Product Overview: The N 408 Cylindrical Roller Bearing
The N 408 bearing is a high-capacity, single-row cylindrical roller bearing designed for heavy radial loads and high-speed applications. With precise dimensions of 40x110x27mm (Bore x Outer Diameter x Thickness), this bearing is a key component in a wide array of industrial machinery. As part of our N 400 Series, the N 408 features 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 ideal for applications with thermal expansion.

Features of the N 408 Bearing
- High Radial Load Capacity: The line contact between rollers and raceways provides excellent capacity for heavy radial loads.
- Axial Displacement Accommodation: The flangeless outer ring allows for axial movement, compensating for thermal expansion of the shaft.
- Separable Design: The outer ring can be mounted separately from the inner ring and roller assembly, simplifying installation and maintenance.
- High-Speed Performance: Engineered for low friction and minimal heat generation, making it suitable for high-speed rotational applications.
- Robust Construction: Manufactured from high-quality bearing steel for superior durability, wear resistance, and long service life.
- Precision Engineering: Adheres to strict industry standards for dimensional and running accuracy, ensuring consistent and reliable performance.
