Spherical Roller Bearings
Spherical roller bearings are double-row bearings with barrel-shaped rollers running against a common spherical outer raceway. They carry heavy radial load and useful axial load while accommodating shaft deflection or housing misalignment, making them suited to large, shock-loaded and vibrating machinery.
