Single Row Externally Aligning Ball Bearing

The Single Row Externally Aligning ball bearings are used where accurate alignment cannot be ensured between bearing positions. This bearing type can mainly take radial loads. Axial loads can also be accommodated.

The shell housing must not be made an interference fit on their outside diameter. If an interference fit is used, the shell housing may contract and prevent alignment. These bearings can be located endwise in both the directions.
