Cylindrical Roller Bearings FAG NU226 -E-XL-TVP2-C3

The nu226-e-xl-tvp2-c3 cylindrical roller bearing from FAG Wälzlager, with an outer diameter of 230 mm, a polyamide cage and C3 radial clearance, provides reliable guidance under high radial loads.

The nu226-e-xl-tvp2-c3 cylindrical roller bearing is a single-row radial roller bearing from FAG Wälzlager designed for demanding industrial applications. As an open bearing with a cylindrical bore, its design is primarily intended to withstand high radial loads. As it does not feature integrated seals, the component is suitable for designs with external housing seals and targeted lubricant supply. With an outer diameter of 230 mm and a width of 40 mm, this bearing meets demanding installation requirements in mechanical and plant engineering.

What is the nu226-e-xl-tvp2-c3 cylindrical roller bearing suitable for?

This cylindrical roller bearing is particularly suitable for bearing arrangements that must withstand high radial forces at moderate to high speeds. Typical applications include industrial bearing arrangements subject to purely radial loads and acting as idler bearings. As the bearing is designed to allow axial movement, it easily compensates for operational thermal expansion of shafts. The open design facilitates integration into existing oil or grease lubrication systems, whilst the permissible temperature range of –30 to +120 °C allows for a wide range of industrial applications.

What are the advantages of a polyamide cage and C3 bearing clearance?

The nu226-e-xl-tvp2-c3 design features a lightweight polyamide cage and a slightly increased radial clearance (C3). The plastic cage reduces the weight of the rotating parts and ensures quiet, vibration-damped operation of the rolling elements. The C3 bearing clearance provides the necessary leeway when temperature differences occur between the shaft and the housing, or when tight fits reduce the radial clearance during operation. This reduces the risk of the rollers seizing up and counteracts premature wear.
