Double Row Self-Aligning Ball Bearings

Double row self-aligning ball bearings

Double row self-aligning ball bearings have spheral raceway on the outer ring. They can misalign and also the misalignment of seating is acceptable for them. Double row self-aligning ball bearings are produced with cylindrical or tapered bore and they are non-separable.

Misaligning ability without impairing the bearing‘s proper functions allows the application of the bearings where a higher bore misalignment in bearing housings or deflection and oscillation of shaft can be expected. Because of the small contact angle and imperfect adhesion of the balls to the raceways they are not suitable for higher axial loads.
