Product Overview: The NU 236 Cylindrical Roller Bearing
The NU 236 Cylindrical Roller Bearing is a high-capacity, single-row bearing engineered for demanding industrial applications. With core dimensions of 180x320x110mm, this component is part of our robust NU 2300 Series within the broader Cylindrical Roller Bearings category. Its distinctive NU design features two integral flanges on the outer ring and a smooth, flangeless inner ring. 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. Manufactured for high radial load capacity and operational rigidity, the NU 236 is a staple in heavy machinery.
Features of the NU 236 Bearing
- High Radial Load Capacity: The line contact between rollers and raceways provides excellent capacity for heavy radial loads.
- Axial Displacement: The NU design allows for axial movement of the shaft within the bearing, compensating for thermal expansion or mounting inaccuracies.
- Separable Design: The inner ring can be mounted separately from the outer ring and roller assembly, simplifying installation and maintenance procedures.
- High Rigidity: Engineered to provide a high degree of stiffness, essential for applications requiring precision and stability under load.
- Durable Construction: Made from high-purity, hardened bearing steel for exceptional durability and resistance to wear and fatigue.
- Optimized for High Speeds: The internal geometry is designed to facilitate high rotational speeds with minimal friction and heat generation.
Applications of NU 236 Bearings
- Industrial Gearboxes: Provides robust support for gears and shafts in large-scale transmission systems.
- Rolling Mills: Used extensively in the steel and metal forming industries where immense radial forces are present.
- Large Electric Motors: Supports motor shafts in heavy-duty industrial motors and generators.
- Construction Machinery: Found in equipment like cranes, excavators, and earthmovers where reliability is critical.
- Vibrating Screens and Crushers: Withstands the intense shock and vibration common in mining and aggregate processing.
- Pulp and Paper Machinery: Ideal for calendar rolls and other high-load rotating components in paper mills.
- Wind Turbines: Used in gearbox and main shaft applications to handle significant operational loads.
Benefits of Using the NU 236 Bearing
- Enhanced Machine Reliability: Its ability to handle heavy loads and accommodate axial movement reduces stress on other components, preventing premature failure.
- Simplified Assembly: The separable nature of the bearing allows for easier and more efficient mounting and dismounting, reducing downtime.
- Extended Service Life: High-quality materials and precision manufacturing ensure a long operational life even in harsh environments.
- Improved Operational Efficiency: The low-friction design helps to reduce energy consumption and operating temperatures.
- Versatility in Heavy Industry: Suitable for a wide array of heavy-duty applications, making it a versatile and valuable component.
- Reduced Maintenance Costs: The bearing's durability and robust design lead to fewer replacements and lower long-term maintenance expenses.
