ABSTRACT:
A bearing assembly having an improved lubrication arrangement includes an inner ring and an outer ring assembly defining a bearing chamber within which bearing elements are disposed. The inner ring, outer ring assembly and bearing elements comprise a bearing group. A housing is disposed about and positionally secures the bearing group. A first lubrication path is defined by the outer ring assembly to conduct lubricant to the bearing chamber. A second lubrication path is defined by the housing to conduct lubricant to the first lubrication path. Preferably, a threaded fitting extends through the second lubrication path and is threadably secured to the first lubrication path so that lubricant may be conducted directly into the first lubrication path without leakage between the bearing group and the housing.
