Roller bearings

Roller bearings use cylindrical or spherical rolling elements that create a larger contact surface than ball bearings. This design allows them to support higher radial loads, making them ideal for heavy-duty and slow-speed applications such as axles, gearboxes, wheels, and industrial equipment.

Unlike ball bearings, which have point contact, roller bearings provide line contact, distributing loads more evenly and reducing wear under pressure. They are engineered to withstand shock, vibration, and harsh environments without compromising performance.

They are available in single- or double-row configurations, with or without cages, and optionally with seals or integrated lubrication systems. Some designs also handle limited axial loads.

Typical applications and features:

• High radial load capacity at low to moderate speeds

• Line contact ensures stable load distribution

• Rugged, impact- and vibration-resistant design

• Available with steel or brass cages, sealed or open

• Used in drivetrains, gear systems, axles, and wheels

At Sanders Parts, we offer top-grade roller bearings built for maximum strength and durability. The perfect solution where power and performance need to work side by side.
