2308 C3 KOYO - Self-Aligning Ball Bearing 40x90x33

Self-aligning ball bearing for misalignment compensation

The 2308 C3 KOYO is a self-aligning ball bearing designed for industrial applications where shaft misalignment, deflection or mounting inaccuracies occur. The spherical outer ring raceway allows the bearing to automatically adjust its position, ensuring smooth and stable operation even under non-ideal alignment conditions.

C3 internal clearance and steel cage for continuous operation

The C3 internal clearance enables reliable performance at elevated temperatures and higher rotational speeds, making this bearing suitable for demanding operating conditions.
The pressed steel cage used in the 2308 C3 KOYO provides high mechanical strength, stable guidance of the rolling elements and long service life during continuous operation.

Industrial applications and bearing units

The 2308 C3 self-aligning ball bearing is commonly used in:

• industrial machinery and production equipment

• drive systems exposed to shaft deflection

• bearing housings and bearing units

• applications requiring high durability and tolerance to mounting errors

It is a proven solution for industrial environments where reliability and long-term performance are essential.

Main description

The 2308 C3 KOYO is a robust self-aligning ball bearing developed for industrial applications where shaft misalignment or structural deflection cannot be avoided. Its self-aligning design reduces additional stresses within the bearing arrangement, extending service life and improving operational reliability.

The C3 clearance supports stable performance under variable thermal conditions and load fluctuations. The steel cage ensures high resistance to mechanical stress and consistent rolling element guidance. This bearing is widely used in industrial applications requiring high durability, resistance to mounting errors and reliable continuous operation.
