Product Overview: The 5318 Double-Row Angular Contact Ball Bearing
The 5318 bearing is a high-capacity, double-row angular contact ball bearing with dimensions of 90x190x73mm. As a key component in our 5300 Series, it is engineered to handle combined radial and axial loads in both directions, making it exceptionally versatile. This bearing is designed as two single-row angular contact ball bearings arranged back-to-back but with a narrower width, providing a compact and rigid solution for various industrial applications.
Manufactured from premium-grade bearing steel, the 5318 offers excellent durability and performance under demanding conditions. Its design provides a high degree of stiffness, making it ideal for applications where shaft rigidity and resistance to tilting moments are critical.
