Technical guides, installation instructions, and best practices for getting the most out of your Extreme Bearing stainless steel bearing units.
Type T Bearing Insert – Double Row Spherical Roller
Self-aligning double row spherical roller insert for Extreme Bearing stainless steel housings. High radial capacity and misalignment tolerance for demanding shafts.
Type TC Bearing Insert – Cylindrical Bore Spherical Roller
Spherical roller insert with cylindrical bore for precision shaft seating. Ideal when the shaft journal matches a cylindrical seat without adapter mounting.
Type TV Bearing Insert – Spherical Roller with Set Screw Locking
Spherical roller insert with set screw locking for quick shaft fixation. Common on processing lines where positive retention and alignment are both required.
Type V Bearing Insert – Spherical Roller with V-Ring Retention
Spherical roller insert with V-ring style retention for axial location and sealing synergy. Used where axial forces and retention elements must work with the seal package.
Type KV Bearing Insert – Ball Bearing with Set Screw Locking
Deep groove ball insert with set screw locking for compact, cost-efficient duty in stainless housings. Higher speed potential than heavy roller inserts on light to moderate radial loads.
Type KVA Bearing Insert – Ball Bearing, Reversed Set Screw Arrangement
Ball insert with reversed set screw orientation relative to KV for specific shaft access or mounting constraints in the same performance class.
