With over 230 series for a diameter range from 10 to 120mm, Schaeffler offers a comprehensive modular system of INA radial insert ball bearings and housing units, which is available in X-life quality. This means an increase in operating life and reliability with simplified mounting operations and less maintenance outlay. Furthermore, these new X-life bearings combine an increase in efficiency with significantly lower noise generation, since in usage they are running noticeably quieter than conventional bearings. The new bearings offer three times more corrosion protection efficacy, 15% increased rating life as well as less noise generation due to improved surface quality of the raceways. Operating temperature has been extended to 180°C for some series. The eccentric locking collars are made of improved materials and offer increased clamping force on the shaft. Made up of three components comprising outer cap, seal lip and inner cap, the sandwich concept seal system covers nearly all operating and environmental conditions. In addition, rolled in sheet steel seals ensure fixed seal seating and easy relubrication. The radial insert bearings and housing units can be located on the shaft using five different methods. They are used in almost all sectors of industry. In agricultural machinery, they are used mainly in harvesting machines, but they are also used in industrial fans, in material handling, in textile and machine tools, as well as in production machinery for the food industry and packing technology. These products are easy to mount and compensate non-aligned shafts at a defined swivel moment, which are decisive arguments for design engineers to use them. Due to the especially rough conditions involved, robust, reliable and low-maintenance bearing solutions offer a decisive competitive advantage.
