Product Overview: The 23032 Spherical Roller Bearing
The 23032 bearing is a high-performance, heavy-duty component, proudly part of our extensive 23000 Series Spherical Roller Bearings. Designed with a bore diameter of 160 mm, an outer diameter of 240 mm, and a thickness of 60 mm, this robust bearing is engineered to withstand extreme conditions. Its defining characteristic is its ability to accommodate significant angular misalignment of the shaft relative to the housing, making it indispensable in applications where structural deformation or mounting errors are anticipated.
Spherical roller bearings like the 23032 feature two rows of rollers, a common spherical raceway in the outer ring, and two inner ring raceways inclined at an angle to the bearing axis. This design allows them to carry very heavy radial loads and moderate axial loads in both directions. As a crucial element in various industrial machinery, the 23032 ensures reliable operation and extended service life even under the toughest conditions, including high shock loads and vibrations. We provide only high-quality industrial bearings to meet the demanding requirements of modern industry.
Key Features of the 23032 Bearing
- High Load-Carrying Capacity: Engineered with multiple large rollers, the 23032 can support very heavy radial loads and substantial axial loads in both directions.
- Self-Aligning Capability: Automatically compensates for angular misalignment between the shaft and the housing, reducing stress and preventing premature wear.
- Robust Construction: Manufactured from high-grade bearing steel, offering exceptional durability and resistance to wear and fatigue.
- Vibration and Shock Resistance: Designed to perform reliably in environments with high levels of vibration and sudden shock loads.
- Dual Row Roller Design: Utilizes two rows of symmetrically arranged barrel-shaped rollers for optimized load distribution.
- Temperature Stability: Capable of operating effectively across a wide range of temperatures, ensuring consistent performance.
