When to use self-aligning bearings?

Self-aligning bearings are designed for applications where misalignment or angular displacement between the shaft and the bearing housing is expected. Misalignment can be adjusted inside or outside the bearing.

How do self aligning ball bearing work?

Often referred to as the “ideal” ball, we demystify how self-aligning bearings run and share their multiple uses.

Have you ever wondered what self-aligning ball bearings and roller bearings, or other custom solutions to distinguish? How exactly do these bearings self-align? These little wonders are often recommended and designed to be placed in the application; otherwise, there is a dislocation. Assembly errors may come from misalignment, deflection, machine errors or other manufacturing defects.

Self-aligning bearing design has so many uses in the game. Self-aligning ball bearings include two volleyball and a spherical outer ring.

This unique ball bearing outer race (sometimes doubling in the self-aligning bearing) can self-align and run smoothly without causing any stress on bearings. As it involves a roller, these units can be run faster than the other bearing. These bearings have many variations, making them essential goods in your industry.
