The locking mechanism based on an adapter sleeve.
Perfect, firmly concentric fit on the shaft. Mounting a bearing with an adapter sleeve is technically the best mounting option for double row spherical roller bearings.
This video shows a Extreme Bearing without the cover, allowing you to see the bearing mounted on the shaft using a locking adapter.
Things to Consider:
For a standard double-row spherical roller bearing mounted on a shaft with an adapter sleeve, the bearing itself is usually not the limiting factor for axial load. The limiting factor is often the axial retention provided by the adapter sleeve mounting arrangement.
Please verify the axial load requirements and, if necessary, use our Product Chooser ( Link naar de Chooser) to select a more suitable bearing assembly.
Mounting a bearing with an adapter sleeve is technically the best mounting option. However, installation must be carried out by a skilled technician. follow the mounting instructions.
