Test shows that new designed large sealed bearings from SKF reduce grease consumption in the bearing up to 99 percent when used in high-pressure grinding rolls
New designed large bearings from SKF used in applications such as mining machinery reduce grease consumption in the bearing up to 99 percent and last up to twice as long as conventional open bearings – extending service life and cutting costs.Gothenburg, Sweden 6 October 2021: SKF has extended its range of large bearings for roller presses, with a sealed version that prolongs service life. Its Explorer spherical roller bearings (SRBs) in the 241 series are now available up to 1250mm bore. This series and sizes are commonly used in high-pressure grinding rolls (HPGRs) in cement and mining
