Product Overview: The N 328 Cylindrical Roller Bearing
The N 328 bearing is a high-capacity, single-row cylindrical roller bearing designed for heavy-duty industrial applications. With principal dimensions of 140mm Bore Diameter, 300mm Outer Diameter, and 62mm Thickness, this bearing is part of our robust N 300 Series within the broader Cylindrical Roller Bearings category. The 'N' designation signifies a specific 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 an excellent choice for non-locating bearing positions in heavy machinery.
Manufactured to precise industry standards, the N 328 is engineered to handle high radial loads at high speeds. Its separable design, where the inner ring with the roller and cage assembly can be mounted independently of the outer ring, simplifies installation, inspection, and maintenance procedures. This makes it a practical and reliable component for demanding operational environments.
Key Features of the N 328 Bearing
- High Radial Load Capacity: The line contact between the rollers and raceways provides excellent capacity for heavy radial loads.
- Axial Displacement Capability: The N-type design allows for thermal expansion and contraction of the shaft by permitting axial movement in both directions.
- Separable Components: The inner and outer rings can be mounted separately, which simplifies the assembly and dismounting process.
- High-Speed Performance: Engineered with an optimized internal geometry to support high rotational speeds with minimal friction.
- Robust Construction: Made from high-purity, hardened bearing steel for exceptional durability, wear resistance, and a long service life.
- Dimensional Stability: Precision manufacturing ensures consistent and reliable performance under challenging operating conditions.
Common Applications of N 328 Bearings
- Industrial Gearboxes: Provides robust support for gears and shafts in heavy-duty transmission systems.
- Electric Motors and Generators: Used as non-locating bearings in large industrial motors to manage thermal expansion of the shaft.
- Rolling Mills: Withstands the extreme radial loads and high temperatures found in steel and metal processing equipment.
- Pumps and Compressors: Ensures reliable operation of rotating components in industrial fluid machinery.
- Construction and Mining Equipment: Ideal for use in heavy machinery like excavators, crushers, and conveyors.
- Vibrating Screens and Shakers: The high load capacity makes it suitable for machinery subjected to intense vibrations and shock loads.
- Paper and Pulp Machinery: Supports rollers and shafts in processing equipment that operates continuously at high speeds.
