Product Overview: The 22234 Spherical Roller Bearing
The 22234 bearing is a high-performance component within our 22200 Series of Spherical Roller Bearings. Designed for applications subjected to heavy radial loads, moderate axial loads in both directions, and especially capable of accommodating significant angular misalignment, this bearing is a cornerstone of robust industrial machinery. Its robust design features two rows of rollers, a common spherical outer ring raceway, and two inner ring raceways inclined at an angle to the bearing axis, allowing it to self-align under various operating conditions. With precise dimensions of 170mm Bore Diameter, 310mm Outer Diameter, and 86mm Thickness, the 22234 bearing is built to deliver exceptional reliability and longevity even in the most demanding environments. We ensure that our spherical roller bearings meet stringent industry standards, making them an ideal choice for critical applications where uninterrupted operation is paramount.
