Spherical roller bearings have two rows of rollers with one common spherical raceway in the outer ring and two inner ring raceways inclined at an angle to the bearing axis.The self-aligning spherical roller bearing can accommodate both radial and thrust loads and is designed to operate even if the shaft and housing become misaligned under load. This type of bearing is the favoured choice when operating conditions include heavy loads plus difficulties in establishing or maintaining shaft alignment relative to the bearing housing.
