Spherical Roller Bearings
222 Series Double Row Spherical Roller Bearings
Double row spherical roller bearings in the 222 series, from 22205 (25mm bore) to 22260 (300mm bore). Carry heavy radial loads together with axial loads in both directions, and tolerate the shaft misalignment that would damage a rigid bearing — a standard choice for low-to-medium speed heavy machinery.

About Spherical Roller Bearings
Spherical roller bearings have two raceways on the inner ring and one spherical raceway on the outer ring. As the name implies, the rolling elements have a spherical profile, which lets the bearing self-align and absorb a degree of shaft misalignment or housing deflection.
Most of the bearings in the 222 series are available with the suffix options listed below, subject to design and manufacturing constraints. Bearings outside the standard range can also be developed for specific application requirements — contact our team with your requirement.
- Capable of carrying both radial loads and axial loads
- Suitable for low and medium speed applications
- Suitable for applications where some misalignment of the shaft can arise
Available Variants
- Single row type — 202 series (details available on request)
- Double row type — 213, 222, 223, 230, 231, 232, 239, 240 and 241 series
- Plain type — GE
- With C2, CN, C3 and C4 radial internal clearance
- Pressed steel or machined brass cage
Suffix Codes
Add these suffixes to the bearing number to specify clearance, cage and bore options.
| Suffix | Meaning |
|---|---|
| A | Modified internal design |
| C2 | Radial internal clearance less than normal |
| CN | Normal radial internal clearance (generally no special suffix is used for normal clearance) |
| C3 | Radial internal clearance higher than normal |
| C4 | Radial internal clearance higher than C3 |
| C | Pressed steel cage |
| CA | Machined brass cage, one-piece |
| MB | Machined brass cage, split type |
| K | Tapered bore, with taper of 1:12 |
| K30 | Tapered bore, with taper of 1:30 |
| W33 | Oil groove with oil holes in the outer ring |
Typical Applications
- Mining, quarry and crushing equipment
- Steel and cement plant machinery
- Gearboxes, fans, blowers and pumps
- Conveyors and heavy material-handling shafts
Frequently Asked Questions
What sizes are available in the 222 series?
The 222 series runs from 22205 (25mm bore) to 22260 (300mm bore). Each size has its own bearing number, listed with its dimensions, load ratings, speed rating and weight in the table above.
Can spherical roller bearings handle shaft misalignment?
Yes. The outer ring has a single spherical raceway, so the bearing can self-align and tolerate some misalignment of the shaft. They carry both radial and axial loads and are best suited to low and medium speed applications.
What do suffixes like C3, K and W33 mean?
Suffixes describe design options: C2, CN, C3 and C4 give progressively larger radial internal clearance; K and K30 indicate a tapered bore (1:12 and 1:30); C, CA and MB indicate cage type; and W33 indicates an oil groove with oil holes in the outer ring. The full list is shown above.
Do you supply other spherical roller bearing series?
Yes. Besides the 222 series we can supply the single row 202 series, the double row 213, 223, 230, 231, 232, 239, 240 and 241 series, and plain GE type bearings. Contact us with your requirement and we will confirm availability.
