Product Overview: The NU 208 Cylindrical Roller Bearing
The NU 208 bearing is a high-performance component within our extensive range of Cylindrical Roller Bearings, specifically part of the NU 200 Series and broader NU Series. This robust bearing is precisely engineered with a bore diameter of 40mm, an outer diameter of 80mm, and a thickness of 18mm. Its design, featuring two integral flanges on the outer ring and no flanges on the inner ring, allows for axial displacement of the shaft relative to the housing. This makes the NU 208 bearing particularly suited for applications where thermal expansion or slight axial shifts are expected.
As a leading supplier of industrial bearings and mechanical parts, we ensure that our NU 208 bearings are manufactured to rigorous industry standards, providing exceptional reliability and long service life even under demanding operational conditions. These bearings excel in applications requiring high radial load capacity and high-speed capabilities, making them an indispensable component in various heavy-duty industrial machinery. Explore our full selection of cylindrical roller bearings to find the optimal solution for your industrial needs.
