Product Overview: The N 208 Cylindrical Roller Bearing
The N 208 bearing is a high-performance single-row cylindrical roller bearing engineered to handle heavy radial loads at high speeds. With precise dimensions of 40mm bore diameter, 80mm outer diameter, and 18mm thickness, this bearing is a crucial component in a wide array of industrial machinery. As part of our N 200 Series, the N 208 design features two integral flanges on the inner ring and a flangeless outer ring. This configuration allows the bearing to accommodate axial displacement of the shaft relative to the housing in both directions, making it ideal for applications with thermal expansion. Explore our comprehensive range of Cylindrical Roller Bearings to find the perfect solution for your equipment.
Features of the N 208 Bearing
- Axial Displacement Capability: The N-type design allows for free axial movement, compensating for shaft expansion or contraction.
- High Radial Load Capacity: The line contact between rollers and raceways provides excellent capacity for heavy radial loads.
- Separable Design: The inner ring, with its roller and cage assembly, can be mounted independently of the outer ring, simplifying installation, inspection, and maintenance.
- High-Speed Operation: Engineered for low friction and minimal heat generation, making it suitable for high-speed applications.
- Robust Construction: Manufactured from high-quality, clean bearing steel for superior durability and extended service life.
- Single Row Configuration: A versatile and widely used design for various industrial applications.
Applications of N 208 Bearings
- Industrial Gearboxes: Provides robust support for gears and shafts, handling significant radial forces.
- Electric Motors: Used as non-locating bearings to support motor shafts while allowing for thermal expansion.
- Pumps and Compressors: Ensures reliable operation of rotating components under demanding conditions.
- Machine Tool Spindles: Delivers the high rigidity and rotational accuracy required in precision machining.
- Vibrating Machinery: Withstands heavy loads and vibrations in equipment like industrial shakers and screens.
- Automotive Transmissions: A key component in transmission systems for smooth and efficient power transfer.
- Rolling Mills: Used in heavy-duty equipment where high radial loads are prevalent.
Benefits of Using the N 208 Bearing
- Enhanced Machine Reliability: Accommodates thermal expansion of the shaft, preventing stress and premature failure of components.
- Simplified Mounting and Maintenance: The separable design allows for easier and faster assembly and disassembly procedures.
- Improved Operational Efficiency: Low friction characteristics contribute to reduced energy consumption and smoother performance.
- Extended Service Life: The durable construction and high load capacity minimize wear, leading to longer operational life.
- Versatile Performance: Suitable for a broad range of applications requiring high radial capacity and axial freedom. For applications requiring axial location, consider using it with a bearing like the 6208 deep groove ball bearing or a flanged cylindrical roller bearing like the NJ 208.
