Cylindrical roller bearings
These types of bearings are commonly used in rotary applications.
Cylindrical roller bearings can support significant radial loads (even very significant ones).
Advantages: Long bearing life, support significant radial loads, robust
Disadvantages: Cannot tolerate high axial loads.
Cylindrical roller bearings can take some axial load in one direction when the inner or outer rings have two ribs.
Double-row cylindrical roller bearings have high radial rigidity and are used primarily for precision machine tools.

The cylindrical roller bearings have a high radial load capacity and are suitable for high speeds. They are in linear contact with the raceways. They are designed to be reliable and a good fit for the environment.
The bearing is highly versatile and can be used for many applications. There are several different types of cylindrical roller bearings on the market.
They vary according to the number of rows of rollers (usually one, two, or four) and if there’s a cage or not. No cage allows for the bearing to have more rows, which helps support even heavier radial loads.
