Product Overview: The 23044 Spherical Roller Bearing
The 23044 Spherical Roller Bearing is a high-capacity component engineered for the most demanding industrial environments. With core dimensions of 220x340x90mm (Bore x Outer Diameter x Thickness), this bearing is a key part of our 23000 Series and the broader Spherical Roller Bearings collection. Its design features two rows of symmetrical barrel rollers and a common sphered raceway in the outer ring. This configuration allows the bearing to accommodate significant shaft deflection and misalignment, making it indispensable for heavy-duty machinery where maintaining perfect alignment is challenging.
As a premier supplier of industrial components, we ensure our 23044 bearings meet stringent quality standards for reliable and long-lasting performance. These bearings are designed to handle very high radial loads and substantial axial loads in both directions, providing exceptional operational stability and reducing maintenance requirements in critical applications.
Key Features of the 23044 Bearing
- Self-Aligning Capability: Automatically compensates for angular misalignment between the shaft and housing, preventing excessive stress and premature failure.
- High Load Capacity: The double-row roller design provides superior capacity for both heavy radial and axial loads, making it ideal for extreme conditions.
- Robust Construction: Manufactured from high-purity, hardened bearing steel for exceptional durability, wear resistance, and long service life.
- Optimized Internal Design: Engineered for low friction and reduced operating temperatures, enhancing efficiency and reliability.
- Dimensional Stability: Precision-manufactured to ensure consistent performance and interchangeability.
- Versatile Mounting: Can be used with a cylindrical bore or mounted on a tapered shaft using an H 2344 adapter sleeve.
Common Applications of 23044 Bearings
- Mining and Quarrying: Widely used in rock crushers, vibrating screens, and conveyor systems that operate under heavy loads and harsh conditions.
- Construction Equipment: Essential for heavy machinery like excavators, cranes, and large earthmovers.
- Steel and Metal Mills: Found in rolling mills, continuous casters, and other high-temperature, high-load equipment.
