Find key technical answers regarding dimensions, specifications, and replacement options for this model.
Model NU2968 is manufactured by CHG Bearing in standard Normal clearance (CN) for ambient temperature transmission, and C3 or C4 clearance for heavy duty applications. C3 clearance compensates for radial shrinkage caused by tight shaft press-fits (bore 340 mm) and steep thermal gradients between inner and outer rings.
The Open Type engineered for NU2968 by CHG Bearing utilizes precision non-contact metal shields or reinforced NBR/FKM contact lip seals. This barrier prevents particulate ingress, washdown fluids, and abrasive dust from reaching the raceways while eliminating grease leakage under centrifugal forces.
The CHG Bearing NU2968 is rated for limiting speeds up to standard rated RPM under forced oil-mist or circulating oil lubrication regimes. When lubricated with factory-filled synthetic high-speed grease, safe continuous velocity is maintained at approximately 75% to 85% of the maximum nominal limit, preventing thermal runaway.
Built for demanding industrial environments, the NU2968 Single Row Cylindrical Roller Bearings by CHG Bearing boasts a dynamic load rating (Cr) of standard dynamic and a static load threshold (C0r) of standard static. The optimized internal raceway geometry balances stress distribution, mitigating edge loading even when operating under peak mechanical stresses.
