Tapered Roller Bearings FAG 33117

The FAG 33117 single-row tapered roller bearing, with dimensions of 85 × 140 × 41 mm, can accommodate high combined radial and axial loads.

The FAG 33117 tapered roller bearing is an open, single-row rolling bearing designed for mechanical applications involving combined loads. With a bore of 85 mm, an outside diameter of 140 mm and a width of 41 mm, this design withstands high radial forces as well as axial forces from one direction. The truncated conical rollers run on inclined raceways, ensuring contact along a wide line. This complete bearing serves as a dimensionally stable guiding element in shaft guides.

In which configurations is the 33117 tapered roller bearing fitted?

Tapered roller bearings are frequently used in mechanical drives and gearboxes where shafts require both radial support and axial guidance. As single-row tapered roller bearings, by their design, can only support axial forces in one direction, they are usually mounted in pairs in an X or O arrangement with a second tapered roller bearing. The FAG 33117 enables rigid shaft mountings designed for alternating or continuous loads.

What are the distinctive features of the version with a sheet steel cage and tolerance class P0?

The integrated sheet steel cage guides the tapered rollers evenly and maintains a constant distance between the rolling elements, which promotes smooth running. The bearing is designed for a temperature range of -30 to +120 degrees and complies with the standard tolerance class P0 (ABEC 1), making it suitable for common industrial applications. As the inner ring with the roller set and the outer ring can be fitted separately, installation in the housing and onto the shaft is simplified.
