23234-K Spherical roller bearing

23234-K The 23234-K is a spherical roller bearing from the 232 series with a 170 mm tapered bore (1:12 taper). Spherical roller bearings feature two rows of barrel-shaped rollers running on a common spherical outer ring raceway, providing self-aligning capability to accommodate shaft deflection and misalignment. These bearings are commonly used in heavy industrial applications including mining equipment, paper mills, gearboxes, and rolling mills where high radial loads, moderate thrust loads, and misalignment compensation are required. The tapered bore design facilitates mounting on tapered shafts or adapter sleeves for secure positioning.
