Technical information on Self-aligning ball bearings

Self-aligning ball bearings are particularly suitable:

• if there is skewing between the outer and inner ring (for the compensation of angular misalignments)
• for bearing arrangements with high radial loads
• for higher speeds on account of their point contact, than barrel roller bearings with line contact
• where bearings with the above-mentioned characteristics are expected to run more quietly and at lower temperatures, even at high speeds
