This self-aligning ball bearing compensates for shaft misalignment and deflection thanks to its spherical outer raceway, allowing the inner ring, balls and cage to tilt relative to the outer ring axis. It has a bore diameter of 60.0 mm, an outside diameter of 110.0 mm and a net mass of 1.54 kg. The cage is made of glass-fibre reinforced plastic (TVH design), which reduces friction and mass compared to a solid cage. Limiting speed is 6900 1/min, with a reference speed of 6300 1/min. The plastic TVH cage lowers operating temperature at higher speeds and permits smooth operation under the tilting motion inherent to self-aligning bearings. The open design allows the mounting of separate sealing and lubrication solutions suited to the application, and the self-aligning geometry makes the bearing tolerant of housing misalignment and shaft bending, reducing edge loading on the raceways.
