SKF thrust spherical roller bearings Features and Installato

Writer: Eric Bearing Limited

High carrying capacity

A large number of rollers have the best consistency with the raceway of the shaft ring, helping the bearing to withstand heavy axial and radial loads.

Allow misalignment

SKF spherical roller thrust bearings are self-aligning and can withstand misalignment .

Separate design

SKF thrust spherical roller bearings are separable, so that the seat ring can be installed and disassembled independently of the shaft washer and roller and cage components. In addition, this facilitates maintenance inspections.

High speed capability

The cage design and the optimal consistency of the roller and washer raceways make the bearing suitable for relatively high speeds.

Long lasting 

The special roller shape reduces the edge stress at the roller/raceway contact.

Low friction

The optimized roller end/rib contact keeps the heat generated by friction at a low level even at high speeds.

The fit of the thrust bearing and the shaft is generally a transitional fit, and the fit of the seat ring and the bearing seat hole is generally a clearance fit. Therefore, this kind of bearing is easier to install. The middle shaft spring of the two-way thrust bearing should be fixed on the shaft to prevent relative The shaft rotates.  SKF 6215C4/VL0241 is insulated bearing , ERIC BEARING LTD can supply , if you are looking for it , pls do free to contact us .

The installation method of the bearing is generally the case of shaft rotation, so the fit between the inner ring and the shaft is an over-win fit, and the fit between the outer ring of the bearing and the bearing chamber is a clearance fit.

Bearing operation inspection

After the bearing is installed, check it to ensure that the bearing is installed in place, rotates flexibly, and has no seizure. If the bearing is installed improperly, the temperature of the bearing will rise rapidly and be damaged, and even major accidents such as bearing seizure and fracture will occur.

Use and storage of bearings

(1) When using the bearing, keep the surrounding environment clean and don't stick to hand sweat and dirt. It is stipulated to be used by personnel familiar with bearings, and special care must be taken for injuries, indentations, and defects. In order to ensure the performance of the bearing, the bearing should be maintained, maintained and overhauled regularly according to the operating standards of the equipment, including monitoring the operating status, replenishing lubricant, and regular disassembly inspection.

(2) Bearings must not be stored directly on the ground (above 30cm above the ground), avoid direct light and cold walls. In order to prevent rust, keep it in an environment with a temperature of about 20°C and a humidity of 65% or less. The bearing is placed in acid air, which is easy to rust and change color. Use gloves and kapok silk to wipe the bearing, shaft, and casing. Garbage enters the bearing. The internal and cooperating parts are the cause of the abnormality, so be careful.
