SKF Self-Aligning Ball Bearing 90 mm Inside Diameter 160 mm Outside Diameter 40 mm Race Width 2 Row Sheet Metal Cage 2218

SKF 2218 self-aligning ball bearing is a precision rotary bearing with a 90 mm inside diameter and 160 mm outside diameter designed to accommodate angular misalignment in shafts and housings. It incorporates two rows of steel balls enclosed in a sheet metal cage, which provides robustness and long service life in demanding industrial environments.

This bearing type features an open end and a bore type that is parallel, with a race width of 40 mm. The outer ring has a common sphered raceway, while the inner ring contains two deep uninterrupted grooves, allowing the bearing to compensate for shaft deflection and housing misalignment without compromising performance. This makes it ideal for mechanical, fluid power, manufacturing, and construction applications where shaft alignment can vary.

The SKF 2218 bearing supports a limiting speed of 5300 rpm, suitable for high-speed rotary systems. The static and dynamic load ratings of 28.5 kN and 70.2 kN, respectively, signify its capacity to handle substantial radial and axial loads effectively. The bearing uses steel balls and is critical for reducing friction and wear in machinery components.

Manufactured in Malaysia, the bearing meets SKF's quality standards, assuring high reliability and durability for industrial use. Its open-ended design facilitates maintenance and lubrication, enhancing serviceability.
