Lubrication Reservoir

Stores oil or grease used to lubricate the axle journal, reducing friction and wear.

Friction Reduction

Contains antifriction bearings (such as tapered roller bearings) to minimize running resistance and improve energy efficiency.

Alignment & Housing

Encloses and protects the bearing assembly, ensuring proper alignment with the wheelset and the bogie.

Material of Locomotive Axle

Premium Cast Steel Housing

Q: What bearing is used in railway axle boxes?

A: Cylindrical roller bearings are used mainly in Locomotives (Diesel or Electric) for Wagons wheel application. These bearings are used with axle box housing and end fittings. RANGE: Axle Boxes with Cylindrical Roller Bearing for Wagons ( 4 Inch Bore to 12.60 inch OD)

Q: What is the function of the axle bearing?

A: The importance of Axel Bearings & Wheel Bearings The axle bearings allow the wheels to turn freely while bearing the weight of the car and to maintain proper alignment while going through all the stresses of cornering. When they get worn, they commonly will make a harsh, growly noise while moving.
