Product Overview: The 1309 Self-Aligning Ball Bearing
The 1309 bearing is a high-performance self-aligning ball bearing, featuring precise dimensions of 45mm bore diameter, 100mm outer diameter, and 25mm thickness. As a key component in our extensive 1300 Series Self-Aligning Ball Bearings, it is specifically engineered to accommodate angular misalignment of the shaft relative to the housing. This capability is crucial in applications where perfect alignment cannot be guaranteed or where shaft deflection is a common occurrence.
Our 1309 bearings are manufactured to rigorous industry standards, ensuring exceptional reliability and extended operational life in challenging industrial environments. The design incorporates two rows of balls and a common concave spherical raceway in the outer ring, allowing the bearing to automatically align itself. This self-alignment feature helps prevent premature wear on the bearing and other machine components, reducing maintenance needs and improving overall system efficiency.

Key Features of the 1309 Bearing
- Automatic Misalignment Compensation: Effectively handles both static and dynamic angular misalignment between the shaft and the housing.
- Dual Row Ball Configuration: Enhanced load-carrying capacity due to the two rows of precision-engineered balls.
- Optimized Low Friction: Designed for smooth rotation, reducing heat generation and contributing to a longer service life.
- Precision Manufacturing: Produced with strict adherence to international standards, ensuring dimensional accuracy and consistent performance.
- Robust Construction: Made from high-quality bearing steel for superior wear resistance and long-term durability.
- Versatile Design: Suitable for a wide range of industrial applications where shaft alignment issues may arise.
Common Applications of 1309 Bearings
- Conveyor Systems: Ideal for supporting shafts in conveyor lines that may experience misalignment due to frame distortion or uneven loading.
- Agricultural Equipment: Used in machinery such as harvesters and cultivators where operations occur on uneven terrain, leading to potential shaft deflection.
- Textile Machinery: Ensures smooth and reliable operation of rollers and spindles despite minor shaft misalignments.
- Fans and Blowers: Provides stable rotational support in ventilation systems where shaft deflections can occur during operation.
- Pumps and Compressors: Utilized in fluid handling systems to maintain performance even with slight shaft deviations.
- Woodworking Machinery: Applied in equipment like saws and planers that require dependable rotational support under varying conditions.
- Packaging Machinery: Supports critical moving parts, adapting to slight misalignments for continuous operation.
Benefits of Using the 1309 Bearing
- Increased Machine Reliability: By compensating for misalignment, the bearing reduces stress on surrounding components, minimizing the risk of unexpected breakdowns.
- Extended Operational Life: Self-aligning properties reduce localized stress and friction, significantly extending the service life of both the bearing and the machinery.
- Reduced Maintenance Costs: Less prone to premature failure, leading to a decrease in the frequency and expense of repairs and replacements.
- Improved Energy Efficiency: Low friction design helps in reducing energy consumption, contributing to more cost-effective operations.
- Simplified Installation: The inherent ability to self-align simplifies the mounting process, especially in challenging assembly environments.
- Consistent Performance: Maintains smooth and efficient operation even in conditions that would cause issues for non-aligning bearings.
