The outer circle of the spherical needle roller bearing is designed as a convex spherical surface. Two polymer seats with an outer concave spherical design are combined in a stamped steel ring and installed on the outer ring.
Aligning needle roller bearings automatically adjust for static misalignment of 3°.
In applications where space is at a premium, spherical needle roller bearings provide a compact solution.
Due to the large number of rollers, spherical needle roller bearings have a high load-bearing capacity.
