Open Spherical Roller Bearing

Open Spherical Roller Bearing

Open spherical roller bearings are high-load-capacity bearings with self-aligning capability. Featuring a double-row roller design, they can accommodate heavy radial loads as well as bidirectional axial loads.
They are ideal for applications where misalignment or shaft deflection occurs, making them suitable for heavy-duty and harsh working environments.

Product Types

 

1. Asymmetrical Spherical Roller Bearings (Conventional Design)
● Structure: Outer ring + inner ring with guide ring ribs + two-piece solid cage + rollers.
● Features: Conventional design, sometimes used in vibrating machinery.


2.Symmetrical Spherical Roller Bearings (Modern Design)
Includes common designs such as:
● CA Type (Machined Brass Cage)
● ACA Type (Enhanced Brass Cage Design)
● CB Type (Two-Piece Brass Cage)
● C Type (Basic Design with Symmetrical Rollers)
● CC Type (Stamped Steel Cage)
● S Type (Special Design / Customized Structure)

Open Spherical Roller Bearing

 

Structural Features

 

● Double-row spherical rollers.
● Common spherical raceway in the outer ring.
● Inner raceways are inclined at an angle to the bearing axis.
● Raceway curvature center coincides with bearing center.

 

Key Advantages

 

● Self-aligning capability compensates misalignment and shaft deflection.
● High load capacity for heavy-duty applications.
● Handles radial and bidirectional axial loads.
● Excellent resistance to vibration and shock.
● Extended service life due to optimized stress distribution.
