Product Overview: The 23244 Spherical Roller Bearing
The 23244 Spherical Roller Bearing is a high-capacity component engineered for the most demanding industrial environments. As a key part of our 23200 Series of Spherical Roller Bearings, this bearing features principal dimensions of 220x400x108mm (Bore x Outer Diameter x Thickness). Its design, featuring two rows of symmetrical barrel rollers and a common sphered outer ring raceway, allows it to accommodate heavy radial loads, significant axial loads in both directions, and severe misalignment. This makes the 23244 an indispensable solution for machinery where shaft deflection or mounting errors are a concern.
Manufactured to exacting standards from high-purity, through-hardened bearing steel, the 23244 offers exceptional durability and a long service life. Its robust construction ensures reliable performance under shock loads and vibrations, making it a cornerstone of heavy industrial applications worldwide. Explore our comprehensive range of spherical roller bearings to find the ideal solution for your machinery.
Key Features of the 23244 Bearing
- High Load-Carrying Capacity: Designed with two rows of rollers to handle extremely heavy radial and axial loads.
- Superior Misalignment Compensation: The spherical internal design allows the bearing to self-align, compensating for shaft deflection and mounting inaccuracies.
- Robust Construction: Made from high-grade bearing steel for maximum toughness and wear resistance in harsh conditions.
- Optimized for Heavy Industry: Engineered to withstand the shock loads, vibrations, and challenging environments common in heavy machinery.
- Reduced Friction Design: The internal geometry is optimized to minimize friction and heat generation, leading to improved efficiency and longer service life.
- Symmetrical Barrel Rollers: Provides optimal load distribution along the roller length, enhancing the bearing's overall performance and reliability.
