Product Overview: The 22244 Spherical Roller Bearing
The 22244 bearing is a high-capacity, self-aligning component, an integral part of our robust 22200 Series Spherical Roller Bearings. With impressive dimensions of 220mm bore diameter, 400mm outer diameter, and 108mm thickness, this bearing is engineered to perform reliably under the most demanding industrial conditions. 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, allowing it to accommodate significant angular misalignment of the shaft relative to the housing. This inherent self-aligning capability prevents premature wear and ensures smooth operation even when shaft deflections or mounting errors occur.
As a trusted supplier of industrial bearings and mechanical parts, we provide 22244 spherical roller bearings manufactured to exacting standards, ensuring exceptional durability and performance. These bearings are designed to carry heavy radial loads, as well as moderate axial loads in both directions. Their robust construction makes them indispensable in heavy machinery across various sectors, where reliability and load-carrying capacity are paramount. Explore our comprehensive range of spherical roller bearings to find the ideal solution for your specific industrial challenges.
