Classification | Support Rollers |
Support Rollers are cylindrical roller bearings with an extra radially thick outer ring.
Support Rollers usually run with their outer ring either directly on a guide track or against a machine surface that is for guidance.
Due to their extra - thick outer rings, support rollers are able to accept high radial forces as well as shock loads. Their ability to
accommodate axial forces, however, depends on the particular design of the support roller. Support rollers are usually exposed
to minor misalignments during operation. To minimize the negative effects of such misalignments, (e.g. high edge stresses), support
rollers are more frequently used with sphered outer rings.
URB - support rollers with parallel (cylindrical) outer diameters are indicated by the suffix “X”.
