Schaeffler rolling bearings and plain bearings: Spherical roller bearings

Delivering an outstanding performance: Spherical roller bearings are designed for systems in which high loads must be supported and shaft flexing and misalignments compensated. They deliver extremely high performance and are designed to carry extreme loads

The decades of experience our engineers have gathered combined with innovative ideas improve our spherical roller bearings even further. As a matter of fact, our quest for perfection in development and production ensures optimum kinematics and low wear, which increases the service life even more. And that comes at a low maintenance outlay and minimum maintenance costs.

Schaeffler rolling bearings and plain bearings: Spherical roller bearings

Spherical roller bearings

Spherical roller bearings are a special rolling bearing design whose inner ring runs inside the outer ring on two rows of rollers. The bearings have an angular adjustment of up to 2° and are not only designed for high load carrying capacity but can also compensate misalignments.

X-life

Various sizes are supplied in the X-life grade. These bearings are indicated in the dimension tables.

Schaeffler rolling bearings and plain bearings: Swivel-joint roller bearing for vibration machines

Swivel-joint roller bearing for vibration machines

Vibratory screens used for grading materials and other vibratory machinery such as road rollers and saw frames are among the machines subjected to the most severe stresses. The rolling bearings fitted in the exciter units of these machines must support not only high loads and high speeds, but also acceleration and centrifugal forces. In many cases, these applications involve adverse environmental conditions such as contamination and moisture. FAG special spherical roller bearings are matched to the operating conditions in vibratory machinery and have proven highly successful in practical use. The special spherical roller bearings can support dynamic angular misalignments of up to 0.15°.

X-life

Various sizes are supplied in the X-life grade. These bearings are indicated in the dimension tables.

Schaeffler rolling bearings and plain bearings: Split spherical roller bearings

Split spherical roller bearings

Carrying out replacement work quickly and easily: Split spherical roller bearings are the ideal solution for use in difficult-to-reach locations. Complex additional tasks and extensions can therefore be reduced to a minimum, significantly shortening machine and system downtimes.

Schaeffler rolling bearings and plain bearings: Axial spherical roller bearings

Axial spherical roller bearings

Axial spherical roller bearings are single-row roller bearings with an angular adjustment facility. They comprise solid shaft and housing locating washers and asymmetrical barrel rollers with cages. The cage holds the roller and cage assembly and the shaft locating washer together. The bearings can be dismantled. As a result, the bearing components can be fitted separately.

X-life

Various sizes are supplied in the X-life grade. These bearings are indicated in the dimension tables.

E1 spherical roller bearing in X-life quality: Up to 15% increase in dynamic load ratings compared to conventional spherical roller bearings

Setting new standards

No matter where FAG spherical roller bearings are used, they are above all characterized by their extremely high performance capacity.

Higher dynamic load ratings ensure increased operational reliability and raise the average service life by up to 60%. What is more: They are a space saver, since significantly smaller bearings can easily live up to the performance of larger models.

X-life – Schaeffler’s exclusive quality standard – is the reason for this significant increase in performance capacity, cost-effectiveness, and operational reliability.

Custom solutions - In use around the world

Every turbine has different requirements for the installed spherical roller bearing. They range from bearings with a cylindrical bore, a tapered bore, and adapter and extraction sleeves to sealing or split spherical roller bearings that allow for quick and simple mounting and dismounting. We have the ideal solution for your task.

Projects around the world in which our products are used prove that Schaeffler solutions in the field of spherical roller bearings can be counted on. Whether it is in the energy sector or in heavy industries, in modern architecture or in the world of mobility: We make sure that the world moves.

We offer innovative bearing solutions that are tailored perfectly to the requirements of each project.

X-life – proven to be better

In these bearings, the raceways have optimized roughness and geometrical accuracy. This gives a higher load-carrying capacity and longer service life. X-life is the premium brand that identifies particularly high-performance products under the INA and FAG brands.

They are characterized by a longer rating and operating life – the result of higher dynamic load ratings than those of current standard products. If the load and design envelope are unchanged, X-life bearings have a longer rating life. Longer maintenance intervals are possible.
