Product Overview: The 2310 Self-Aligning Ball Bearing
The 2310 bearing is a robust and highly capable component from our 2300 Series of Self-Aligning Ball Bearings. With dimensions of 50x110x40mm, this bearing is engineered to accommodate significant static and dynamic angular misalignment between the shaft and housing. Its innovative design incorporates two rows of balls and a common sphered raceway in the outer ring, which allows it to self-align, reducing stress on the shaft and extending the lifespan of machinery. This makes it particularly effective in applications where shaft deflection or mounting errors are a concern.
As a premier supplier of industrial components, we ensure our 2310 bearings are manufactured to precise industry standards for reliable and consistent performance. This bearing is an excellent choice for heavy-duty applications requiring dependable operation under challenging conditions. For applications requiring mounting on a tapered shaft seat, this bearing is often used with an H 2310 adapter sleeve.
Key Features of the 2310 Bearing
- Superior Self-Alignment: Automatically compensates for angular misalignment, ensuring smooth operation and preventing premature wear.
- High Load Capacity: The dual-row ball design provides a higher capacity for radial loads compared to single-row bearings.
- Robust Construction: Manufactured from high-quality bearing steel for exceptional durability and resistance to wear and fatigue.
- Low-Friction Performance: Engineered to minimize rotational friction, which reduces operating temperature and improves energy efficiency.
- Tapered Bore Option: Often available with a tapered bore (designated with a 'K' suffix) for secure mounting with adapter sleeves on plain shafts.
- Dimensional Stability: Precision engineered to maintain its shape and performance under demanding operational stresses.
Common Applications
- Agricultural Machinery: Ideal for use in harvesters, combines, and tractors where shafts are subject to flexing and misalignment.
- Conveyor Systems: Provides reliable support for rollers and pulleys, especially in long conveyor runs where structural sagging can occur.
- Mining and Construction Equipment: Used in crushers, screens, and heavy-duty vehicles that operate in harsh and uneven environments.
- Fans and Blowers: Ensures smooth, quiet operation in large industrial fans where shaft deflection at high speeds is common.
- Pulp and Paper Mills: Suitable for machinery like rollers and presses that require robust bearings to handle heavy loads and potential misalignment.
- Textile Machinery: Supports rotating components in looms and spinning machines, maintaining performance despite vibrations and shaft movement.
Benefits of Using the 2310 Bearing
- Enhanced Machinery Lifespan: By accommodating misalignment, it reduces stress on the shaft and other components, leading to longer service life.
- Reduced Maintenance Costs: The bearing's durability and ability to handle imperfections in alignment reduce the frequency of costly repairs and downtime.
- Improved Operational Reliability: Provides consistent and dependable performance even in applications with shaft deflection or mounting inaccuracies.
- Simplified Installation: The self-aligning feature can simplify the mounting process, as it is more forgiving of minor alignment errors.
- Versatile and Adaptable: Suitable for a wide array of heavy-duty industrial applications where perfect alignment is not always achievable.
- Increased Uptime: Reliable performance translates to fewer unexpected failures, maximizing the productivity of your equipment.
