1. Product core introduction
Our Double Row Self Aligning Ball Bearing Cylindrical Shaft is a top-of-the-line solution for various mechanical applications. This innovative bearing is designed to provide reliable and efficient performance, especially in situations where shaft misalignment is a concern. It combines advanced engineering with high-quality materials to offer a durable and precise rotational support system. Whether it's used in industrial machinery, automotive components, or agricultural equipment, this bearing plays a crucial role in ensuring the smooth operation and longevity of the overall system, reducing maintenance costs and downtime.
2. The main characteristics of the product
• Self-Aligning Capability
The unique design of the double row self-aligning ball bearing allows it to automatically compensate for angular misalignment of the shaft, up to a certain degree. This feature is invaluable in applications where the shaft may be subject to deflection or misalignment due to factors such as thermal expansion, mounting inaccuracies, or dynamic loads. It helps to evenly distribute the load across the bearing, minimizing stress concentrations and reducing the risk of premature bearing failure.
• High Load Capacity
With two rows of precision balls, this bearing is capable of handling significant radial and axial loads. The optimized ball and raceway geometry ensure that the load is effectively distributed, providing excellent load-carrying capacity and rigidity. This makes it suitable for use in heavy-duty applications where reliable performance under high loads is essential.
• Low Friction and High Efficiency
The balls and raceways are manufactured to extremely tight tolerances and finished to a high surface smoothness, resulting in low friction during operation. This not only reduces power consumption but also minimizes heat generation, enhancing the overall efficiency and reliability of the bearing and the associated equipment. The low friction characteristics also contribute to a longer service life by reducing wear on the bearing components.
• Precision Engineering
Our bearings are crafted with precision to meet the strictest quality standards. The dimensional accuracy and geometric tolerances are carefully controlled to ensure proper fit and alignment with the shaft and housing. This precision engineering results in smooth rotation, minimal vibration, and excellent repeatability, making it ideal for applications where accuracy and stability are critical, such as in precision machinery and automated equipment.
• Durable Construction
Made from high-quality alloy steel, the bearing components are heat-treated to enhance their strength and hardness. The seals and cages are also designed to withstand the rigors of operation, protecting the balls and raceways from contaminants and ensuring proper lubrication retention. This combination of materials and design features ensures the durability and long-term reliability of the bearing, even in harsh operating environments.

• Industrial Machinery
In pumps and compressors, the Double Row Self Aligning Ball Bearing Cylindrical Shaft helps to support the rotating shafts and compensate for any misalignment that may occur during operation. This ensures efficient fluid transfer and compression, reducing energy consumption and maintenance requirements.
For conveyor systems, the bearing allows for smooth and reliable movement of the conveyor rollers, even when the shafts are subjected to uneven loads or slight misalignments. This helps to prevent belt slippage and wear, improving the overall performance and productivity of the conveyor.
In industrial fans and blowers, the self-aligning feature of the bearing is crucial for maintaining proper balance and alignment of the rotating blades. This results in reduced vibration and noise, as well as improved aerodynamic efficiency, enhancing the performance and lifespan of the fan.
• Automotive Applications
In automotive transmissions and axles, the bearing provides reliable support for the rotating shafts, compensating for any misalignment caused by the movement and vibration of the vehicle. This helps to ensure smooth gear shifting and efficient power transfer, enhancing the overall performance and drivability of the vehicle.
For automotive wheel hubs, the self-aligning ball bearing helps to accommodate the slight misalignments that can occur during normal driving conditions, such as when going over bumps or turning. This reduces stress on the wheel bearings and other components, improving the safety and reliability of the vehicle.
• Agricultural Equipment
In tractors and other agricultural machinery, the Double Row Self Aligning Ball Bearing Cylindrical Shaft is used in various rotating components, such as the engine crankshaft, power take-off shafts, and implement spindles. The self-aligning feature is essential for withstanding the rough operating conditions and vibrations encountered in agricultural applications, ensuring reliable performance and reducing downtime during the busy farming season.
4. Product use instructions
1、Installation
Before installation, carefully clean the bearing, shaft, and housing to remove any dirt, debris, or rust. Inspect the bearing for any signs of damage or defects, and ensure that it is the correct size and type for the application.
Apply a suitable lubricant to the bearing surfaces, following the manufacturer's recommendations for lubricant type and quantity. The lubricant should be evenly distributed to ensure proper operation and reduce friction.
When installing the bearing onto the shaft, use appropriate tools and techniques to avoid applying excessive force or damaging the bearing. Ensure that the bearing is properly seated and aligned with the shaft and housing.
Check the shaft alignment and bearing clearance after installation to ensure that they are within the specified tolerances. This can be done using alignment tools and feeler gauges.
2、Operation
Start the equipment gradually and allow the bearing to warm up to its operating temperature. Avoid sudden starts and stops, as this can cause excessive stress on the bearing and lead to premature failure.
Monitor the operating temperature, vibration, and noise levels of the bearing during operation. Any significant changes in these parameters could indicate a problem, such as insufficient lubrication, misalignment, or overloading. If detected, take immediate action to address the issue and prevent further damage.
Ensure that the equipment is operating within the specified load and speed limits of the bearing. Exceeding these limits can significantly reduce the bearing's lifespan and may result in catastrophic failure.
3、Maintenance
Regularly inspect the bearing for signs of wear, damage, or contamination. This can be done during routine equipment maintenance or by using condition monitoring techniques such as vibration analysis and oil analysis.
If the bearing shows signs of wear, such as pitting, spalling, or increased clearance, it should be replaced promptly. Delaying replacement can lead to further damage to the equipment and increased downtime.
Clean the bearing and its housing periodically to remove dirt, dust, and other contaminants. Use a suitable cleaning solvent and a soft brush or cloth to avoid scratching the bearing surfaces.
Check and replenish the lubricant at regular intervals, following the manufacturer's recommended lubrication schedule. Ensure that the lubricant is of the correct type and quality and is applied in the appropriate amount.
