A cylindrical roller bearing is a form of rolling element bearing that supports the radial loads of a rotating shaft using cylindrical rollers rather than balls. Typically, a cage or retainer is used to divide and maintain an even spacing between the cylindrical rollers.

Attributes:
● Have lower friction compared to other types of bearings.
● Load is distributed over a larger area compared to a ball bearing. 

Application:
The cylindrical roller bearings are used in high load carrying capacity.
