The most reliable bearing in the industry
These types of bearings are tiltable and have a large load capacity. They are suitable for low, medium speeds and heavy, impact loads. When choosing cylindrical roller bearings, the inner and outer diameter of the bearing is important. Other important data for cylindrical roller bearings are the overall width, rated speed, static, dynamic axial and radial loads.
More than 100 years of knowledge and innovation in the field of cylindrical roller bearings , that's exactly how long it was when the Swedish engineer Sven Winguist invented them for the SKF company. Thanks to years of development, these bearings are so advanced that they can last several times longer than their competitors under typically difficult conditions.
Due to their design, SKF cylindrical roller bearings can be suitable for applications with very high radial and heavy axial loads, prone to misalignment or misalignment of the shaft.
SKF's Explorer cylindrical roller bearings are fully interchangeable with previous SKF standard cylindrical roller bearings of the same dimensions. These are available as open bearings, sealed bearings and bearings for vibration applications.
Powerful, patented SKF Xbite steel
SKF Explorer bearings are made of Xbite heat-treated steel - an extremely clean steel with reduced oxygen content that provides greater strength, surface hardness and dimensional stability at high temperatures. Higher hardness results in reduced wear, resulting in longer service life.
Benefits for the end user
Excellent friction control
SKF Explorer cylindrical roller bearings move with lower friction than competitive bearings. The cylinders are guided separately according to a design principle that results in excellent friction control. As a result, your machine will work more efficiently and will not need to be relubricated as often.
The test results speak for themselves
SKF tested and tested cylindrical roller bearings from various suppliers to see how long they would last. When comparing the test results, the excellent reliability of the SKF Explorer kegs was shown. After 400 million revolutions, the SKF bearings were still running and the test was interrupted without the SKF Explorer reaching its maximum service life.
