Self-Aligning Ball B. FAG 2306 -TVH

The FAG 2306-TVH self-aligning ball bearing (30 × 72 × 27 mm) compensates for misalignment and features two rows of balls guided by a lightweight polyamide cage.

The FAG 2306-TVH self-aligning ball bearing is a double-row rolling bearing with an inner diameter of 30 mm and an outer diameter of 72 mm. Its hollow-spherical outer ring raceway allows both rows of balls to be adjusted in the event of misalignment or shaft deflection. Thanks to the 100Cr6 material and dimensional tolerances to P0/PN (ABEC 1), the bearing is suitable for precision industrial applications. With a width of 27 mm, the bearing accommodates radial and moderate axial loads in both directions.

In which applications does the 2306-TVH self-aligning ball bearing compensate for angular misalignment?

This rolling bearing is used wherever elastic shafts or housing inaccuracies lead to angular misalignment. As the outer ring forms a continuous spherical shell, the rolling elements tilt without additional constraint stresses. Typical applications include bearings prone to deflection or misalignment in general mechanical engineering. In this open design, lubricant is supplied externally, whilst the surrounding housing provides protection against contamination.

What are the distinctive features of the version with a polyamide cage?

The suffix ‘TVH’ denotes a polyamide cage. This material reduces the inertial forces of the rotating rolling elements and promotes quiet operation. The permissible temperature range is between –30 and +120 degrees Celsius. In combination with the standard radial bearing clearance (CN), the unit is suitable for typical operating temperatures and installation conditions. In the open design, the lubricant is selected to suit the specific operating environment.
