Roller Bearing Offer Improved Performance


Emerson Industrial Automation says its Sealmaster mounted spherical roller bearing is an advanced design that combines traditional Sealmaster features and built-in benefits with even more performance and value. Emerson engineers developed and manufactured new geometries to create an innovative double-row spherical roller bearing for load capacity, misalignment and speed capabilities. The bearings feature pillow blocks that contain high-capacity double-row spherical roller bearings designed to carry high radial and combination loads. According to Emerson, the new bearing series has a basic dynamic rating (BDR) higher than competing brands utilizing a similar cartridge design. Key among its features is the product’s availability in two distinct locking systems: setscrew- lock bore sizes from 5-7/16 to 7 in.; and adapter lock with bore sizes from 5- 7/16 to 8 in. Its race-mounted seals accommodate ±2° misalignment for improved performance. In addition the new bearing series offers a simple shaft-ready design available from the factory, with replaceable cartridge inserts that mount up to six times more quickly than competitive versions, allowing for easier installation and maintenance.
