RKS.21.0841 Slewing Bearings

RKS.21.0841 is a light series single row four point contact ball slewing bearing with an external gear, manufactured to the SKF RKS.21 standard. With a 841 mm mean raceway diameter, 734 mm bore, 950 mm outside diameter (gear tip) and 56 mm height, it weighs 68 kg and carries light-to-medium combined axial, radial and tilting moment loads. The gear is normalized tooth with module 8 and 117 teeth — the start of the m8 large-module group in the RKS.21 family.

Product Advantages — Why Choose the RKS.210841 Turntable Bearing?

① m8 Large-Module Gear — 31% Higher Tooth Force

The m8 × 117-tooth external gear delivers permissible tooth forces of 21 kN (normal) and 72 kN (max). That's 31% stronger than the m6 group bearings like the 0641/0741 series. If your application involves heavier gear loads, this is the right step up.

② Four-Point Contact Ball Design

The 20 mm ball four-point contact design handles combined axial, radial, and tilting moment loads simultaneously. It's a cost-effective, high-versatility choice for light-to-medium combined load scenarios.

③ Inner-Ring Flange + Light Series Structure

The flange-type inner ring makes mounting simpler and more reliable. This L-shape range external gear slewing ring is especially popular in metallurgical and OEM swing rotation equipment.

④ Wide Temperature Seal Performance

The NBR integral seal works continuously from −40°C to +110°C. Paired with NLGI 2 lithium EP grease and four relubrication fittings, maintenance is straightforward even in demanding environments.

⑤ Interchange & Cross-Reference Clarity

The RKS.21.0841 Slewing Bearings equivalent and cross-reference includes INA VLA200844-N and Schaeffler 88.0944.00. However, the medium series RKS.061.20.0844 is not a direct replacement — its bore is 772 mm vs. 734 mm. Always verify bolt circle dimensions before substitution.

Typical Application Areas

The 21.0841 slewing bearing is trusted across multiple industries:

· Metallurgy / Blast Furnace Equipment — A unique specialty application. The flange 950×734×56mm design is widely used in blast furnace gas cover systems, an application few competitors address.

· Filling & Packaging Machines — The light series turntable bearing handles smooth, low-speed rotation in filling machine turntables.

· Construction Excavators — The light series slewing ring provides reliable articulation under combined loads.

· Bending Robots & Robotic Arms — Precision running accuracy (radial ≤ 0.2 mm) supports consistent robotic motion.

· OEM Swing & Rotation Mechanisms — Custom OEM configurations available; supports single-unit to bulk orders.
