29426EM Bearing Dimensions
| Item | Specification |
|---|---|

| Bearing type | Spherical roller thrust bearing |
| Bore diameter d | 130 mm |
| Outside diameter D | 270 mm |
| Overall height H | 85 mm |
The principal dimensions correspond to the 29426 size. Include the EM suffix as marked on your bearing or drawing; suffix definitions and internal details should be confirmed for the actual supplier and configuration.
Axial Load Direction and Bearing Arrangement
A spherical roller thrust bearing carries axial load in one direction. It can also carry radial load under appropriate axial loading, but it is not a general substitute for a radial spherical roller bearing. The surrounding arrangement must provide the required support and axial location.
For a vertical shaft or another thrust-bearing position, review the load direction, minimum axial load, lubrication and alignment together. A light-load or intermittent-duty application needs its own assessment; the bearing size alone does not establish a safe operating limit.
29426 Versus 29326: Same Bore, Different Envelope
The 29426 size is 130 × 270 × 85 mm. The existing 29326E bearing is 130 × 225 × 58 mm. Although both have a 130 mm bore, their outside diameters and overall heights differ substantially. Check the housing space, shaft shoulder and axial stack before considering a change of series.
What to Confirm Before Ordering
- Full designation, including EM and any additional markings.
- Shaft and housing washer seating dimensions and available axial space.
- Axial load, any radial load, operating speed and lubrication method.
- Quantity, inspection documents and delivery destination.
The technical illustration shows the bearing type, not the exact internal dimensions of the offered product. Request the appropriate drawing and ratings when the arrangement requires engineering approval.
29426EM Procurement Questions
Is the 85 mm dimension an individual washer width?
No. It is the overall bearing height H. Do not use it as the width of either washer when checking the installation drawing.
Can the same bearing carry thrust in both directions?
This bearing type carries axial load in one direction. An arrangement requiring reverse thrust must be assessed with the other locating components.
What does EM guarantee about the cage or performance?
A suffix should be checked against the manufacturer’s designation system and the offered drawing. This page does not assign a universal cage material, speed rating or load rating to EM.
