Product Overview: The 23130 Spherical Roller Bearing
The 23130 Spherical Roller Bearing is a high-capacity, double-row, self-aligning bearing designed for the most demanding industrial applications. With core dimensions of 150mm Bore Diameter, 250mm Outer Diameter, and 80mm Thickness, this bearing is engineered to handle very heavy radial loads and significant axial loads in both directions. As a key component in our Spherical Roller Bearings collection and part of the 23100 Series, it features a unique internal design that allows it to tolerate misalignment between the shaft and housing without compromising performance.
The 23130 bearing's robust construction makes it an indispensable part for heavy machinery operating in harsh environments. Its two rows of symmetrical barrel rollers and common sphered outer ring raceway provide excellent compensation for shaft deflection and alignment errors, ensuring smooth and reliable operation. This reduces stress on machinery, minimizes downtime, and extends the operational life of your equipment.
Key Features of the 23130 Bearing
- Self-Aligning Capability: Automatically compensates for angular misalignment and shaft deflection, reducing stress on the bearing and other machine components.
- High Load Capacity: Designed to accommodate extremely high radial and substantial axial loads, making it suitable for heavy-duty applications.
- Double Row Roller Design: Features two rows of barrel-shaped rollers for maximum load distribution and operational stability.
- Robust and Durable: Manufactured from high-quality bearing steel to ensure exceptional hardness, wear resistance, and a long service life under tough conditions.
- Optimized Internal Geometry: Engineered for low friction and reduced operating temperatures, enhancing efficiency and reliability.
- Versatile Mounting Options: Can be mounted directly onto a cylindrical shaft or used with an H 3130 adapter sleeve on a stepped shaft.
Common Applications of 23130 Bearings
- Mining and Quarrying: Used in crushers, vibrating screens, and conveyor systems where heavy loads and misalignment are common.
- Construction Equipment: Essential for heavy machinery such as excavators, cranes, and earthmovers.
- Industrial Gearboxes: Provides reliable support for gears and shafts in large-scale industrial transmissions.
- Pulp and Paper Mills: Ideal for use in rollers, presses, and processing equipment that operate under severe conditions.
- Steel Manufacturing: Found in continuous casting machines, rolling mills, and other high-temperature, high-load equipment.
- Wind Turbines: Supports main shafts and gearboxes, withstanding the variable loads and operational stresses of power generation.
- Marine and Offshore: Used in propulsion systems, winches, and cranes where reliability is critical.
Benefits of Using the 23130 Bearing
