Product Introduction
BT2-8690BB is a heavy-duty pre-assembled sealed double-row tapered roller bearing unit designed exclusively for railway wheel set axle box systems, complying with strict EN12080 railway industry standards. Manufactured from high-purity vacuum-degassed carburized bearing steel with P5 high-precision machining and standardized heat treatment, this bearing delivers exceptional structural rigidity, outstanding wear resistance and long contact fatigue life for continuous heavy railway operation.
This integrated bearing unit is engineered to sustain heavy combined radial loads and stable bidirectional axial thrust loads. It effectively copes with complex operating conditions including track vibration, impact loads, vehicle curve negotiation and frequent variable-speed operation. Adopting optimized logarithmic roller crowning structure, it eliminates edge stress concentration, improves overall shock resistance and ensures stable running accuracy under harsh and alternating load environments.
Equipped with a high-efficiency multi-lip integrated sealing system, the bearing provides reliable protection against dust, sand, moisture and other external contaminants, preventing grease leakage and internal corrosion. The pre-assembled cartridge structure simplifies installation, inspection and daily overhaul procedures, greatly reducing vehicle maintenance downtime and operational costs for railway transit systems.
