Cylindrical Roller Bearings FAG NU2318 -E-XL-TVP2

The FAG NU2318 -E-XL-TVP2 cylindrical roller bearing is a robust idler bearing with a 90 mm bore designed to accommodate high radial loads.

The FAG NU2318 -E-XL-TVP2 cylindrical roller bearing is a single-row radial roller bearing designed for demanding industrial applications. Thanks to the line contact between the cylindrical rollers and the raceways, this design can accommodate high radial loads. This design features a lightweight polyamide cage and standard tolerance P0. The open bearing is designed for operation in oiled or greased bearing housings.

Where is the NU2318 -E-XL-TVP2 cylindrical roller bearing used?

This bearing is primarily used in bearing arrangements where high radial forces act on the shaft and axial displacement must be compensated for. The cylindrical rollers distribute the pressure evenly across the contact surface, ensuring that the structure retains its dimensional stability even under heavy dynamic loads. The open design allows free circulation of the lubricant within the housing. Relevant areas of application include industrial drives and machine units with a shaft diameter of 90 mm.

What are the advantages of the NU design with a polyamide cage?

The NU design features two fixed flanges on the outer ring, whilst the inner ring is flangeless. This allows the inner ring to be removed from either side, which facilitates assembly and easily compensates for operational axial changes in the shaft’s length. The polyamide cage (TVP2) guides the rollers quietly and has a low weight. The version with standard bearing clearance is designed for a temperature range of -30 to +120 degrees and ensures stable running characteristics.
