Rolling Mill Bearing Chock

Rolling Mill Bearing Chock

A rolling mill bearing chock, also known as a roll chock or mill bearing housing, is a critical structural component in rolling mill work stands that houses and supports the roller neck and rolling bearings. As the core load-bearing part of the rolling mill equipment, bearing chocks transmit rolling force from the rolls to the mill stand frame, while maintaining the precise position and running stability of the rolls during metal rolling processes in hot and cold rolling operations.
BOPENG is specialize in producing durable, precision-engineered cast steel bearing chocks suitable for various types of rolling mills, including hot strip mills, cold rolling mills, and plate mills.

Main Function

The roller bearing chock serves as a robust housing for the roll bearings. It ensures that the roll shafts remain in precise alignment during rolling operations. Key functions include: Load Support: Withstands axial and radial loads from the rolling process. Alignment: Maintains precise positioning of the roll shafts for uniform thickness and surface finish. Vibration Damping: Reduces noise and mechanical stress during high-speed rolling. Lubrication Management: Integrates channels for oil or grease lubrication to minimize wear.

Main Structure of Rolling Mill Bearing Chock

BOPENG provides fully custom rolling mill bearing chocks, supporting all specifications from small to extra-heavy. A standard rolling mill bearing chock consists of the following core parts:
Outer Housing

The main load-bearing structure, usually made of solid cast steel, with a reinforcing rib design to improve the overall rigidity and reduce stress concentration.

Bearing Mounting Bore

The core working part, requiring extremely high dimensional accuracy and surface quality, matches the outer diameter of the rolling bearing to ensure a tight fit and no looseness during operation.

Sealing Structure

BOPENG provide two common sealing solutions:
Oil Seal: Rubber or polyurethane oil seal, suitable for conventional working conditions, low cost, and easy replacement
Labyrinth Seal: Multi-channel zigzag sealing structure, suitable for harsh environments with a large amount of water and oxide scale, provides excellent sealing performance

Fixing System

Bolt fixing holes for conventional installation, or customized embedded structure according to equipment requirements, to meet the needs of different mill stand designs.

Lubrication System

Precisely machined lubricating oil grooves and oil passages to ensure continuous and sufficient lubrication of the bearing, reduce the friction coefficient and operating temperature.

Why Choose BOPENG Cast Steel Rolling Mill Bearing Chock?

As a professional cast steel component manufacturer, BOPENG rolling mill bearing chocks have outstanding advantages that are recognized by global customers:

Higher Strength, Longer Service Life

– Optimized alloy steel material formula, the tensile strength reaches 800-1000MPa and hardness HRC28-32.
