Axial spherical roller bearings are designed for high axial loads in one direction and can simultaneously absorb low radial forces. Thanks to their spherical raceway in the outer ring and barrel-shaped rolling elements, they reliably compensate for misalignment or skewing – even under heavy loads and changing operating conditions.
This bearing design offers high rigidity, excellent load carrying capacity and smooth running even with inaccurate alignment. It is particularly suitable for applications where axial forces are high and installation conditions are demanding. Axial spherical roller bearings are available in various cage designs and can be filled with temperature- or load-appropriate lubricants depending on requirements.
