Cylindrical roller bearings come in various configurations, including single row, double row, and multi-row designs, each offering specific load-carrying capabilities and operational characteristics. Additionally, some cylindrical roller bearings feature a full complement of rollers, while others have a cage or separator to maintain proper roller spacing and alignment.

   - Spherical Roller Bearings: Spherical roller bearings are designed to support heavy radial loads, as well as moderate axial loads, and are capable of accommodating misalignment. They are commonly used in applications where heavy radial loads, shock loads, and misalignment are present, such as in heavy machinery, mining equipment, and industrial applications.
