Why Choose Heng Guan's 161.14.0644 Crossed Roller Slewing Ring?
Precision Engineering for Maximum Stiffness
The crossed roller design arranges 14 mm cylindrical rollers perpendicular to each other in a single raceway. This configuration simultaneously supports axial loads (919 kN static capacity), radial forces, and tilting moments with minimal play. You'll experience superior rotational accuracy—radial runout ≤ 0.2 mm and axial runout ≤ 0.3 mm—critical for TBM cutterhead positioning and welding positioner operations.
Heavy-Duty External Gearing
The crossed cylindrical roller slewing ring m6 z122 features a module 6 external gear with 122 teeth and a 732 mm pitch circle. With permissible tooth forces rated at 16 kN continuous and 54 kN peak (normalized gear, 3 million cycles), you can confidently transmit drive torque in excavator swing drives and conveyor turntable systems. The pressure angle of 20° and addendum modification of −0.6 mm optimize tooth root strength.
Advanced Material & Heat Treatment
We manufacture rings from C45E, 42CrMo4, or 50Mn structural steel, then apply induction hardening to achieve HRC 55-62 surface hardness. The 100Cr6 rollers are through-hardened for exceptional wear resistance. This combination delivers long service life even under shock loading in iron and steel industry applications.
Sealed & Lubricated for Harsh Environments
Integral NBR seals provide protection from −40 to +110 °C, keeping contaminants out while retaining NLGI 2 lithium EP grease. Four M10×1 grease fittings allow scheduled re-lubrication without disassembly. For shield machine operations or material handling equipment exposed to dust, this sealing system extends maintenance intervals significantly.
Factory-Direct Availability
Unlike imported brands with long lead times, we maintain inventory of the 574×742.8×56 slewing bearing and similar medium-size crossed roller models. You'll benefit from fast delivery, competitive pricing, and flexible MOQ. Our engineers provide technical consultation, CAD drawings, and installation guidance to ensure seamless integration.
