Cylindrical roller bearings are used for rollers for rolling elements, and therefore has a high load capacity. The rollers are guided by the ribs of the inner or outer ring.
The inner and outer rings can be separated to facilitate assembly, and both can be fitted with shaft or housing tightly. If there are no ribs, either the inner or the outer ring can move freely in the axial direction. Cylindrical roller earing are of different types, like N, NU, NJ, NUP,NF depending upon the construction of inner and outer rings. Cylindrical roller bearings are designed with multiple row rollers and full compliment rollers without cage depending on the applications. These bearings are suitable for heavy radial and impact loading and are appropriate for high speed applications.
