Product Overview: The 24060 Spherical Roller Bearing
The 24060 Spherical Roller Bearing is an exceptionally robust component designed for the most demanding industrial applications. With principal dimensions of 300mm bore diameter, 460mm outer diameter, and 118mm thickness, this bearing is engineered to handle extreme loads and challenging operating conditions. As part of our high-performance 24000 Series, it belongs to the family of Spherical Roller Bearings, renowned for their self-aligning capabilities and high load-carrying capacity.
The 24060 bearing features two rows of symmetrical barrel-shaped rollers and a common sphered raceway in the outer ring. This innovative design allows it to accommodate significant shaft deflection and misalignment between the shaft and housing without compromising performance. It is an indispensable component in heavy machinery where reliability and longevity are critical. Trust us as your premier supplier for industrial parts that deliver superior performance in harsh environments.
Key Features of the 24060 Bearing
- Self-Aligning Design: Automatically compensates for angular misalignment and shaft deflection, reducing stress on the bearing and extending machine life.
- High Load Capacity: Engineered to support very high radial loads and substantial axial loads in both directions, making it ideal for heavy-duty use.
- Double-Row Roller Configuration: Two rows of barrel rollers provide excellent stability and load distribution.
- Durable Construction: Manufactured from high-grade bearing steel for exceptional hardness, wear resistance, and dimensional stability under load.
- Optimized for Tough Environments: Designed to perform reliably in applications involving heavy shock loads, vibrations, and contamination.
- Cylindrical or Tapered Bore Options: Often available with a tapered bore for mounting with adapter or withdrawal sleeves, simplifying installation and maintenance.
Common Applications
- Mining and Quarrying Equipment: Used in rock crushers, conveyor systems, and vibrating screens that experience severe shock and heavy loads.
- Steel and Metal Rolling Mills: Essential for supporting rollers and gearboxes in both hot and cold rolling processes.
- Pulp and Paper Industry: Found in paper machine rollers, press sections, and pulpers where high loads and moisture are present.
- Heavy-Duty Gearboxes: Provides reliable support for gears and shafts in large industrial transmissions and wind turbines.
