Product Description

The SKF 22226 EK is a double-row spherical roller bearing engineered for applications subjected to heavy radial loads and axial loads in both directions. Its self-aligning internal geometry enables the bearing to compensate for shaft deflection and housing misalignment, reducing stress on adjacent machine components.

With dimensions of 130 mm bore, 230 mm outside diameter and 64 mm width, this bearing is suitable for heavy-duty industrial equipment requiring high load capacity and dependable performance. The K designation indicates a tapered bore with a 1:12 taper, allowing mounting on tapered shafts or adapter sleeves according to SKF recommendations.

The spherical roller design provides excellent load distribution between the rollers and raceways while maintaining smooth operation under demanding operating conditions. These bearings are widely used in industrial machinery, mining equipment, conveyors, crushers, gearboxes, paper mills, steel processing equipment and other heavy-duty mechanical systems where reliability is essential.

Final bearing selection should always be based on the machine manufacturer's technical documentation and application requirements.
