Product Overview: The NU 2320 Cylindrical Roller Bearing
The NU 2320 bearing is a high-capacity component from our specialized NU 2300 Series of Cylindrical Roller Bearings. With a bore diameter of 100 mm, an outer diameter of 180 mm, and a thickness of 60 mm, this bearing is engineered to withstand significant radial loads while accommodating axial displacement in one direction. Its design, featuring two integral flanges on the outer ring and no flanges on the inner ring, allows for this crucial axial movement, making it ideal for applications where thermal expansion or contraction might occur. As a vital part of our NU Series, the NU 2320 exemplifies robust construction and reliable performance, crucial for demanding industrial environments.
Key Features of the NU 2320 Bearing
- High Radial Load Capacity: Designed with a large number of rollers to distribute loads effectively, supporting heavy radial forces.
- Axial Displacement Accommodation: The specific 'NU' configuration allows the inner ring to move axially relative to the outer ring, compensating for shaft expansion/contraction.
- Low Friction Operation: Optimized roller and raceway geometry ensures smooth rotation, reducing heat generation and energy consumption.
- Separable Components: Inner and outer rings can be mounted independently, simplifying installation and maintenance procedures.
- Durable Steel Construction: Manufactured from high-quality bearing steel for excellent wear resistance and extended service life in harsh conditions.
- Precision Engineering: Produced to strict industry standards, ensuring dimensional accuracy and consistent, reliable performance.
