What's single row full complement cylindrical roller bearing?

Full complement cylindrical roller bearings incorporate a maximum number of rollers and are therefore suitable for very heavy radial loads. However, they cannot operate at the same high speeds as caged design cylindrical roller bearings. The standard of single row full complement cylindrical roller bearings consist of the NCF and NJG designs.

NCF design
NCF design bearings have two integral flanges on the inner ring and one integral flange on the outer ring and can thus support axial loads acting in one direction and provide axial shaft location in one direction. A retaining ring at the flangeless side of the outer ring holds the bearing assembly together. The axial internal clearance in the bearing is provided in the product table and is designed to permit small axial displacements of the shaft in relation to the housing, e.g. as a result of thermal expansion of the shaft, to be accommodated in the bearing.

NJG design
NJG design bearings comprise the heavy dimension series 23 and are intended for very heavily loaded, slow speed applications. These bearings have two integral flanges on the outer ring and one integral flange on the inner ring and can thus support axial loads acting in one direction and provide axial shaft location in one direction. In contrast to the other full complement bearing designs, NJG design bearings have a self-retaining roller complement. The outer ring with its two integral flanges together with the roller complement can therefore be withdrawn from the inner ring, without having to take any precautions to prevent the rollers from falling out ,This simplifies mounting and dismounting.
