Product Overview: The 22318 Spherical Roller Bearing
The 22318 bearing is a high-performance component within our comprehensive 22300 Series Spherical Roller Bearings. This robust bearing is specifically engineered to handle extremely heavy radial and axial loads, while also accommodating angular misalignment. Its design features two rows of barrel-shaped rollers, a common spherical outer ring raceway, and two inner ring raceways inclined at an angle to the bearing axis. With dimensions of 90mm bore, 190mm outer diameter, and 64mm thickness, the 22318 bearing is a critical component for demanding industrial applications.
As a trusted supplier of industrial bearings, we provide 22318 bearings manufactured to exacting industry standards, ensuring superior durability and reliable performance in the most challenging operational environments. These bearings are indispensable in heavy machinery where high loads and potential shaft misalignments are prevalent.
