Spherical roller bearings are designed with two rows of rollers, an external spherical raceway ring and two internal raceways angled to accommodate to the rotating shaft. The barrel-shaped rollers are thus located between the two internal raceways, and a sealed or unsealed cage can be applied.Spherical Roller Bearings can withstand even the most demanding conditions. These bearings resist seizure as well as wear in spite of constant vibration, misalignment and shock loads.They maintain dimensional stability, can support high radial loads and moderate axial loads.. Their performance enhancements include extremely tight radial clearance tolerance.

Spherical Roller Bearing Applications Provided below are a few common applications for spherical roller bearings. The spherical roller bearing is designed to handle very heavy loads, even under misalignment or shaft deflection conditions.
