23096 CA.W33 STC spherical roller bearing

STC 23096 CA.W33 Spherical Roller Bearing – Heavy Duty Excellence

The STC 23096 CA.W33 is a high-performance double-row rolling unit engineered for extreme load-carrying capacity. Thanks to the barrel-shaped rollers, this bearing features a natural self-aligning capability, ensuring faultless operation even under significant shaft deflections or housing misalignments. This model stands out with its CA internal design, featuring a solid two-piece brass cage that provides precise roller guidance, thermal stability, and maximum resistance to vibrations and dynamic shocks.

Application

• Mining & Quarrying: Main bearings for heavy-duty crushers, vibrating screens, and large conveyor drive drums.
• Metallurgy: Steel rolling mills, heavy casting machinery, and transport equipment in harsh environments.
• Paper Industry: Large-scale pressing and drying cylinders subjected to constant, massive pressure.
• Renewable Energy: Main shaft bearings for onshore and offshore wind turbines.
• Marine Engineering: Heavy-duty ship winches, port crane slewing mechanisms, and propeller shafts.

Technical Specification

• Manufacturer: STC (Specialized Technical Components).
• Designation: 23096 CA.W33.
• Dimensions: 480 mm (ID) x 700 mm (OD) x 165 mm (Width).
• Internal Clearance: CN (Normal) – optimal for standard operating temperatures and fits.
• Cage (CA): Solid two-piece brass cage (inner ring guided).
• Lubrication (W33): Circumferential groove and three holes in the outer ring for efficient relubrication.

Features and Benefits

• Solid Brass Cage (CA): Ensures mechanical stability and longer service life compared to steel cages, especially under boundary lubrication.
• Self-Aligning Capability: Automatically compensates for misalignment, protecting the bearing from edge loading.
• W33 System: Facilitates precise lubricant delivery directly to the rolling zone, minimizing friction and wear.
• Extreme Radial Load Capacity: Double-row spherical design allows for handling the highest forces in heavy industry.
• Open Design: Simplifies technical inspections and allows for free lubricant exchange in oil-bath or circulating systems.

Why Choose This Product

Opting for the STC 23096 CA.W33 bearing is a strategic investment in your plant's uptime. In 480 mm shaft applications, any unplanned downtime results in staggering costs. The combination of a reinforced brass cage and a precise lubrication system makes this one of the most reliable solutions on the market for professionals prioritizing uncompromising durability.
