Product Overview: The 22324 Spherical Roller Bearing
The 22324 bearing is a robust and high-capacity spherical roller bearing, forming a critical part of our comprehensive 22300 Series Spherical Roller Bearings. With precise dimensions of a 120mm bore diameter, 260mm outer diameter, and 86mm thickness, this bearing is engineered to accommodate heavy radial loads, as well as significant axial loads in both directions. Its double-row design, featuring spherical raceways in both inner and outer rings, allows for inherent angular misalignment. This self-aligning capability makes the 22324 an ideal choice for applications where shaft deflection or mounting errors are anticipated or unavoidable.
Our selection of industrial bearings and mechanical parts, including the 22324, adheres to stringent industry standards, ensuring exceptional durability and reliable performance in the most demanding industrial environments. Spherical roller bearings like the 22324 are indispensable in heavy machinery, providing smooth and efficient operation under extreme conditions. Explore our full range of spherical roller bearings to discover robust solutions for your specific industrial requirements.
