In the various breeds of bearing, spherical roller bearing is known for uniqueness. The bearing has two rows of rollers covered with a common sphered raceway in the outer ring. It has two rows of rollers arranged symmetrically. The center point of this spherical outer ring is in the direction of its axis. We can call it a rolling element bearing because it carries the load by placing the rolling element in between the two bearings. This rotating element is responsible to handle the lot load and friction.
Spherical roller bearing has its own unique stand in the market because it can accommodate any heavier axial loads with the lower operating temperatures. These bearings can also operated at too high speed. These bearings are available with the cylindrical bore and tapered bore.
In another term, we can say spherical roller bearing is self aligned bearing. It is designed to handle the misalignment caused by shaft deflection or mounting.
It extends reliability due to the lubricant film it has within it. It also handles the misalignment caused by the shaft deflection.
It has a long service life because it contains the practically ideal roller set with high tolerance. It also prevents stress by dividing the load between the high strength roller set.
The touchy feature of it is, self guiding rollers can divide the generated heat and friction into unloaded rollers. So it has low friction by managing the friction properly.
After knowing why, let’s have a look at its applications.
The spherical bearing has wide and awesome features. So it has an unbeatable stand in the market. Let’s have a look where it is more preferable.
These bearings used in heavy machines, turbines, construction equipment, complex mechanical fans, mining and fiberglass plant. It is also used in ring rolling, plastic making machinery, stone crusher and many more.
