Product Overview: The 23136 Spherical Roller Bearing
The 23136 Spherical Roller Bearing is a high-capacity component engineered to perform in the most demanding industrial environments. With principal dimensions of 180x300x96mm, this bearing is a key part of our 23100 Series within the broader Spherical Roller Bearings collection. Its design features two rows of symmetrical barrel rollers and a common sphered outer ring raceway, which allows it to accommodate significant shaft misalignment and deflection. This inherent self-aligning capability makes the 23136 indispensable for applications where maintaining perfect alignment is challenging.
Engineered to handle very heavy radial loads and substantial axial loads in both directions, the 23136 bearing ensures exceptional reliability and a long service life. It is the go-to solution for heavy machinery where robustness and high performance are critical. Explore our comprehensive range of spherical roller bearings to find the ideal solution for your heavy-duty applications.
Features of the 23136 Bearing
- Superior Load Capacity: Designed with two rows of rollers to support extremely high radial and significant bidirectional axial loads.
- Self-Aligning Design: Automatically compensates for angular misalignment between the shaft and housing, reducing stress on the bearing and machinery.
- Robust Construction: Manufactured from high-quality, clean bearing steel for maximum durability and resistance to wear and fatigue.
- Enhanced Lubrication: Typically features an annular groove and lubrication holes in the outer ring to facilitate efficient grease or oil distribution.
- Versatile Mounting: Available with a cylindrical or tapered bore, allowing for mounting directly on a shaft or using an adapter or withdrawal sleeve.
- High Operational Reliability: Engineered to perform under severe conditions, including heavy loads, vibrations, and contamination.
Common Applications
- Mining and Construction: Used in crushers, vibrating screens, conveyor systems, and heavy-duty vehicles where loads are extreme.
- Pulp and Paper Mills: Ideal for paper machine rollers, press sections, and other high-load rotating equipment.
- Industrial Gearboxes: Provides reliable support for gears and shafts in large-scale industrial transmissions.
- Wind Turbines: Essential for the main shafts and gearboxes of wind energy systems, withstanding fluctuating loads.
