Product Overview: The 22224 Spherical Roller Bearing
The 22224 bearing is a high-performance component from our comprehensive 22200 Series of Spherical Roller Bearings. With a robust design featuring a bore diameter of 120 mm, an outer diameter of 215 mm, and a thickness of 58 mm, this bearing is engineered to excel in demanding industrial environments. It is characterized by its two rows of rollers, which share a common spherical outer ring raceway, allowing it to accommodate significant angular misalignment between the shaft and housing without compromising performance. This self-aligning capability makes the 22224 bearing an ideal choice for applications where shaft deflection, errors in mounting, or foundation settling are anticipated.
Our 22224 spherical roller bearings are manufactured to rigorous industry standards, ensuring exceptional reliability, high load-carrying capacity, and extended service life. These bearings are crucial for heavy machinery and equipment, providing stable and efficient operation even under conditions involving heavy radial and axial loads, as well as shock loads. As a trusted supplier of industrial bearings, we are committed to providing robust solutions that enhance the longevity and efficiency of your mechanical systems. Explore our full range of spherical roller bearings to discover the optimal solution for your operational requirements.
