Fafnir Torrington RABR 1 Bearing Cartridge 1" Bore 62mm OD 29mm ID 20mm

Fafnir Torrington RABR 1 Bearing Cartridge 1" Bore 62mm OD 29mm ID 20mm

The Fafnir RABR 1 is a rubber-housed bearing cartridge insert with a 1-inch bore, designed for use in pillow block and take-up housings where vibration dampening or a secure press fit into a rubber-cushioned housing is required. The RABR series features a steel inner ring and an outer assembly with a rubber element that allows the cartridge to seat firmly in its housing, providing both positive location and a degree of shock absorption. This unit comes from Torrington-Fafnir, a historically significant bearing manufacturer whose product lines are now carried forward under the Timken brand.

Applications

RABR-series bearing cartridges are used in a wide range of industrial machinery where a 1-inch shaft must be supported in a pillow block, flange, or take-up unit. Common applications include conveyors, agricultural equipment, packaging machinery, fans, and general power-transmission setups where the rubber-cushioned housing design helps absorb vibration and misalignment. Fafnir bearings were a staple of American industrial manufacturing from the mid-20th century onward, and the RABR series was widely specified in OEM machinery and MRO replacement contexts. Torrington merged with Fafnir under the Ingersoll-Rand umbrella before both lines were ultimately acquired by Timken, so RABR bearings may also be sourced today under the Timken brand. This particular unit is suitable for direct replacement in any application calling out the Fafnir or Torrington RABR 1.
