Product Overview: The 23036 Spherical Roller Bearing
The 23036 is a high-capacity spherical roller bearing designed for the most demanding industrial environments. With dimensions of 180x280x74mm, this bearing is a key component in our Spherical Roller Bearings collection and part of the robust 23000 Series. Its design features two rows of symmetrical barrel rollers and a common sphered outer ring raceway, which allows it to accommodate significant shaft misalignment and deflection. This self-aligning capability is crucial for applications where maintaining perfect alignment is challenging, preventing premature wear and extending machine life.
Engineered to handle very heavy radial and substantial axial loads in both directions, the 23036 bearing is manufactured from high-purity, hardened steel for exceptional durability and reliability. It is an indispensable part for heavy machinery operating under severe conditions, providing stable and efficient performance.
Key Features of the 23036 Bearing
- Superior Load Capacity: Designed with two rows of rollers to manage extremely high radial and axial loads, making it ideal for heavy-duty applications.
- Self-Aligning Properties: Automatically compensates for angular misalignment between the shaft and housing, reducing stress on the bearing and other machine components.
- Robust Construction: Manufactured from high-quality bearing steel to ensure strength, toughness, and resistance to wear and fatigue.
- Optimized Internal Design: The geometry of the rollers and raceways is engineered to minimize friction and heat generation, leading to smoother operation.
- High Operational Reliability: Provides consistent performance even under conditions of heavy loads, vibration, and potential misalignment.
- Dimensional Stability: Heat-treated to maintain its shape and integrity across a wide range of operating temperatures.
Common Applications
- Mining and Construction: Widely used in rock crushers, vibrating screens, conveyor systems, and heavy-earthmoving equipment.
- Steel and Metal Processing: Essential for rolling mills, continuous casters, and other high-temperature, high-load machinery.
- Pulp and Paper Industry: Found in press sections, drying cylinders, and calender rolls where heavy loads and moisture are present.
- Industrial Gearboxes: Provides reliable support for gears and shafts in large-scale industrial transmissions and speed reducers.
- Wind Energy: Used in the main shafts and gearboxes of wind turbines to handle fluctuating, heavy loads.
- Marine and Offshore: Applied in marine propulsion systems, rudder stocks, and deck machinery due to its robustness and reliability.
- Power Generation: Suitable for use in various types of heavy rotating machinery within power plants.
