Cylindrical Roller
Bearings
Cylindrical roller bearings use
rollers for rolling elements, and
therefore has a high load
capacity. The rollers are guided
by ribs on either the inner or
outer ring, therefore these
bearings are also suitable for
high speed applications. The
inner and outer rings can be
separated to facilitate assembly,
and both can be fit with shaft or
housing tightly.
Cylindrical Roller Bearings
• Very High Radial Load Capacity
• Good Speed Capability
• Separable Inner or Outer Ring
• Limited Misalignment Capability
• Rings Can Move Axially During
Operation (within limits)
Applications
– Large Electric Motors
– Gearboxes/Transmissions,
Presses
– Machine Tool Spindles
– Steel Mills (Rolling Mills)
Selection of bearing type
• Available space
• Loads
• Misalignment
• Precision
• Speed
• quiet running
• Stiffness
• axial displacement
• mounting and dismounting
• integral seals.
The primary contributors to
abnormal bearing
signaturers
• Imbalance
• Misalingment
• Rotar instability
• Excessive or abnormal loads
• Mechanical looseness
Bearing Lubrication
Oil vs. Grease
Advantages Advantages
1. Better Heat Dissipation 1. Easy to apply
2. Higher Speed Capability 2. Helps to seal
3. Can be Circulated 3. Wide range of
applications

GREASE
4. Can be Filtered
4. Better control
Disadvantages
OIL

of leakage
5. Possibility of Leakage
6. Does not Seal Disadvantages
7. Can be Displaced by Water 5. Poor heat
8. May Require More dissipation
Complicated System 6. Collects and retains
contaminants
7. Structural change
possibility (i.e. - work
hardening)
8. Possible compatibility
