Spherical Roller Bearings

Spherical roller bearings are double row units comprising solid outer rings with a concave raceway, solid inner rings and barrel rollers with cages. We stock both the plain (symmetrical) bore (EAW33) and taper bore (EAKW33).
The symmetrical barrel rollers orientate themselves freely on the concave outer raceway. As a result, shaft flexing and misalignment of the bearing seats are compensated.

Plain Bore

Narrow Series Deep Groove Ball Bearings - C3 Clearance

Slightly narrower than the 6000 series with the same bore and outside diameter. Designed to withstand radial loads, withstand axial loads in both directions and operate at high speeds of rotation.

Taper Roller Bearings

Tapered roller bearings are comprised of solid inner and outer rings with raceways, taper rollers and cages manufactured from pressed steel. The bearings are not self-retaining. As a result, the inner ring with the rollers can be fitted separately from the outer ring. Tapered roller bearings are not sealed and not supplied grease filled.

Deep Groove Ball Bearings - C3 Clearance

C3 bearings have an additional internal radial clearance to cope with high speed environments where excess heat is generated.

Open type:

Without seals to allow for the free circulation of either oil or grease.

Self Aligning Bearings

With double ball rows and a spherical raceway in the outer ring, self-aligning ball bearings can compensate for installation errors or shaft misalignment. Useful for applications requiring high rotating speeds while exercising moderate radial, and moderate or low axial loading. Available in cylindrical bore or taper bore (K suffix). Clearance is standardised (ISO 5753). The values are different for cylindrical bore and tapered bore bearings (suffix K). The latter have a significantly larger clearance to allow the reduction in clearance resulting from the adapter sleeves interference fit.

Self Aligning - Plain Bore

Taper Roller Bearings

Tapered roller bearings are comprised of solid inner and outer rings with raceways, taper rollers and cages manufactured from pressed steel. The bearings are not self-retaining. As a result, the inner ring with the rollers can be fitted separately from the outer ring. Tapered roller bearings are not sealed and not supplied grease filled.

SNR Deep Groove Ball Bearings

With Shields

Thrust Ball Bearings

Thrust Bearings are designed primarily to support axial loads at contact angles between 30° and 90°. Just as with radial bearings, these bearings differ according to the type of rolling element they use. With thrust bearings, it is necessary to supply an axial preload in order to prevent slipping movement between the bearing's rolling element and raceways.
Comprising of caged ball bearing element and pair of shaft housing washers (bearing shaft washer and housing washer, and the normal contact angle is 90°. Axial loads can be supported in only one direction, radial loads cannot be accommodated. Spherical roller and needle roller versions are also available.

Taper Roller Bearings

Tapered roller bearings are comprised of solid inner and outer rings with raceways, taper rollers and cages manufactured from pressed steel. The bearings are not self-retaining. As a result, the inner ring with the rollers can be fitted separately from the outer ring. Tapered roller bearings are not sealed and not supplied grease filled.

Adapter Sleeves

Adaptor sleeves are commonly used for locating tapererd bored bearing and securing them to a shaft. They can be accurately positioned and dismounted. By using in conjuction with SNR feeler gauges accurate radial clearances will be achieved.
