Product Overview: The NU 240 Cylindrical Roller Bearing
The NU 240 is a high-capacity, single-row cylindrical roller bearing designed for heavy-duty industrial applications. With dimensions of 200x360x58mm, this bearing is a key component in our NU Series of Cylindrical Roller Bearings. Its distinctive NU design features two integral flanges on the outer ring and no flanges on the inner ring. 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 or potential shaft movement.
Engineered to handle extremely high radial loads at moderate to high speeds, the NU 240 is manufactured from premium-grade bearing steel to ensure durability and a long service life. Its separable design, where the inner ring can be mounted independently of the outer ring and roller assembly, significantly simplifies installation, inspection, and maintenance procedures. Trust our expertise as a premier supplier to provide robust and reliable components for your most demanding machinery.
Key Features of the NU 240 Bearing
- High Radial Load Capacity: Line contact between the rollers and raceways provides excellent capacity for heavy radial loads.
- Accommodates Axial Displacement: The NU design allows for axial movement between the shaft and housing, compensating for thermal expansion.
- Separable Design: The inner ring is separable, facilitating easier and more efficient mounting and dismounting.
- Robust and Durable: Constructed from high-quality, clean bearing steel for extended operational life under severe conditions.
- High-Speed Performance: Engineered for high rotational speeds, suitable for a wide range of industrial machinery.
- Low-Friction Operation: The optimized internal geometry minimizes friction and heat generation, enhancing operational efficiency.
