Product Overview: The N 228 Cylindrical Roller Bearing
The N 228 is a high-capacity single-row cylindrical roller bearing designed to handle heavy radial loads at high speeds. With dimensions of 140x250x42mm, this bearing is a key component in demanding industrial machinery. As part of our N Series and N 200 Series, the N 228 features a unique design where the inner ring has two integral flanges and 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. Its robust construction ensures reliable performance in the most challenging environments.
As a leading supplier of industrial components, we provide a comprehensive range of Cylindrical Roller Bearings manufactured to the highest industry standards. The separable design of the N 228, where the inner ring can be mounted independently of the outer ring and roller assembly, simplifies both installation and maintenance procedures, reducing downtime and improving efficiency.
Key Features of the N 228 Bearing
- High Radial Load Capacity: Engineered with line contact between the rollers and raceways to support substantial radial forces.
- Axial Displacement Accommodation: The N-type design allows for axial thermal expansion or contraction of the shaft in both directions without inducing stress.
- Separable Components: The inner ring, outer ring, and roller cage assembly can be mounted separately, facilitating easier installation, inspection, and maintenance.
- High-Speed Performance: Optimized internal geometry minimizes friction and heat generation, making it suitable for high-speed applications.
- Robust and Durable: Constructed from high-purity, hardened bearing steel for exceptional wear resistance and a long operational lifespan.
- Dimensional Stability: Precision manufacturing ensures tight tolerances for consistent and reliable performance.
Common Applications of N 228 Bearings
- Industrial Gearboxes: Provides robust support for gears and shafts, handling the high radial loads typical in power transmission systems.
- Large Electric Motors: Used as non-locating bearings to support motor shafts while allowing for thermal expansion.
- Pumps and Compressors: Ensures smooth and reliable operation in heavy-duty industrial pumps and compressors.
- Rolling Mills: Withstands the extreme radial forces and high speeds found in steel and metal processing machinery.
- Construction and Mining Equipment: Ideal for use in heavy machinery like excavators, loaders, and crushers where durability is critical.
- Wind Turbines: Supports the main shaft and gearbox components in wind energy generation systems.
- Machine Tool Spindles: Provides the rigidity and precision required for high-accuracy machining operations.
Benefits of Using the N 228 Bearing
- Enhanced Machine Reliability: Its ability to handle heavy loads and accommodate axial movement reduces stress on the entire assembly, preventing premature failure.
- Simplified Mounting and Maintenance: The separable design significantly reduces the time and effort required for installation and servicing.
- Extended Service Life: High-quality materials and low-friction design lead to less wear and tear, extending the operational life of both the bearing and the equipment.
- Improved Operational Efficiency: Low friction characteristics contribute to reduced energy consumption and smoother performance.
- Versatility in Application: Suitable for a wide range of heavy industrial applications requiring a non-locating bearing solution.
- Cost-Effective Solution: The combination of long life, reliability, and low maintenance needs results in a lower total cost of ownership.
