Cylindrical Roller Bearings
Cylindrical Roller Bearings are a type of rolling-element bearing designed to handle high radial loads with minimal friction. They consist of an inner and outer ring, separated by cylindrical-shaped rollers, which are guided by ribs on either the inner or outer ring. These bearings offer excellent load-carrying capacity and are ideal for applications that require high-speed operation and low friction.
Key Features:
High Radial Load Capacity: Suitable for applications with heavy radial loads, offering greater load-bearing than ball bearings.
Axial Load Limitation: Primarily designed for radial loads; axial load capacity depends on the bearing design.
Low Friction: Optimized for high-speed operations with minimal energy loss.
Various Designs: Available in single-row, double-row, and multi-row configurations, depending on load and speed requirements.
Common Applications: Gearboxes, electric motors, pumps, wind turbines, and heavy machinery.
The simple and robust design makes cylindrical roller bearings a popular choice for applications that demand reliability and efficiency.
