Product details
Self-aligning ball bearings have two rows of balls running on a common sphered raceway in the outer ring, so they adjust themselves when the shaft is misaligned or deflects relative to the housing.
They have the lowest friction of all rolling bearings and run cool even at high speeds. Bearings with a tapered bore (suffix K) are mounted on adapter sleeves, which is convenient for long plain shafts in conveyors and fans.
SKF Self-Aligning Ball Bearings is manufactured by SKF (Sweden). Dong Tam supplies genuine SKF bearings and technical support in Vietnam.
