Cylindrical Roller Bearings FAG NU2205 -E-XL-TVP2-C3

The FAG NU2205 -E-XL-TVP2-C3 cylindrical roller bearing (25x52x18 mm), as an open idler bearing, accommodates high radial loads with increased bearing clearance.

The FAG NU2205 -E-XL-TVP2-C3 cylindrical roller bearing is a single-row roller bearing designed for industrial applications involving high radial forces. Due to the line contact between the rolling elements, this design can transmit greater radial loads than a deep-groove ball bearing of the same dimensions. The inner ring can be removed from both sides, which facilitates the separate assembly of the inner and outer rings. As a pure support bearing, this design compensates for axial length changes in the shaft directly within the bearing.

What is the NU2205 -E-XL-TVP2-C3 cylindrical roller bearing suitable for?

This cylindrical roller bearing is primarily used in bearing arrangements where the shaft is subject to thermal linear expansion and high radial loads. Typical applications include industrial shaft bearings where the design requires a defined free-end bearing function without axial load support.

As the inner ring has no flanges, the shaft can slide axially within the bearing. This prevents undesirable stresses in the bearing seat. At the same time, the cylindrical row of rollers absorbs high transverse forces.

What do ‘polyamide cage’ and ‘C3 clearance’ mean in relation to this bearing?

The designation TVP2 stands for a polyamide cage, which, due to its low weight, reduces inertial forces and promotes smooth rolling of the rollers. The permissible temperature range is between –30 and +120 degrees Celsius.

The designation C3 indicates a slightly increased radial clearance. This reserve is useful when tight fits cause the rings to expand or when temperature differences between the shaft and housing reduce the bearing clearance during operation. As an open rolling bearing, this design requires a lubricant and an external housing seal.
