Product Overview: The 22340 Spherical Roller Bearing
The 22340 bearing is a high-performance component within our 22300 Series Spherical Roller Bearings, engineered for demanding industrial applications. With precise dimensions of 200mm bore diameter, 420mm outer diameter, and 138mm thickness, this bearing is designed to accommodate heavy radial and axial loads simultaneously. Its key feature is its inherent ability to compensate for angular misalignment between the shaft and the housing, which can arise from manufacturing inaccuracies, shaft deflection, or foundation settlement. This self-aligning capability prevents stress concentrations and extends the bearing's operational life.
As a trusted supplier of industrial bearings and mechanical parts, we ensure that our 22340 spherical roller bearings meet stringent industry standards for reliability and durability. They are crucial for maintaining smooth and efficient operation in heavy machinery, reducing friction, and minimizing downtime in challenging operational environments. Explore our comprehensive selection of spherical roller bearings to find robust solutions for your specific industrial needs.
Features of the 22340 Bearing
- Self-Aligning Design: Automatically compensates for angular misalignment of the shaft relative to the housing, preventing premature wear and extending life.
