Why use cylindrical roller bearings?

This is because plain cylindrical bearings have more contact surface area than rolling element bearings, so loads are more evenly distributed across the surface. Cylindrical bearing applications may include applications with either radial or axial loads.

CYLINDRICAL BEARINGS DESIGN, MATERIALS & BENEFITS

Switching from rolling element bearings to cylindrical bearings results in savings from lower parts costs, low-risk assembly and installation, relaxed shaft tolerances and surface finish plus hardness requirements. Cylindrical bearings resist damage from fatigue, shock and edge loads, and they tolerate misalignment better than rolling element bearings. Ultimately, customers will experience savings from lower maintenance costs and extended equipment life.

NICER bearings have straight outside and inside diameters and are flush inside the housing. Due to their simple construction, cylindrical bearings are easy to install with a simple press fitting, reducing potential installation damage. They are slim, which saves space and weight, and cylindrical bearing sizes vary according to their use and client needs.

NICER offers many shapes, sizes and materials of cylindrical bearings, including:

  • Metals and Bimetals,

  • Metal-Polymers,

  • Engineered Plastics,

  • Fiber Reinforced Composites and more.

WHAT ARE CYLINDRICAL BEARINGS USED FOR?

Cylindrical bearings are extremely versatile and may be used for many applications. Common bearing uses include:

  • Agricultural Equipment

  • Air Conditioning Compressors

  • Pumps

  • Engine Rocker Arms

  • Gearboxes and Transmission Systems

  • Kingpins

  • Road Sweepers

  • Steering Systems

  • Throttle Butterfly Valves

  • Wind Turbines

Everything you should know about roller bearings

Roller bearings are crucial components in various machinery and equipment, serving the purpose of reducing friction and facilitating smooth rotational motion. This article addresses 10 common questions related to roller bearings, offering insightful answers to help you better understand their functionality and applications. 1. What Are Roller Bearings? Roller bearings are mechanical components designed to support radial and axial loads while allowing for smooth, low-friction rotation. They consist of cylindrical or  tapered roller bearings  arranged in a cage, which helps distribute the load evenly and reduce friction. Roller bearings are widely used in industries such as automotive, manufacturing, and aerospace due to their efficiency and durability. 2. How Do Roller Bearings Work? Roller bearings work by distributing the load over the rolling elements (rollers) rather than the entire surface, which reduces friction. When a load is applied, the rollers roll smoothly, minimizi...

Ball Bearings vs. Roller Bearings: Unraveling the Key Differences

  When it comes to understanding the mechanical components that keep our world in motion, bearings play a vital role. Whether you're a seasoned engineer or simply a curious individual looking to gain insights into the world of machinery, you may have wondered about the differences between two crucial types of bearings: ball bearings and roller bearings. In this comprehensive article, we delve into the intricacies of these mechanical marvels, shedding light on their unique features, applications, and advantages. Ball Bearings: The Precision Spheres Ball bearings, as the name suggests, consist of spherical balls that facilitate smooth rolling motion within a mechanical system. These bearings are renowned for their precision and ability to reduce friction, making them an integral part of countless machines and devices. The Anatomy of a Ball Bearing A ball bearing comprises several key components: Outer Ring: The outer ring, also known as the outer race, serves as the outermost part of...

Cylindrical Roller Bearing

  Cylindrical Roller Bearing Cylindrical Roller Bearing  with no ribs on the inner ring or outer ring, the inner ring and outer ring can move relative to the axial direction, so it can be used as a free end bearing. Cylindrical roller bearings with double ribs on one side of the inner ring and outer ring and a single rib on the other side of the ring can bear a certain degree of axial load in one direction. Generally, stamping steel cages or solid cages made of copper alloy cars are used. However, there is also a part of the use of polyamide forming cage. Features 1. The roller and the raceway are in line contact or repaired offline contact, with large radial bearing capacity, suitable for bearing heavy loads and impact loads. 2. The friction coefficient is small, suitable for high speed, and the limit speed is close to the deep groove ball bearing. 3. The N type and NU type can move axially, can adapt to the change of the relative position of the shaft and the housing caused ...
