Split spherical roller bearings for VALE

Angular contact ball bearing, also known as acbb bearing, is a kind of inseparable bearing, the side shoulders of inner ring and outer ring are uneven. In order to increase the load capacity, one of the side shoulder will be lower than the other. This kind of bearings has raceways both on inner ring and outer ring.

This bearing can form a compact assembling in axial direction. The bearing is stiff and can bear heave axial loads but is insensitive to radial loads.

Spherical thrust roller bearings is a kind of thrust rolling bearing. They allow low friction rotation and angular deviation and are designed to bear radial load and one-way axial load.
