Product Overview: The 24026 Spherical Roller Bearing
The 24026 Spherical Roller Bearing is a high-capacity component engineered to perform in the most demanding industrial environments. With dimensions of 130x200x69mm, this bearing is part of our robust 24000 Series and a key product in our Spherical Roller Bearings collection. Its design features two rows of symmetrical barrel-shaped rollers in a common sphered outer ring raceway. This configuration allows the 24026 to accommodate significant angular misalignment of the shaft relative to the housing, making it indispensable for applications where shaft deflection or mounting errors are expected.
Built to handle very heavy radial and axial loads in both directions, the 24026 bearing provides exceptional reliability and a long service life. As a trusted supplier of industrial parts, we guarantee that our spherical roller bearings meet stringent quality standards, ensuring optimal performance for heavy machinery and critical equipment. Explore our complete range to find the ideal heavy-duty bearing solution for your needs.
Key Features of the 24026 Bearing
- Superior Load Capacity: Designed with two rows of rollers to support extremely high radial loads and substantial axial loads in both directions.
- Excellent Misalignment Compensation: The spherical outer ring raceway allows for self-alignment, accommodating static and dynamic shaft misalignments.
- Robust Construction: Manufactured from high-purity, hardened bearing steel for exceptional durability, wear resistance, and longevity under harsh conditions.
- Optimized Roller Profile: The roller geometry is designed to minimize friction and heat generation, leading to more efficient operation and reduced energy consumption.
- High Dimensional Stability: Precision engineering ensures consistent dimensions for reliable fitting and performance.
- Versatile Bore Options: Commonly available with either a cylindrical bore for direct shaft mounting or a tapered bore (K-type) for mounting with adapter or withdrawal sleeves.
Common Applications of 24026 Bearings
- Mining and Construction: Used in heavy equipment like rock crushers, vibrating screens, and conveyor systems where high shock loads are common.
- Pulp and Paper Mills: Essential for machinery such as press sections, calendar rolls, and drying cylinders.
- Industrial Gearboxes: Provides reliable support for gears and shafts in large-scale transmission systems.
- Steel Manufacturing: Deployed in continuous casting machines, rolling mills, and other high-temperature, heavy-load applications.
- Wind Turbines: Supports the main shaft and gearbox components, enduring variable loads and operational stresses.
- Marine and Offshore: Used in propulsion systems, winches, and cranes that require robust and reliable bearing solutions.
- Heavy-Duty Fans and Blowers: Ensures smooth operation in large industrial ventilation systems where shaft deflection can occur.
Benefits of Using the 24026 Bearing
- Enhanced Machine Reliability: Its ability to handle heavy loads and misalignment reduces stress on other components, minimizing downtime and costly repairs.
- Extended Operational Life: The durable design and low-friction characteristics contribute to a longer service life for both the bearing and the equipment.
- Reduced Maintenance Costs: High reliability and durability decrease the frequency of maintenance intervals and bearing replacements.
- Improved Performance in Harsh Environments: Maintains operational integrity even when subjected to shock loads, vibration, and contamination.
- Simplified Assembly: The self-aligning feature can simplify the installation process by compensating for initial mounting inaccuracies.
- High Operational Efficiency: Optimized internal design ensures smooth rotation and minimizes power loss due to friction.
