Product Overview: The 23152 Spherical Roller Bearing
The 23152 Spherical Roller Bearing is a high-capacity component engineered for the most demanding industrial environments. With principal dimensions of 260x440x144mm, 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. This self-aligning capability is crucial in applications where maintaining perfect alignment is challenging, preventing premature wear and extending machinery life.
Engineered to handle very heavy radial loads and substantial axial loads in both directions, the 23152 is an essential part for heavy machinery. As a trusted supplier of industrial components, we ensure our spherical roller bearings meet stringent quality standards, delivering reliability and peak performance under severe operating conditions.
Key Features of the 23152 Bearing
- Superior Load Capacity: Designed to withstand extremely high radial and axial loads, making it ideal for heavy-duty applications.
- Self-Aligning Design: Automatically compensates for angular misalignment between the shaft and housing, reducing stress on the bearing and other components.
- Robust Construction: Manufactured from high-purity, hardened bearing steel for exceptional durability and resistance to wear and fatigue.
- Dual Roller Rows: Two rows of symmetrical barrel-shaped rollers provide excellent load distribution and operational stability.
- Optimized Internal Geometry: Engineered for low friction and reduced operating temperatures, enhancing efficiency and service life.
- Tapered Bore Option: Commonly available with a tapered bore for secure mounting using adapter or withdrawal sleeves on cylindrical shafts.
