When you need to accommodate heavy radial and axial loads simultaneously, as well as occasional shaft misalignment, this spherical roller bearing from SKF can meet the challenge. It's self-aligning, so it can tolerate initial misalignment, making it quicker and easier to install. The bearing can also cope with shaft deflection from shock loads. The optimised design features tapered rollers that direct radial force toward the axis, increasing axial load capacity. Made from extremely wear-resistant materials and designed to produce minimal friction, this unit offers a long service life and requires little work to maintain.

• Tapered bore type for radial and axial loads
• Compact structure
• High precision and accommodation of angular misalignment
• Inside diameter of 80 mm
• Outside diameter of 175 mm
• Race width of 35 mm

• Industrial manufacturing
• Wind turbines
• Mineral processing
• Transport applications

The rollers in self-aligning bearings run between inner and outer rings (or races). If shaft misalignment occurs, the bearings accommodate it by letting rollers pivot in the raceways.
