Rod end with self-aligning roller bearing Durbal

DURBAL heavy-duty rod ends with integral self-aligning roller bearings, Series BRTM, BRTF
The design based on the structure of a self-aligning roller bearing is preferably used for high speed, large tilting angles or rotating motion with medium loads. Compared to rod ends with selfaligning ball bearings, rod ends with selfaligning roller bearings have essentially higher basic load ratings. This design is equipped with a cage to minimize the rolling friction and heat built-up. These rod ends are under normal operating conditions maintenance-free. A Grease nipple is provided for lubrication in case of rough operation and maximum load. To avoid incompatibility with the initial lubrication, we recommend lubricating with a calcium-complexsoap- grease or Polyrex EP2. Shields on both sides prevent dirt particles from penetrating into the bearing. The rod ends with selfaligning roller bearings are, just as the design with self-aligning ball bearings, subjected to a special heat treatment procedure to match the racway hardness to the antifriction bearings, ensuring at the same time a high stability with changing loads and temperature.
