The SKF CARB toroidal roller bearings have one row of long, slightly barrel-shaped symmetrical rollers and torus-shaped raceway profiles. They are non-locating bearings and accommodate exclusively radial loads. CARB bearings are often used to replace the non-locating spherical roller bearing in a locating/non-locating bearing arrangement.
Accommodate misalignment CARB bearings are self-aligning like spherical roller bearings or self-aligning ball bearings. Accommodate axial displacement CARB bearings compensate for thermal expansion of the shaft like cylindrical or needle roller bearings . Wide assortment of dimension series CARB bearings are available with the same boundary dimensions as corresponding spherical roller bearings, self-aligning ball bearings, cylindrical roller bearings and needle roller bearings. Long service life The special roller profile prevents stress peaks at the roller ends. Low friction Self-guiding rollers keep friction and frictional heat at low levels. Improved wear resistance All CARB bearings are upgraded SKF Explorer bearings. Low noise
