Product Overview: The N 214 Cylindrical Roller Bearing
The N 214 Cylindrical Roller Bearing is a high-capacity component designed to handle heavy radial loads at high speeds. With dimensions of 70x125x24mm, this bearing is a key part of our N 200 Series within the broader Cylindrical Roller Bearings collection. The 'N' designation signifies a specific design where the inner ring features two integral flanges, while the outer ring is flangeless. This configuration allows the bearing to accommodate axial displacement of the shaft relative to the housing in both directions, making it ideal for non-locating bearing positions in machinery where thermal expansion or mounting inaccuracies occur.
Manufactured to exacting industry standards, the N 214 bearing offers exceptional reliability and a long service life. Its separable design simplifies the mounting and dismounting process, as the inner ring can be fitted independently of the outer ring and roller assembly. This feature is particularly useful in applications requiring tight interference fits.
Key Features of the N 214 Bearing
- High Radial Load Capacity: The line contact between rollers and raceways provides excellent capacity for purely radial forces.
- Axial Displacement Accommodation: The design allows for free axial movement of the shaft relative to the housing, preventing stress from thermal expansion.
- Separable Design: The inner ring can be mounted separately from the outer ring and cage assembly, simplifying installation and maintenance.
- High-Speed Performance: Engineered for low friction and minimal heat generation, making it suitable for high-rotational speed applications.
- Robust Construction: Made from high-grade bearing steel for superior durability and resistance to wear and fatigue.
- Single-Row Roller Design: Provides a balanced combination of high load capacity and compact design.
Common Applications
- Industrial Gearboxes: Used as non-locating bearings on gear shafts to support heavy radial loads and allow for thermal expansion.
