Product Overview: The N 204 Cylindrical Roller Bearing
The N 204 bearing is a high-capacity, single-row cylindrical roller bearing with principal dimensions of 20x47x14mm. As a key component in our Cylindrical Roller Bearings collection, this model is part of the esteemed N 200 Series. It is specifically engineered to handle high radial loads at high rotational speeds. The 'N' design features two integral flanges on the inner ring and a flangeless outer ring. This unique configuration allows the bearing to accommodate axial displacement of the shaft relative to the housing in both directions, making it an excellent choice for non-locating bearing positions.
Manufactured to precise industry standards, the N 204 ensures reliable and efficient performance in demanding industrial environments. Its separable design, where the inner ring with the roller and cage assembly can be mounted independently of the outer ring, simplifies both installation and maintenance procedures.
Key Features of the N 204 Bearing
- High Radial Load Capacity: The line contact between the rollers and raceways provides excellent capacity for heavy radial loads.
- Axial Displacement Capability: The flangeless outer ring allows for axial movement, compensating for thermal expansion or mounting inaccuracies between the shaft and housing.
- Separable Design: Components can be mounted separately, which simplifies the assembly and dismounting process, especially in tight-fit applications.
- High-Speed Performance: Engineered with low-friction characteristics, making it suitable for applications requiring high rotational speeds.
- Robust Construction: Made from premium, high-purity bearing steel for exceptional durability, wear resistance, and a long service life.
- Dimensional Stability: Precision manufacturing ensures consistent dimensions and interchangeability.
