Insert Ball Bearing with Wide Inner Ring and Set Screws – 2-1/8 Inch Bore

Description

When you’re dealing with a wobbly shaft or hearing grinding noises from your equipment, chances are you’ve got a worn bearing that’s letting everything get out of alignment. This self-aligning ball bearing with its wide inner ring locks securely to the shaft with two set screws, giving you a rock-solid connection that handles the side loads and vibration that come with farm work. The wide inner ring design spreads the clamping force evenly so you don’t damage the shaft when you tighten things down.

What You’re Getting

• Self-aligning ball bearing design that compensates for slight shaft misalignment and keeps running smooth
• Wide inner ring with dual set screws that lock tight to the shaft without slipping under heavy loads
• 2-1/8 inch bore fits common agricultural shaft sizes with 3.937 inch outside diameter for proper housing fit
• Greasable design with fittings so you can keep it lubricated for long service life
• Spherical outer race that allows the bearing to self-align even when housings aren’t perfectly straight

Built for Real Farm Work

This bearing size is commonly found in auger drives, conveyor systems, tillage equipment, and other heavy-duty agricultural applications where you need reliable rotation under challenging conditions. Whether it’s handling the constant vibration of a grain elevator, the shock loads of a cultivator hitting rocks, or the steady operation of a feed mixer, this bearing keeps your equipment running when there’s work to be done.

Made to Last

AgSmart bearings are built to handle the dust, moisture, and temperature swings that destroy lesser parts. The greasable design means you can pump in fresh lubricant to flush out contaminants and extend bearing life. The wide inner ring distributes clamping loads better than narrow rings, reducing shaft damage and preventing the loosening that causes premature failure.

Installation Notes

Make sure the shaft is clean and free of nicks before installing – any imperfections will cause the bearing to loosen over time. Tighten both set screws evenly and use thread locker to prevent them from backing out under vibration. Grease the bearing before installation and establish a regular greasing schedule based on your operating conditions.
