Overview
The SKF 22228 CCK/C3W33 is a double-row spherical roller bearing engineered for demanding industrial applications requiring high load capacity and misalignment accommodation. This tapered bore spherical roller bearing features an open design with steel cage and C3 internal clearance. The bearing includes a guide ring centred on a flangeless inner ring, two stamped steel cages, and an annular groove in the outer ring with three lubrication holes.
Key Features
- Two rows of spherical rollers enhance load-carrying capacity and stability while accommodating misalignment between the shaft and housing
- Self-aligning design accommodates misalignment, provides high load carrying capacity for both radial and heavy axial loads in both directions
- Manufactured to tight dimensional and geometrical tolerances with symmetrical rollers that self-adjust for optimal load distribution
- Low friction design with self-guiding rollers and floating guide ring that positions unloaded rollers optimally as they enter the load zone
- Steel cage construction provides robust support for harsh operating environments
- Maximum speed rating of 3200 rpm with operating temperature to +390 °F (200 °C)

Typical Applications
This bearing is suitable for applications including wind turbine main shafts, continuous casters, vibratory applications and high-speed applications. It is ideal for demanding applications in industries such as mining and heavy machinery where high radial and axial loads combined with shaft deflection or misalignment are common. The robust design makes it well-suited for mechanical power transmission, crusher gearboxes, rolling mill stands, and other industrial machinery where load capacity and durability are critical.
