Product Overview: The N 240 Cylindrical Roller Bearing
The N 240 Cylindrical Roller Bearing is a high-capacity, single-row bearing engineered for demanding industrial applications requiring robust radial support. With dimensions of 200x360x58mm, this bearing is a key component in our N 200 Series and 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 applications with thermal expansion or potential shaft elongation.
Manufactured to precision standards, the N 240 is designed to handle extremely high radial loads at moderate to high speeds. Its separable design simplifies the mounting and dismounting process, as the inner and outer rings can be installed independently. This feature is particularly beneficial for maintenance and assembly in heavy machinery. Trust in our expertise as a leading supplier of industrial components to provide reliable and durable solutions for your most critical operations.
Key Features of the N 240 Bearing
- High Radial Load Capacity: The line contact between rollers and raceways provides excellent capacity for heavy radial forces.
- Separable Design: The inner ring with its roller and cage assembly can be mounted separately from the outer ring, simplifying installation and maintenance.
- Axial Displacement Accommodation: The flangeless outer ring allows the shaft to move axially in either direction relative to the housing, compensating for thermal expansion.
- Robust Construction: Made from high-quality, through-hardened bearing steel for superior durability and a long service life under heavy loads.
- Low-Friction Operation: Optimized internal geometry and roller profiles reduce friction, minimizing heat generation and improving operational efficiency.
- High-Speed Capability: Suitable for applications requiring high rotational speeds without sacrificing load-carrying ability.
