Our Star Performer
The operating life has now been more than doubled.
For more cost-efficiency and operating safety.

Axial spherical roller bearings E1 are capable of supporting very high axial loads and allow relatively high speeds. Both under the harshest of operating conditions. For example in gearboxes, calenders, engines in marine applications and rudder engines, lifting gear, construction machinery and rolling mills.

Advantages of X-life quality

Higher machine availability
New design possibilities
More economical bearing supports due to downsizing
Lower operating costs due to reduced energy consumption

• The operating life has more than doubled under the same loads
• Same operating life under significantly higher loads
• Suitable for high speeds due to lower friction
• Improved guidance and vibration characteristics due to very high running accuracy
• Lower wear due to optimal lubricant film formation
• Lubricant is subjected to less strain due to lower bearing temperatures

Range

The transition to the new design of axial spherical roller bearings will begin with the bearings of heavy series 294..-E1. These bearings are predominantly used in response to very high requirements for load carrying capacity. Smaller bearings of series 294..-E1, as well as smaller bearings of the medium heavy series 293..-E1, have sheet steel cages. The larger bearings of these two series have a solid brass cage as standard. Numerous bearings of the series 293..-E1 and 294..-E1 are of X-life quality. These bearings are indicated in the dimension tables.
