4-row CRB Mounting – Operator Side
Thrust Bearing
- absorbs external thrust
- stabilizes axial roll position
Most popular anti-friction BU Roll bearing…high capacity / high precision capability
Note: Drive side chock may use locator bearing, such as deep groove ball bearing

CRB - BUR Bearing Installation
• Outer race and roller assemblies are
loaded into the chock.
• Inner rings are mounted independent of
outer ring/ roller sets.
• Inner rings are mounted with an
interference fit on the roll neck.
• Inner rings can be supplied to finished
“OD” size or can be finish ground on the
roll neck.
Back-up Roll
WORLDWIDE LEADER IN BEARINGS AND STEEL
Rolling Mill Industry Training Configurations & Designs
• Minimizes eccentricity of the
Roll Neck to the Roll Body
• Minimizes Inner Race Wall
Section Variation Contribution to
Eccentricity
• Provides Tighter Control of
Bearing Radial Internal
Clearance ( R.I.C. )
• Provides More Consistent
Inner Race OD Size Control ( on
each neck )
Benefits of Finish Grinding Inner Race OD
After Mounting on the Roll Neck

Installing the Chock Assembly:
• Suggested Mounting Methods:
• Chocking/ Dechocking Machine
• Piloting Sleeve
• Overhead Crane
- Care must be taken when using
a crane to align the chock prior to
installation.
• Regardless of mounting method, care
must be taken not to damage the inner
races during assembly.

Key Points for CRB Back-Up Roll Bearings:
• Inner Races Stay with Rolls
• Outer Assembly Stay with Chocks
• Chock Assemblies Interchangeable from
Roll to Roll
• Inner Race OD’s Can be “Skin Ground”
to Extend Useful Life in the Mill
(however RIC will be affected)

q Commonly used for work roll bearing position
q TQO & SRNB’s
q Applicable to BUR bearings in medium and slow speed mills
(<2,500 FPM/250 RPM)
q Venting required
q Grease fill recommendation:
q 30 to 50% of Total Bearing Free Volume
q Suggested grease properties:
q Base Oil Viscosity @ 40C: 320-460 cSt
q Additives: Corrosion and Oxidation Inhibitors, EP Additives
q Petroleum Or Synthetic Oil
Lubrication
Grease
WORLDWIDE LEADER IN BEARINGS AND STEEL

q Atomized at Mist Generator and conveyed to nozzles
q Ideal mist velocity: 12-15 ft/s
q Piping sized to achieve desired velocity
q Gravity feed required from mist generator
q Internal Chock Pressure ≈≈≈≈ 0.75 psi
q Venting required for proper distribution of oil
q Oil Viscosity should not exceed 460cSt
q Air and Oil are typically pre-heated
q10% of oil mist may remain airborne (Stray Mist)
