Schaeffler track rollers now available in premium X-life quality

Schaeffler has extended its premium quality X-life product family with a range of high performance track rollers that is said to offer a higher load carrying capacity and a longer rating life than its predecessors.

The redesigned LR52 and LR53 series of track rollers are the latest additions to Schaeffler’s X-life product family. Claimed to feature an increased dynamic load rating of 15% compared to competitors' products, combined with a speed limit increase, the LR52 and LR53 X-life track rollers are said to be the highest performing track rollers on the market.

With the same external dimensions as their predecessors, the LR52 and LR53 X-life track rollers are direct replacements for existing track rollers, with no modifications required to the customer’s application.

The LR52 and LR53 series incorporate design features that result in an increased dynamic load rating of up to 10% and an increased static load rating of up to 15%. These improvements are also said to increase the bearing rating life.

Both series are offered with DEHP-free HRS seals as standard or with improved steel sealing shields as an option. Customers can also choose between a polyamide cage or a rigid, robust steel cage.
