Articulating Bearing Isolators on a Paper Roll Solve Angular Misalignment

The articulating bearing isolators protect the lubricant in this wet application and withstand the misalignment.


Articulating bearing isolators were recently installed on paper rolls in a paper mill on the east coast. Angular misalignment of two-degrees was present. These articulating bearing isolators protect the lubricant in this wet application and withstand the misalignment.

Because of this success, 20 more of these seals are being ordered to equip all the paper rolls at the mill.
