Cylindrical Roller Bearings FAG N315 -E-XL-TVP2-C3

The FAG N315 -E-XL-TVP2-C3 cylindrical roller bearing, as a free end bearing with dimensions of 75 × 160 × 37 mm, accommodates high radial forces with a slightly increased bearing clearance.

The N315 -E-XL-TVP2-C3 cylindrical roller bearing is a single-row rolling bearing manufactured by FAG for industrial applications subject primarily to radial forces. With main dimensions of 75 mm bore, 160 mm outer diameter and 37 mm width, the inner ring guides the roller set between two fixed flanges. The open bearing has no integrated seal and can be connected directly to an external lubrication system for lubrication.

In which installation scenarios does the N315 -E-XL-TVP2-C3 function as a floating bearing?

This radial roller bearing is specifically designed for bearing arrangements where operational changes in shaft length need to be accommodated. The N design features a flangeless outer ring that can be pulled off at both ends and allows axial displacement within the bearing without inducing stress. Users primarily employ this design in radially loaded shaft mountings where thermal expansion of the shaft must be accommodated.

What is the function of the polyamide cage and C3 bearing clearance in the bearing assembly?

The TVP2 version features a polyamide cage, which ensures quiet running and low friction. In combination with the slightly increased radial clearance (C3), this bearing offers additional leeway for thermal expansion or tight fits on the shaft and housing. For applications within an operating temperature range of –30 to +120 degrees Celsius, the ‘Normal’ tolerance class (P0/PN or ABEC 1) meets standard requirements for industrial use.
