Product Overview: The N 304 Cylindrical Roller Bearing
The N 304 bearing is a high-capacity, single-row cylindrical roller bearing designed for heavy radial loads and high-speed operation. As a key component in our N 300 Series, this bearing features a separable design, with the inner ring having two integral flanges and a flangeless outer ring. This configuration allows the N 304 to accommodate axial displacement of the shaft relative to the housing in both directions, making it ideal for applications with thermal expansion. Manufactured to standard dimensions of 20x52x15mm, it ensures interchangeability and reliability. Explore our full range of Cylindrical Roller Bearings for your industrial machinery needs.
Key Features of the N 304 Bearing
- High Radial Load Capacity: The line contact between rollers and raceways provides excellent capacity for heavy radial loads.
- Separable Design: The outer ring can be mounted independently of the inner ring and roller assembly, simplifying installation, inspection, and maintenance.
- Axial Displacement Accommodation: The N-type design allows for axial movement of the shaft in both directions, compensating for thermal expansion or mounting errors.
- High-Speed Performance: Engineered for low friction and minimal heat generation, making it suitable for high-speed applications.
- Robust Construction: Made from premium-grade bearing steel for exceptional durability, wear resistance, and a long service life.
- Dimensional Stability: Precision manufacturing ensures consistent dimensions for easy integration and replacement.
