Sealed bearings simplify installation

The sealed spherical roller bearings are protected against both particle and moisture contamination, enabling them to offer effective performance over long, virtually maintenance-free service lives.

SKF has extended its range of sealed spherical roller bearings, increasing the number of applications for which they can be used.

Due to their sealed construction, the bearings can reduce the cost of installation and maintenance considerably, while offering consistently high performance under demanding conditions.

The sealed spherical roller bearings are protected against both particle and moisture contamination, enabling them to offer effective performance over long, virtually maintenance-free service lives.

As the bearings do not require external seals in all but the most aggressive environments, installation is simplified considerably, reducing downtime and costs.

The bearings are pre-lubricated prior to sealing.

Standard versions feature a nitrile double-lip seal and standard grease.

High-temperature models have a fluoro rubber seal and high-temperature grease, for extreme conditions where lower speeds are required.

The internal architecture of the bearings provides maximum axial and radial load carrying capacity, enabling designers to reduce the size of the bearings required to carry a given load.

Their self-aligning properties allow the bearings to accommodate misalignment between shaft and housing without increased friction or reduction of bearing life.

The sealed bearings can be used as direct replacements for existing open bearing equivalents, enabling applications to be upgraded simply and cost-effectively.

The latest extension to the sealed spherical roller bearing range includes 11 new variants, with both cylindrical and tapered bore versions available, depending on specific application requirements.
