Product Overview: The 23240 Spherical Roller Bearing
The 23240 Spherical Roller Bearing is a high-performance component engineered to withstand the most demanding industrial environments. With principal dimensions of 200x360x128mm, this bearing is part of our robust 23200 Series and a cornerstone of our Spherical Roller Bearings collection. Its design features two rows of symmetrical barrel-shaped rollers and a common sphered raceway in the outer ring. This unique construction allows the bearing to accommodate significant shaft misalignment and deflection, making it an indispensable solution for heavy-duty applications where precision under stress is critical.
As a premier supplier of industrial parts, we provide 23240 bearings manufactured to stringent industry standards, ensuring exceptional durability and reliability. These bearings are designed to handle very high radial loads and substantial axial loads in both directions, delivering superior performance in machinery subjected to harsh conditions and heavy operational demands.
Key Features of the 23240 Bearing
- Superior Load Capacity: Designed to carry extremely high radial and significant axial loads, making it ideal for heavy-duty machinery.
- Self-Aligning Capability: The spherical outer raceway allows for compensation of angular misalignment between the shaft and housing, reducing stress on the bearing and extending machine life.
- Robust Construction: Manufactured from high-purity, hardened bearing steel for exceptional wear resistance and longevity.
- Two-Row Roller Design: Features two rows of symmetrical barrel rollers for optimal load distribution and operational stability.
- Optimized for Harsh Environments: Capable of performing reliably under conditions of heavy contamination, vibration, and shock loads.
- Tapered or Cylindrical Bore: Available in different bore configurations to accommodate various mounting methods, including use with H 2340 adapter sleeves.
