Combined Bearings

Combined Bearings

Combined bearing, also known as composite roller bearing, was first designed by Europeans. It is a rolling bearing composed of two bearing structures simultaneously. Specifically, the internal structure of this bearing can contain short cylindrical, tapered, or drum-shaped rollers as rolling elements.

For different application scenarios and working conditions, different types of combined bearings need to be selected, such as crossed cylindrical roller bearings, tapered roller bearings, angular contact ball bearings, etc. At the same time, it is also necessary to operate and maintain in strict accordance with the use specifications of the bearings during use to ensure the long-service stable operation of the bearings and prolong their service life.

Classification of combined bearings

According to the structure and application, it can be further classified into standard crossed roller bearings and high rigidity crossed roller bearings.

Standard-type crossed roller bearing: the outer ring of this bearing is divided into two parts, fixed with screws. It is mainly suitable for the rotating parts of industrial robots, machine tools, and medical equipment that require small size, high rigidity, and high rotation accuracy.

High rigidity type crossed roller bearing: The inner and outer rings of this kind of bearing are all in one structure (non-split), with high precision and high rigidity, and are mainly suitable for industrial robots and machine tools that require small size, high rigidity and high rotational accuracy and rotating parts of medical equipment.


No matter what type of composite roller bearings, they all have open and sealed types. Open bearings do not have internal seals, while sealed bearings have special synthetic rubber seals. These bearings have a wide range of uses and excellent performance within their scope of application, providing stable and reliable support and rotation for various mechanical equipment.


The main constituent materials of Combined bearings include

Shaft head: Heat treatment, together with other parts, generally quenching and tempering, are used to increase hardness.

Main roller: It is the main load-bearing part in the bearing, usually made of high-carbon chromium bearing steel (GCr15), which has high hardness and wear resistance after heat treatment.

Side roller: It is the secondary load-bearing part in the composite roller bearing, usually made of carburized steel (17CrNiMo6), which has high surface hardness and wear resistance after heat treatment.

Cover plate: used to install and fix the main roller, side roller, and shaft head, generally made of medium carbon steel (35CrMo).

In addition, bearing cages are usually made of brass or polymer materials to reduce friction and wear.

Generally, the material selection of a Combined bearing is determined according to its use environment and working conditions to ensure that the bearing has good performance and long life.


  • The model and parameters of the combined bearing

  • Fixed Combined Bearings

Fixed combined bearings are particularly suitable to be used in forklift masts and in any other moving and handling system, where rolled or extruded profiles are used. The best combination axial part/radial part allows to get high load capacity with extremely small dimensions of the bearing, in addition to easiness of assembling on any kind of structure.

Adjustable Combined Bearings

Adjustable combined bearings have the same characteristics as fixed combined bearings. The only difference is the possibility to adjust the distance between bearing and profile through the use of washers.

Adjustable Combined Bearings with Eccentric Pin

Adjustable combined bearings with Eccentric Pin have the same characteristics as adjustable combined bearings. In this case, the adjusting of the distance is made through the rotation of the whole axial part (pin and little roll) in the central pivot.

Adjustable Combined Bearings with Steel Cap

As for the previous series, adjustable combined bearings with steel cap maintain a very high resistance to applied loads, and at the same time, they have an easy system of axial adjusting. Also in this case, the adjusting is made through the shifting of a central screw laid on the cap. In comparison to the adjustable execution with plastic cap, this execution can bear much higher axial loads, and therefore its wear is drfinitely lower.


Combined bearings for high speed

Combined bearings for high speed maintain the same technical characteristics as fixed combined bearings. They are provided with bronze cages both in the radial and in the axial part, therefore they can rotate at a high speed. They are provided also with Viton seals, so that they can bear heavy working conditions and work on high temperatures.

Precision Combined bearings

Precision combined bearings maintain the same characteristics as the previous series. They are manufactured with a wider diameter than the standard ones, because they are used in machined profiles. The very precise coupling between profile and bearing represents a very good and economic solution in comparison to linear guides. These bearings are being used in alternative to the linear guides more often.

Combined bearings welded on plate

Usually, combined bearings are welded on plete. This is an ideal solution because the bearing welded on plate is directly on the structure of the plant, with the big advantage that the assembling and disassembling operations are extremely fast and cheap. The combined bearings on plate can be supplied in the fixed or adjustable execution.


Adjustable combined bearings for heavy industry

Big size adjustable combined bearings can bear very high loads. They are mainly used for masts of fork lifts up to 50TN and in steel industry where they are used as a wheel for rolling mills carrying cars.
