Product Overview: The 22216 Spherical Roller Bearing
The 22216 spherical roller bearing is a high-performance, heavy-duty component designed to manage significant radial and axial loads, while simultaneously accommodating misalignment between the shaft and housing. With a precise bore diameter of 80mm, an outer diameter of 140mm, and a thickness of 33mm, this bearing is engineered for demanding industrial applications. As a crucial member of our 22200 Series Spherical Roller Bearings, it features two rows of rollers, a common spherical raceway in the outer ring, and two inner ring raceways inclined at an angle to the bearing axis. This robust internal geometry allows the bearing to self-align, effectively compensating for angular errors arising from shaft deflection or mounting inaccuracies.
We specialize in providing top-tier industrial bearings and mechanical parts, ensuring that our 22216 bearings meet rigorous industry standards for durability and reliability. This bearing type is essential in machinery operating under harsh conditions, where high loads, shocks, and vibrations are prevalent. Its ability to maintain performance despite misalignment significantly reduces stress on other system components, leading to prolonged machinery life and reduced maintenance requirements. Explore our comprehensive selection of spherical roller bearings to find the optimal solution for your industrial needs.
