Product Overview: The 23234 Spherical Roller Bearing
The 23234 bearing is a high-capacity component engineered for the most demanding industrial environments. As a key part of our 23200 Series, this Spherical Roller Bearing features principal dimensions of 170x310x110mm (Bore x Outer Diameter x Thickness). Its robust design includes two rows of symmetrical barrel rollers that can rotate freely within a common sphered outer ring raceway. This unique construction allows the bearing to tolerate significant angular misalignment and shaft deflection, making it an indispensable solution for heavy-duty machinery where perfect alignment is difficult to achieve or maintain.
Manufactured to exacting industry standards, the 23234 bearing is built to handle severe radial loads and moderate axial loads in both directions. It is the go-to choice for applications that involve heavy loads, shock, and vibration. Explore our comprehensive range of spherical roller bearings to find the optimal solution for your heavy industrial needs.
Features of the 23234 Bearing
- Exceptional Misalignment Compensation: The spherical internal geometry allows the bearing to accommodate static and dynamic misalignment between the shaft and housing.
- High Radial and Axial Load Capacity: The double-row roller design provides superior load-carrying capability, ideal for heavy-duty applications.
- Robust and Durable Construction: Made from high-purity, hardened bearing steel for maximum toughness and extended operational life.
- Optimized for Heavy Industry: Engineered to perform reliably under conditions of shock loads, vibration, and contamination.
- Low-Friction Operation: The internal design is optimized to minimize friction and heat generation, enhancing efficiency and longevity.
- Versatile Mounting Options: Typically available with a cylindrical bore for interference fits or a tapered bore for mounting with adapter or withdrawal sleeves.
Common Applications of 23234 Bearings
