.
- Low Friction Performance: Precision engineering ensures minimal friction and heat generation, leading to greater operational efficiency and longevity.
Common Applications
- Mining and Construction: Ideal for crushers, vibrating screens, conveyors, and heavy earth-moving equipment.
- Pulp and Paper Mills: Used in calenders, press sections, and other high-load machinery.
