Spherical Roller Bearings SKF 24132 CC/W33

The SKF 24132 CC/W33 spherical roller bearing, with dimensions of 160 × 270 × 109 mm, can withstand high radial loads and compensates for misalignment during operation.

The SKF 24132 CC/W33 self-aligning roller bearing is designed for demanding industrial applications. With a bore of 160 mm, an outer diameter of 270 mm and a width of 109 mm, this roller bearing withstands high radial forces as well as combined axial loads. The open design, made from standard 100Cr6 rolling-element bearing steel, is fitted with a sheet steel cage. This design is suitable for operating temperatures ranging from –30 to +200 degrees Celsius.

What functions does the 24132 CC/W33 self-aligning roller bearing fulfil in the event of shaft deflection?

This self-aligning roller bearing is used in bearing arrangements where shaft deflection or misalignment occurs. Thanks to the hollow spherical outer ring raceway, the roller assembly automatically adjusts itself in the event of misalignment between the shaft and the housing. This feature helps to prevent edge loading on the rollers. The double-row barrel-shaped design enables the bearing to accommodate high dynamic loads in both directions, which counteracts premature wear during continuous operation.

What is the function of the lubrication groove and lubrication holes designated W33?

The suffix W33 denotes a circumferential groove with lubrication holes in the outer ring, through which lubricant is fed directly between the two sets of rollers. The even distribution of grease or oil reduces friction at the rolling contact. In addition to the standard dimensional accuracy PN, this design features the tighter running accuracy P5. This combination supports precise guidance of the rotating components and reduces vibrations during demanding rotational movements.
