Collection: Self-Aligning Ball Bearings

Self-aligning ball bearings feature a double-row design with a spherical outer ring raceway that allows the inner ring, balls, and cage to pivot freely. This compensates for angular misalignment between shaft and housing, making them ideal for applications where deflection or mounting errors are expected. They accommodate radial loads and limited axial loads in both directions, operating at moderate to high speeds with low friction.

Bearing designations like 1305, 1309, 1310, 1313, and 1315 indicate bore sizes from 25mm to 75mm in the 13-series, while the 'K' suffix denotes a tapered bore for mounting on adapter sleeves. Common applications include agricultural machinery, conveyor systems, woodworking equipment, and fans where shaft deflection or misalignment occurs during operation.
