🔹 Features of Cylindrical Roller Bearings
Unlike ball bearings, cylindrical roller bearings use cylindrical rolling elements that provide a larger contact surface, allowing them to handle higher radial loads and reduce wear.
Key features include:
- 
High radial load capacity 
- 
Low heat generation and friction 
- 
High stiffness and precision 
- 
Easy assembly and disassembly 
- 
Suitable for high-speed applications
