What Are TIMKEN Self-Aligning Roller Bearings?
TIMKEN self-aligning roller bearings, also known as spherical roller bearings, are designed to handle radial loads and moderate axial loads in both directions. Their unique self-aligning capability allows them to compensate for shaft misalignment and deflection—common issues in heavy machinery—without sacrificing performance or lifespan.
One of the most popular models is the TIMKEN 22222EMW33. This bearing offers:
-
High radial load capacity
-
Self-aligning capability up to 1.5°
-
W33 lubrication groove and holes for improved grease flow
-
EM cage design for enhanced stability under shock loads
Other available models include:
-
TIMKEN 22326EMBW33
-
TIMKEN 24030CJW33
-
TIMKEN 22215KEJW33
-
TIMKEN 23120EMBW33C3
Each is designed to meet specific load, speed, and environmental requirements—perfect for customization based on industry needs.
