SKF Housing SNL3160  Design & Structure‌

• ‌Type‌: Split plummer block housing (SNL series), designed for ‌large-scale industrial equipment‌ with tight fit adapter sleeves.
• ‌Dimensions‌:
  • Bore diameter: 500mm
  • Outer diameter: 830mm
  • Thickness: 350mm
  • Weights: 301kgs
• ‌Sealing‌: Standard oil seals (TURT variant) or optional ‌Taconite/TXL lip seals‌ for harsh environments (e.g., dust, moisture).

‌Key Applications‌

1. ‌Heavy Machinery‌:
   • Mining equipment (ore crushers, conveyor systems)
   • Industrial presses and forging machines.
2. ‌Material Handling‌:
   • Bulk material transport systems (e.g., cement plant rollers).
3. ‌Energy & Infrastructure‌:
   • Hydraulic turbines and wind turbine gearboxes.

‌Installation & Maintenance‌

• ‌Mounting‌: Requires ‌precision alignment‌ (shaft tolerance ≤ H7) to prevent micro-movement damage.
• ‌Lubrication‌:
  • Grease: SKF LGMT 2/3 for standard conditions (relubrication interval: 500–1,000 hours)
  • Oil: ISO VG 220 for high-speed operation (max 1,200 rpm).
• ‌Inspection‌: Monitor vibration levels (>4.5 mm/s RMS indicates potential bearing wear).

‌Compatibility & Options‌

• ‌Adapter Sleeves‌: Matches SKF 23160 K/C 3160 K spherical roller bearings.
• ‌Upgrades‌:
  • ‌TSN seals‌: Enhanced particle resistance for open environments
  • ‌TXL seals‌: Extended lifespan in abrasive conditions (e.g., mining).

‌Note‌: Avoid axial overload (>15% of radial capacity) to prevent seal deformation.
