Product Overview: The SA 209 Insert Bearing
The SA 209 is a high-quality insert bearing featuring a 45mm bore diameter, 85mm outer diameter, and a 49.2mm inner ring width. As a key component in our Insert Ball Bearings collection, this bearing is engineered for straightforward installation and reliable performance. It is specifically designed to be mounted within a bearing housing, such as a pillow block or flange unit. The SA 209 utilizes a simple yet effective set screw locking mechanism to secure it firmly to the shaft, making it a popular choice for a wide array of industrial and agricultural applications.
Part of the AEL/SA Series, the SA 209 bearing features a spherical outer ring that allows it to accommodate initial static misalignment when paired with a corresponding housing. This self-aligning capability is crucial in applications where perfect alignment is difficult to achieve, helping to reduce stress on the bearing and extend its operational life. Manufactured from high-grade bearing steel, the SA 209 is built for durability and consistent performance in demanding environments.
Key Features of the SA 209 Bearing
- Set Screw Locking: Features two set screws positioned on the extended inner ring for simple and secure locking onto the shaft.
- Spherical Outer Surface: Allows for initial static misalignment, simplifying installation and reducing operational stress.
- Durable Construction: Made from high-quality bearing steel to ensure longevity and resistance to wear and tear.
- Effective Sealing: Equipped with integral seals to protect against contaminants and retain lubricant, crucial for harsh environments.
- Relubrication Capability: Designed with a lubrication groove and hole on the outer ring for easy maintenance and extended service life.
- Versatile Compatibility: Designed to fit a variety of standard bearing housings, including pillow blocks (P 209), flange units (F 209), and take-up units (T 209).
Common Applications
- Agricultural Machinery: Widely used in equipment like combines, balers, and seeders where reliability is essential.
