Product Overview: The 23140 Spherical Roller Bearing
The 23140 is a high-capacity spherical roller bearing engineered to perform in the most demanding industrial environments. With principal dimensions of 200mm Bore Diameter, 340mm Outer Diameter, and 112mm Thickness, this bearing is part of our robust 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 without compromising performance. This self-aligning capability makes it an essential component for heavy machinery where maintaining perfect alignment is challenging.
Manufactured from high-purity, hardened steel, the 23140 bearing is built for exceptional durability and longevity. It is specifically designed to handle very heavy radial loads and moderate axial loads in both directions, making it a reliable choice for a wide range of heavy-duty applications. Trust our expertise to provide top-quality components that enhance the reliability and efficiency of your machinery.
Key Features of the 23140 Bearing
- Superior Load Capacity: Double-row roller design provides excellent capacity for heavy radial and axial loads.
- Self-Aligning Properties: The spherical raceway in the outer ring compensates for dynamic and static misalignment, reducing stress on the shaft and housing.
- Robust Construction: Made from high-grade bearing steel for maximum wear resistance and service life under extreme conditions.
- Low-Friction Operation: Optimized internal geometry minimizes friction and heat generation, ensuring efficient performance.
- Dimensional Stability: Precision-engineered to maintain its shape and function even under high temperatures and heavy loads.
- Versatile Mounting: Suitable for mounting with an adapter sleeve such as the H 3140 on smooth or stepped shafts.
Common Applications
- Mining and Quarrying: Ideal for crushers, vibrating screens, and heavy-duty conveyor systems.
- Construction Machinery: Used in earthmovers, cranes, and other large construction vehicles.
- Pulp and Paper Mills: Essential for rollers, press sections, and other processing equipment.
- Industrial Gearboxes: Provides reliable support for gears and shafts in large-scale transmission systems.
- Steel Manufacturing: Suitable for rolling mills and continuous casting machines.
- Wind Turbines: Supports the main rotor shaft, withstanding heavy and fluctuating loads.
- Marine and Offshore: Used in propulsion systems, winches, and deck machinery.
Benefits of Using the 23140 Bearing
- Enhanced Machine Uptime: The bearing's ability to handle misalignment and heavy loads reduces the risk of premature failure and costly downtime.
- Extended Service Life: Durable materials and design lead to a longer operational lifespan for both the bearing and the associated equipment.
- Reduced Maintenance Costs: High reliability and durability minimize the need for frequent inspections, repairs, and replacements.
- Improved Operational Safety: Stable and predictable performance contributes to a safer working environment.
- High Performance in Harsh Environments: Capable of withstanding shock loads, vibrations, and contamination common in heavy industry.
