SKF AXK 5578 55mm I.D Needle Roller Bearing, 78mm O.D

In search of a slimline solution for dealing with heavy axial loads? Try this roller bearing from SKF. It takes static loads up to 186kN, so it's a good option for supporting weighty products through intense warehousing processes. The needle rollers minimise friction to deliver a long service life. Slotting the product onto a busy shaft is easy thanks to its narrow 3mm race width. As the bearing uses nearby shaft components as a raceway, it saves on space.

• Hard-wearing sheet steel cage for effective impact resistance
• Handles operating speeds up to 4300r/min to tackle high-velocity tasks
• Pairs with a bearing washer (208-0132) for ease of installation
• Works in temperatures up to +120°C, so it can cope with demanding environments

• Packaging plants
• Sorting systems
• Food production
• Assembly lines

You can run this bearing on other components if those parts are as solid and smoothly finished as a standard bearing washer. They also need to provide the same degree of axial run-out for full compatibility.
