Roller Bearing Conversion

The roller bearing conversion, which is usually installed in conjunction with the helical gear conversion, puts all of the rolling elements (gear shafts, pinion shaft and both ends of the tie rods) in double row spherical bearings.  The gear and pinion shaft bearings are located in heavy duty sealed pillow block housings, while the tie rod bearings are enclosed in a sealed cavity built into the end of the cast alloy rods.
