Product Overview: The 23038 Spherical Roller Bearing
The 23038 bearing is a high-capacity component engineered for the most demanding industrial environments. As a key part of our 23000 Series Spherical Roller Bearings, it is designed with a 190mm bore diameter, a 290mm outer diameter, and a 75mm thickness. This bearing excels in applications involving heavy radial loads, significant axial loads in both directions, and severe misalignment. Its internal design, featuring two rows of symmetrical barrel rollers and a common sphered raceway in the outer ring, allows it to accommodate shaft deflection and alignment errors without compromising performance.
Manufactured to exacting industry standards, the 23038 ensures exceptional reliability and a long service life. Its robust construction makes it an indispensable part for heavy machinery where durability and consistent operation are critical. Trust our extensive range of spherical roller bearings to provide the strength and resilience your equipment requires.
