R2000 Bearings Overview

Royersford R2000 Mounted Spherical Bearings are engineered to handle misalignment and last. Made in the USA with compact, rugged gray iron housings and premium SKF spherical inserts to deliver long-lasting performance in applications requiring high load capacity and self-alignment. Designed for fast installation and dependable operation, R2000 bearings are available in shaft sizes from 1 7⁄16” through 5” and widely stocked throughout the US and Canada.

Key Benefits:

Self-Aligning spherical strength for demanding applications
Heavy radial & axial load capacity

Factory assembled, sealed, and lubricated
Handles ± 1½° misalignment

Expansion units provide 0.100” movement
SKF spherical performance with Royersford durability

Why SKF Bearings Stand Out:

Engineered for demanding industrial environments
Excellent performance under high loads
Allows both running and static misalignment
Operates reliably at elevated temperatures

Materials & Construction:

Durable high-strength gray iron housings, made in the USA
Compact footprint without sacrificing ruggedness
Fully machined mounting surfaces for precise alignment
Available in 2 and 4-Bolt pillow blocks, square and piloted flanges, and Take-Up units

Expansion & Non-Expansion Options

Non-Expansion units: Fixed for precise shaft control
Expansion units: Allow up to 0.100” axial movement
Both styles handle ± 1½° misalignment for easier installation and longer bearing life

Sealing System (Dual-Lip Seal)

Blocks contaminants
Retains lubrication
Self-purging to extend service life

Installation Advantages

Delivered pre-lubricated, pre-sealed, and pre-adjusted
Eliminates contamination during setup
Reduces downtime
Simplifies Maintenance
Avoids premature failure
Self-aligning design allows for fast mounting

Common Industry Applications & Equipment Uses

Include but are not limited to:

Aggregates

Cement

Bulk Handling Equipment

Pulp & Paper

Conveyor

Applications:

Conveyors and Material Handling Systems

Selection

R2000 Mounted Spherical Roller Bearings are designed for heavy radial, thrust, and combined radial/thrust loads. The maximum recommended load depends on the interaction of the bearing, housing, shaft, shaft attachment, speed, and desired bearing life.

How to Select a Bearing:

Determine the Equivalent Radial Load (P) for your application.
Choose an R2000 bearing from the load chart with a dynamic radial load capacity at the operating speed that meets or exceeds the calculated load.
This method provides reliable performance for most general applications and accommodates occasional average shock loads.

Bearing Life (L₁₀):

L₁₀ Life is the number of operating hours that at least 90% of identical bearings are expected to achieve under the same conditions.
Use the life equation below to calculate L₁₀ for conditions not covered in the standard tables.

Where:

L ₁₀ = Life hours
C = Dynamic Capacity (from table 1)
P = Equivalent Radial Load

Equivalent Radial Load (P):

If only radial load is present, P = actual radial load (Fᵣ).
For combined radial and axial loads, P = X·Fᵣ + Y·Fₐ, where X and Y are load factors taken from the factor table based on the FA/FR ratio.

Where:

F A = Axial (thrust) Load
F R = Radial Load
X = Radial Load Factor from table 1
Y = Thrust Load Factor from table 1

The shaft tolerances recommended below are adequate for normal radial and radial/thrust load applications. Where the applied radial load exceeds the Maximum Slip Fit Radial Load, a snug-to-light press fit of the shaft is required. Since the allowable load, especially at low RPM, is very large, the shaft should be checked to assure adequate shaft strength.

Shaft Tolerances:

Shaft Size	Tolerance
UP TO 1 ¹⁵⁄16"	+.0000 -.0005"
2" TO 5"	+.0000 -.0010"
