The design of a cylindrical roller bearing allows it to accommodate high radial loads, making it suitable for applications such as machine tool spindles, gearboxes, electric motors, and industrial equipment. The cylindrical shape of the rollers enables them to distribute the load over a larger surface area, reducing stress and preventing premature wear.

   - Spherical Roller Bearings: Spherical roller bearings are commonly used in applications where misalignment compensation, high load capacity, and the ability to handle dynamic or oscillating loads are required, such as in heavy industrial machinery, mining equipment, and vibratory screens.
