2305, 2306, 2307, 2308, 2309, 2310 Largest width, most double-row ball bearings, strongest load capacity
2. Tapered bore version (suffix K, with adapter sleeve, convenient for shaft installation)
1205K, 1306K, 2207K, 2308K Tapered bore bearings must be used with H series adapter sleeves. They can be fixed to the shaft without a keyway. Widely used in agricultural machinery and wind turbines.
