Natasha Odendaal:

Bearings International has introduced a new Rexnord bearing solution for demanding applications in industries such as cement, fertiliser, power generation, steel, aggregates, mining and mineral processing.

The RN series has an misalignment capability of a full 2°, a two-piece outer race and higher radial and axial load capability with a larger roller design and seals for improved bearing life and easy fitment and removal from the shaft, owing to a Shurlok adapter mounting.

The new Rexnord RN series of metric bearings offers ease of use, performance and durability and, as a drop-in replacement for existing SN500 bearings, customer benefits include efficiency and productivity, reduced downtime and a lower total cost of ownership.
