Buying Guide
Choosing the Right Type
What to check before specifying a self aligning bearing.
Step 01
Confirm the misalignment angle
Measure or estimate expected shaft deflection to confirm it sits within the bearing's rated tolerance.
Step 02
Cylindrical or tapered bore
Tapered bore with an adapter sleeve suits plain shafting without a locating shoulder.
Step 03
Do not over-rely on self-alignment
This bearing accommodates minor misalignment, it is not a substitute for correct initial shaft alignment.

FAQ
Frequently Asked Questions
Common questions about self aligning ball bearings, answered by our counter team.
How much misalignment can this bearing handle?
Typically 2 to 3 degrees depending on series, sufficient for shaft deflection and installation tolerance, not a substitute for correct alignment practice.
What is a K-type bearing?
A self aligning ball bearing with a 1:12 tapered bore, mounted on an adapter sleeve rather than fitted directly to a stepped shaft.
Can these take thrust loads?
They accommodate limited axial load in addition to radial load, but are not intended as a primary thrust bearing.
