Product Overview: The 29413 Spherical Roller Thrust Bearing
The 29413 is a high-capacity Spherical Roller Thrust Bearing, engineered to perform under the most demanding conditions. As a key component in our 29400 Series of Spherical Roller Thrust Bearings, this bearing is specifically designed to handle extremely heavy axial (thrust) loads while also accommodating radial loads. With principal dimensions of 65x140x45mm, its robust construction is ideal for heavy-duty industrial applications where shaft deflection or misalignment is a concern. The unique spherical raceway in the housing washer allows the bearing to self-align, ensuring optimal load distribution across the rollers and extending the operational life of your machinery.
Key Features of the 29413 Bearing
- Exceptional Axial Load Capacity: Engineered with a large number of asymmetrical rollers to support very high unidirectional thrust loads.
- Self-Aligning Capability: The spherical housing raceway compensates for angular misalignment between the shaft and housing, preventing edge stresses.
- Accommodates Radial Loads: In addition to thrust loads, it can handle moderate simultaneous radial loads.
- Separable Design: The shaft washer, housing washer, and roller/cage assembly can be mounted independently, simplifying installation and inspection.
- Robust Construction: Manufactured from high-purity, hardened bearing steel for superior durability and wear resistance.
- Optimized for High Performance: The roller and raceway profiles are designed to ensure even stress distribution and reduce friction, allowing for higher operational speeds.
Common Applications
- Injection Molding Machines: Provides crucial support for the screw mechanism under high pressure.
- Heavy-Duty Gearboxes: Used in industrial and marine gearboxes to manage significant axial forces.
- Cranes and Hoists: Essential for supporting rotating components like crane hooks and swivels.
- Pulp and Paper Processing: Ideal for use in refiners, propellers, and other machinery with heavy vertical shafts.
- Extruders: Supports the high thrust loads generated during the extrusion process in plastics and metal industries.
- Marine Propulsion Systems: Used in ship thrusters and propeller shafts to handle immense axial forces.
- Mining and Construction Equipment: Provides reliable performance in crushers, pulverizers, and drilling rigs.
