Product Overview: The NU 326 Cylindrical Roller Bearing
The NU 326 bearing is a high-capacity component, part of our extensive NU 300 Series NU Series Cylindrical Roller Bearings. Designed to accommodate heavy radial loads and high speeds, this bearing features a single row of rollers and raceways with line contact, distributing the load over a larger area. The key characteristic of the NU type is that the outer ring has two integral flanges, while the inner ring has no flanges. This design allows for axial displacement of the shaft relative to the housing within the bearing itself, making it ideal for applications where thermal expansion or contraction might occur.
As a leading supplier of industrial bearings and mechanical parts, we ensure that our NU 326 bearings (130x280x58mm) are manufactured to rigorous industry standards, providing reliable performance and exceptional longevity in the most demanding industrial environments. Their separable design simplifies mounting and dismounting, contributing to easier maintenance and reduced downtime. Explore our full range of cylindrical roller bearings to find the perfect fit for your specific industrial needs.
