Product Overview: The 23124 Spherical Roller Bearing
The 23124 bearing is a high-capacity, double-row spherical roller bearing with dimensions of 120x200x62mm. As a key component in our Spherical Roller Bearings collection, it is engineered to withstand the most demanding industrial conditions. Part of the robust 23100 Series, this bearing is specifically designed to handle very heavy radial loads and significant axial loads in both directions. Its defining feature is the spherical raceway in the outer ring, which allows it to accommodate shaft deflection and misalignment between the shaft and housing, ensuring continued, reliable operation.
Manufactured from high-purity bearing steel, the 23124 bearing offers exceptional durability and resistance to wear. It is an indispensable component in heavy machinery where reliability is paramount. As a leading supplier of industrial mechanical parts, we provide bearings that meet stringent industry standards for performance and longevity. This bearing is often mounted using an H 2324 adapter sleeve for tapered shafts.
Key Features of the 23124 Bearing
- Superior Load Capacity: Designed with two rows of symmetrical barrel rollers to manage extremely high radial and axial loads.
- Self-Aligning Capability: The spherical outer ring raceway compensates for angular misalignment, reducing stress on the bearing and extending machine life.
- Robust Construction: Made from premium, through-hardened bearing steel for maximum toughness and service life in harsh environments.
- Enhanced Lubrication: Typically features an annular groove and lubrication holes in the outer ring to facilitate effective grease or oil supply.
- Tapered Bore Design: Commonly supplied with a tapered bore (K suffix) for secure mounting on shafts using adapter or withdrawal sleeves.
- High Operational Reliability: Engineered for low friction and optimized internal geometry, ensuring stable performance under heavy and fluctuating loads.
Common Applications
- Mining and Construction: Ideal for crushers, vibrating screens, conveyor systems, and heavy-duty earth-moving equipment.
- Industrial Gearboxes: Provides reliable support for gears and shafts in large, high-torque industrial transmissions.
- Pulp and Paper Mills: Used in machinery such as calendars, press sections, and pulpers that operate under heavy loads and wet conditions.
