BS2B 248180 Double Roller Spherical Bearing for Cement Concrete Mixer Truck 248180 BS2B Spherical Bearing for Concrete Mixer

What are spherical roller bearings used for?

Spherical roller bearings are often used in applications where there is a requirement for heavy-duty operation. These include earthmoving equipment, mining machines, industrial machinery, construction vehicles, marine vessels, wind turbines, and so on.

Why is it called a spherical roller bearing?

It is called a spherical roller bearing due to its unique construction, which includes a spherical-shaped outer ring raceway, barrel-shaped rollers, and an inner ring with two raceways. 

What is the difference between self aligning ball bearings and spherical roller bearing?

Self-aligning ball bearings suit light loads with high-speed rotation, while spherical roller bearings suit heavy loads with low-speed rotation.

What makes the BS2B248180 Spherical Roller Bearing suitable for heavy load and vibrating applications?

The BS2B248180 Spherical Roller Bearing is designed with a unique self-aligning feature and a high capacity for radial and axial loads. Its internal structure incorporates a 240 series outer ring with two rows of barrel-shaped rollers, separated by a cage, which accommodates tilting movements up to a certain angle. The 'C' in its designation signifies a high-strength machined brass cage, ensuring reliable roller guidance even under harsh vibrational conditions. The 'AK30' indicates a 30-degree contact angle, which enhances its ability to handle combined loads and resist skewing, making it ideal for applications involving heavy loads and continuous vibrations.
