Barrel Roller Bearings FAG 20308 -TVP

The FAG 20308-TVP barrel roller bearing provides angular contact support for shafts with a diameter of 40 mm, an outer diameter of 90 mm and a width of 23 mm.

The FAG 20308 -TVP barrel roller bearing is a single-row rolling bearing with barrel-shaped rollers and a hollow spherical outer ring raceway. This design automatically compensates for misalignment or shaft deflection during operation. The model has main dimensions of 40x90x23 mm and operates with standard radial clearance. Users benefit from a robust component for applications where radial forces predominate and angular misalignment occurs between the shaft and housing.

What is the 20308-TVP spherical roller bearing suitable for?

Design engineers turn to this bearing when shock loads or deflection would overload rigidly guided bearings. Typical applications are found in general mechanical and plant engineering for bearing arrangements subject to high radial forces and potential angular misalignment. As this is an open bearing without an integrated seal, lubricant can be applied precisely from the outside. A suitable housing seal is required for operation to prevent the ingress of dirt and moisture.

What are the distinctive features of the -TVP version?

The suffix ‘TVP’ denotes a polyamide cage that guides the roller elements. This material ensures low inertia, high elasticity and smooth running of the rollers. The permissible temperature range is from –30 to +120 degrees Celsius. Manufactured to tolerance class P0/PN (corresponding to ABEC 1), the bearing complies with common standards in mechanical engineering and fits into standardised bearing seats.
