Spherical roller thrust bearings are self-aligning, making them unaffected by mounting errors and shaft deflection. The E-type uses an even higher load capacity design featuring a pressed steel cage. We recommend machined brass cages for horizontal shafts and high-speed applications.
As these bearings have many parts that are hard to reach with grease, oil lubrication is used even at low speeds. Cages are typically made from machined brass.
Features
Correct for misalignment
The spherical raceway surface of the housing washer makes spherical roller bearings self-aligning.
High load capacity
Spherical roller bearings offer high axial load capacity, with some capacity for radial load when axial load is applied.
Applications
Air preheaters, extruders, injection molders, excavators, cranes
