If you maintain concrete mixer gearboxes or heavy-duty reducers, you’ve probably heard of the PLC 110-190 Spherical roller bearing for mixer reducer top 80. I’ve watched this series quietly win trust on shop floors—partly because it just survives abuse. In fact, the “Top 80” mixer reducer niche is tough: shock loads, misalignment, borderline lubrication. This unit leans into that reality rather than pretending conditions are textbook.
Mixer fleets are pushing longer service intervals and standardizing on C3/C4 clearances with robust EP2 greases. There’s also a gradual shift to higher-purity steels and better surface finishes; surprisingly, that alone can add months of uptime. To be honest, buyers are more pragmatic now—reliability and lead time beat fancy packaging.
| Model | PLC 110-190 Spherical roller bearing for mixer reducer top 80 |
| Type / Rows | Spherical roller, double-row, self-aligning |
| Bore × OD × Width | ≈110 × 190 × 49 mm (real-world use may vary by housing) |
| Clearance | C3 standard; C4 on request |
| Cage | Machined brass (typical), steel option |
| Dynamic/Static rating | Cr ≈ 315 kN; C0r ≈ 300 kN (per ISO 281 calc) |
| Limiting speed (grease) | ≈1,800 rpm (reducers typically run far lower) |
| Recommended grease | NLGI 2 lithium complex EP2, base oil 220 cSt for shock loads |
| Operating temp | -20 to 120 °C (short peaks to 140 °C) |
Materials: vacuum-degassed bearing steel (≈100Cr6). Rings are through-hardened; rollers with gradient-hardened profiles for stress distribution.
Methods: CNC turning, multi-stage grinding, logarithmic roller profiling, superfinishing (Ra ≈ 0.05–0.08 μm). Cage pockets deburred by hand—yes, it still matters.
Standards: ISO 492 (P6 by default), ISO 281 life calculations, failure modes per ISO 15243.
Testing: vibration V2 grade, dimensional audit, ferrography on grease run-in, 100% visual/traceability. Typical runout ≤ 5 μm; roundness ≤ 1.5 μm. L10h at 300 rpm and 50 kN radial load: ≈40,000 h (application-dependent, obviously).
A maintenance lead told me their last batch of PLC 110-190 Spherical roller bearing for mixer reducer top 80 cut Saturday tear-downs in half. Small sample, sure—but it tracks with what I hear elsewhere.
| Feature | Hebei Factory (this model) | Generic Market | Premium Import |
|---|---|---|---|
| Steel purity | High, low inclusion | Variable | Very high |
| Heat treatment control | Tight, documented | Basic | Excellent |
| Lead time | Short (stock + build-to-order) | Uncertain | Moderate |
| Price | Competitive | Low | High |
A regional mixer fleet swapped to PLC 110-190 Spherical roller bearing for mixer reducer top 80 after three mid-season failures. Same grease, better alignment practice, and a mild preload adjustment. Six months later: zero bearing-related stoppages; oil temp dropped ≈6–8 °C. Not a lab, but compelling.
Manufactured in: No. 3, Area B, Bearing Industry Mass Entrepreneurship Park, Beihuan Road, Linxi County, Xingtai City, Hebei Province. ISO 9001:2015 in place; PPAP packs and material mill certs available on request.
