Product Overview: The 32308 Tapered Roller Bearing
The 32308 Tapered Roller Bearing is a robust, single-row bearing designed to handle heavy combined radial and axial loads. With dimensions of 40x90x35.25mm, this component is part of the versatile 32300 Series within our extensive range of Tapered Roller Bearings. Its design consists of two main separable parts: the cone (inner ring, rollers, and cage) and the cup (outer ring). This separability simplifies mounting, dismounting, and maintenance procedures. The tapered geometry of the rollers and raceways creates a true rolling motion and low friction, making the 32308 bearing an ideal choice for applications requiring high precision and durability under demanding conditions.
Features of the 32308 Bearing
- High Load Capacity: Engineered to accommodate significant combined (radial and axial) loads in one direction.
- Separable Design: The cone and cup are separable, allowing for easier installation, inspection, and maintenance.
- Tapered Geometry: Reduces friction and ensures smooth, efficient operation by providing true rolling motion.
- High Rigidity: Offers excellent support for rotating shafts, minimizing deflection and enhancing system stability.
- Adjustable Clearance: Can be set with a specific axial clearance or preload during mounting to optimize performance for various applications.
- Durable Construction: Manufactured from high-quality bearing steel for superior strength, wear resistance, and long service life.
Applications of 32308 Bearings
