Product Overview: The 22228 Spherical Roller Bearing
The 22228 bearing is a high-performance, robust component within our 22200 Series Spherical Roller Bearings. Engineered for demanding industrial environments, this bearing is designed to handle extremely heavy radial loads and significant axial loads in both directions. Its inherent self-aligning capability allows it to accommodate angular misalignment between the shaft and the housing, making it an ideal solution for applications where shaft deflection or mounting errors are anticipated. With a bore diameter of 140 mm, an outer diameter of 250 mm, and a thickness of 68 mm, the 22228 bearing provides reliable and long-lasting performance.
At our company, we specialize in supplying industrial bearings and mechanical parts crafted to stringent industry standards. The 22228 spherical roller bearing exemplifies this commitment, offering exceptional durability and operational efficiency. Its design features two rows of symmetrical rollers, a common spherical outer ring raceway, and two inner ring raceways inclined at an angle to the bearing axis. This configuration ensures optimal load distribution and reduced friction, even under severe conditions. Invest in the 22228 bearing to enhance the reliability and lifespan of your critical machinery components.
