Everything You Need to Know About Self-Aligning Ball Bearings in the Hardware Industry

Release time:

2024-05-26

Self-aligning ball bearings are a type of rolling-element bearing that is designed to withstand both radial and axial loads. They are commonly used in machinery, especially in the hardware industry, where precise alignment of shafts and housings is crucial for smooth operation.
These bearings are unique because they have two rows of balls and a common spherical raceway in the outer ring. This design allows the bearing to accommodate misalignment between the shaft and housing, making them self-aligning. As a result, they can compensate for shaft deflections and mounting errors, reducing the risk of premature wear and failure.
Self-aligning ball bearings are versatile and can be used in a wide range of applications, including power tools, automotive components, and industrial machinery. They are known for their high load-carrying capacity and low friction, making them ideal for high-speed operations.
In summary, self-aligning ball bearings play a crucial role in the hardware industry by ensuring smooth and efficient operation of machinery. Their ability to self-align and accommodate misalignment makes them a valuable component in various applications, contributing to the overall performance and reliability of hardware tools and equipment.

Post code for self-aligning roller bearings

Install the tapered hole self-aligning roller bearings with the rear codes K and K30 on the matching locking sleeve to become the K+H and K30+H type bearings with the rear codes. This type of bearing can be installed on an optical shaft without a shoulder, and is suitable for occasions where frequent installation and disassembly of bearings are required. In order to improve the lubrication performance of the bearing, there is an annular oil groove on the outer ring of the bearing and three evenly distributed oil holes are drilled, with the post code W33.

What are the types of Deep Groove Ball Bearing?

Deep Groove Ball Bearing is mainly used to bear radial load, but it is also commonly used to bear radial and axial combined load. Especially when the speed of mechanical equipment is high and thrust bearings are not suitable, this bearing can be used to withstand bidirectional pure axial loads without maintenance during operation, making it a low-cost and widely used bearing. Deep Groove Ball Bearing models include: Deep Groove Ball Bearing (60000);

What are the characteristics of Deep Groove Ball Bearing?

After the Deep Groove Ball Bearing is installed on the shaft, the axial displacement in both directions of the shaft or housing can be limited within the axial clearance range of the bearing, so the axial positioning can be made in both directions. In addition, this type of bearing also has a certain degree of centering ability. When tilted 2 'to 10' relative to the casing hole, it can still work normally, but it has a certain impact on the bearing life.
