Product Overview: The 23028 Spherical Roller Bearing
The 23028 Spherical Roller Bearing is a high-capacity component engineered to perform in the most demanding industrial environments. As a key part of our 23000 Series of Spherical Roller Bearings, this bearing is designed with impressive dimensions of 140x210x53mm (Bore x Outer Diameter x Thickness). Its defining feature is the two rows of symmetrical barrel rollers and a common sphered raceway in the outer ring. This innovative design allows the bearing to accommodate significant shaft deflection and misalignment between the shaft and housing, making it indispensable for heavy-duty applications where perfect alignment is challenging to maintain.
Manufactured to exacting standards, the 23028 bearing provides exceptional reliability and a long service life under heavy radial and axial loads in both directions. It is a fundamental component in heavy machinery, ensuring smooth and efficient operation even under severe conditions like shock loads and vibrations.
Key Features of the 23028 Bearing
- Superior Load Capacity: Designed to handle very high radial and significant axial loads in both directions.
- Self-Aligning Capability: The spherical outer ring raceway allows it to tolerate both static and dynamic angular misalignment.
- Robust Construction: Features two rows of barrel-shaped rollers, providing high strength and rigidity.
- Optimized for Durability: Made from high-purity, ultra-clean steel to extend operational life and withstand harsh conditions.
- Efficient Lubrication: Many designs include an annular groove and lubrication holes in the outer ring for simplified and effective lubrication.
- Dimensional Stability: Heat-treated to ensure stability and performance across a wide range of operating temperatures.
Common Applications
