Tapered Roller Bearings FAG 32334

The FAG 32334 tapered roller bearing, with main dimensions of 170 × 360 × 127 mm, can accommodate high radial and axial loads in one direction simultaneously.

The FAG 32334 tapered roller bearing is designed as a complete, single-row rolling bearing. With a bore of 170 mm, an outside diameter of 360 mm and a width of 127 mm, this bearing is one of the larger components used in mechanical engineering. The geometric arrangement of the tapered rollers enables the bearing to accommodate combined forces whilst maintaining high rigidity. A robust sheet-steel cage guides the rolling elements evenly along the raceways.

What loads can the 32334 tapered roller bearing withstand?

This single-row tapered roller bearing is suitable for bearing arrangements subject to high radial forces and single-sided axial loads. Typical applications include heavily loaded gearbox stages and drive shafts with combined power transmission. As single-row tapered roller bearings, by design, can only accommodate axial forces in one direction, they are usually fitted in a mirror-image configuration opposite a second bearing. The open design allows for integration into on-site lubrication systems.

What function does the sheet steel cage perform during operation?

The integrated sheet steel cage maintains a defined spacing between the tapered rollers and prevents direct contact between adjacent rolling elements. This design offers good mechanical strength combined with low weight and is suitable for operating temperatures ranging from –30 to +120 degrees. The bearing is manufactured to the standard tolerance class P0 or ABEC 1. The outer ring can be fitted separately from the inner ring with the roller set, which facilitates handling in the case of large bearings.
