The BC4B 326858/HB3 Four-row cylindrical roller bearings mainly consist of an inner ring, an outer ring, four rows of cylindrical rollers, a cage, and a spacer. Common structures use a configuration of double outer rings (each with double raceways) and a single inner ring (with four raceways), or an interchangeable combination of inner and outer rings. Axial positioning and load distribution are achieved through the spacer.
The advantages of four-row cylindrical roller bearings are their extremely high radial load capacity, high rigidity, and the line contact between the rollers and raceways, resulting in a low coefficient of friction and allowing for high-speed operation under heavy loads. They can also be used as floating end bearings, capable of withstanding axial displacement caused by thermal expansion, and are easy to install and maintain.
