Self Aligning Ball Bearing
Two rows of balls with a spherical outer raceway. Automatically compensates for shaft misalignment and angular deflection.
Technical Overview
Self Aligning Ball Bearings feature two rows of balls running on a common spherical outer raceway. This spherical raceway allows the bearing to automatically compensate for angular misalignment between the shaft and the housing — caused by shaft deflection, installation errors, or thermal expansion — without generating additional stress on the bearing.
The misalignment compensation makes these bearings ideal for long shaft applications, where shaft deflection under load is unavoidable, and for mounted unit arrangements where perfect alignment between the housing and shaft is difficult to achieve.

View all →Deep Groove Ball Bearing
The most widely used bearing type globally. Handles both radial and axial loads in both directions with minimal friction.
Angular Contact Ball Bearing
Designed for combined radial and high axial loads. The contact angle defines the axial-to-radial load ratio.
Thrust Ball Bearing
Engineered exclusively for pure axial loads on vertical or horizontal shafts. Available in single and double direction.
