Product Overview: The 22320 Spherical Roller Bearing
The 22320 spherical roller bearing is a high-performance industrial component, part of our robust 22300 Series Spherical Roller Bearings. With impressive dimensions of 100mm bore diameter, 215mm outer diameter, and 73mm thickness, this bearing is engineered to accommodate extremely heavy radial and axial loads, even in the presence of misalignment. Its unique design features two rows of symmetrical rollers, a common spherical raceway in the outer ring, and two inner ring raceways inclined at an angle to the bearing axis. This allows for superior self-alignment, making it an ideal choice for applications where shaft deflection or mounting errors are inevitable.
As a key offering in our range of industrial bearings and mechanical parts, the 22320 bearing is manufactured to stringent industry standards, ensuring exceptional reliability and longevity in the most demanding environments. It provides crucial support for rotational machinery, enabling smooth operation and minimizing friction even under challenging conditions such as heavy shock loads, vibrations, and high speeds. We are committed to supplying high-quality, durable bearings that enhance the performance and lifespan of your industrial equipment.
