SKF 2217 Self-aligning ball bearing low price

Self-aligning ball bearing features

Self-aligning ball bearings have two rows of balls, a common sphered raceway in the outer ring and two deep uninterrupted raceway grooves in the inner ring.  

They are insensitive to angular misalignment of the shaft relative to the housing, which can be caused, for example, by shaft deflection.

It commodates static and dynamic misalignment, haa excellent high-speed performance, excellent light load performance and low friction.

Installation Methods and Usage Precautions for Self-aligning Ball Bearing                                                

The installation of self-aligning ball bearings is a crucial process that can significantly impact the performance and longevity of the bearing. 

Here is a detailed guide on the installation method and usage precautions for self-aligning ball bearings: 

Installation Method: 

Cleanliness is key: Before installation, ensure that the mounting surfaces are clean and free of any dirt, dust, or debris that could affect the bearing's performance. 

Proper handling: Handle the bearing with care to prevent any damage to the components. Avoid dropping or hitting the bearing during installation. 

Correct mounting: Ensure that the bearing is mounted in the correct orientation and position as per the manufacturer's instructions. 

Improper mounting can lead to misalignment and premature bearing failure. 

Use appropriate tools: Utilize the correct tools and equipment for mounting the bearing to prevent any damage to the bearing or surrounding components. 

Lubrication: Proper lubrication is essential for the smooth operation of the bearing. Make sure to lubricate the bearing as per the manufacturer's recommendations. 

Usage Precautions: 

Misalignment: Self-aligning ball bearings are designed to accommodate misalignment to a certain extent. 

However, excessive misalignment can lead to increased wear and reduced bearing life. 

Temperature: Monitor the operating temperature of the bearing to ensure it remains within the recommended range. 

High temperatures can accelerate wear and cause premature failure. 

Overloading: Avoid overloading the bearing beyond its rated capacity as it can lead to increased stress and potential failure. 

Contamination: Protect the bearing from contamination by sealing it properly and keeping the surrounding area clean. 

Regular maintenance: Perform regular inspections and maintenance checks to detect any issues early and prevent unexpected failures. 

In summary, the correct installation of self-aligning ball bearings, along with following usage precautions, 

is essential for ensuring optimal performance and longevity of the bearing. 

By adhering to these guidelines, you can maximize the efficiency and reliability of your machinery.

Introduction and Knowledge of Self-aligning Ball Bearing                                                                            

SKF 2217 Self-aligning ball bearing is a type of rolling-element bearing designed to accommodate angular misalignment between the shaft and the housing.

• Design Features: The SKF 2217 self-aligning ball bearing has two rows of balls with a common spherical raceway in the outer ring and two deep uninterrupted raceway grooves in the inner ring. This design allows the bearing to self-align, compensating for any misalignment of the shaft relative to the housing, which can be caused by shaft deflection or errors in mounting
  

• Performance Attributes: These bearings are known for their ability to accommodate both static and dynamic misalignment, excellent high-speed performance, and low friction. They also perform well under light load conditions
  

• Load Ratings: The radial dynamic load rating for the SKF 2217 is 58.3 kN, and the radial static load rating is 23.6 kN
  

• Speeds: The reference speed for grease lubrication is 3800 r/min, and for oil lubrication, it is 4600 r/min
  

• Dimensions: The bearing has an inner diameter (I.D.) of 85 mm, an outer diameter (O.D.) of 150 mm, and a width of 36 mm
  

• Applications: The SKF 2217 is suitable for applications where substantial misalignment or shaft deflections may occur, such as in automotive power steering systems, agricultural machinery, textile machines, and conveyor systems
  

• Variants: There are variants of the 2217 bearing, such as the 2217 K, which has a tapered bore for ease of mounting via adapter sleeves or withdrawal sleeves
  

• Price: Prices for the SKF 2217 bearing can vary based on brand, quality, and supplier. It's recommended to inquire with suppliers for specific pricing according to your needs
  

This bearing is highly suitable for applications requiring high radial loads and where misalignment is a common issue, providing a long operational life and low maintenance requirements
