BBS Bearings Spherical feature the industry's highest load rating: a full 18% higher than a standard spherical roller bearing. This level of quality means at least a 75% extension of service life. The performance of these spherical is achieved through the use of very high quality raw materials and optimized rolling element geometry.The unique design also leads to:. Reduced friction torque (as much as 30% less), offering lower operating temperature, with lower power and lubricant consumption. Appreciably increased operating speed, allowing an extended scope of applications. High temperature capacity of up to 200o C (392oF) for metallic cage bearings. Dimensional stability is ensured by a specific heat treatment. A +/- 0.5o misalignment capability, without reducing the load capacity, and up to 1o 30' in case of low loads.
