Tapered Roller Bearings FAG 33024

The 33024 tapered roller bearing from FAG Wälzlager, measuring 120 × 180 × 48 mm, offers a high load-carrying capacity for combined radial and axial loads in industrial applications.

The 33024 tapered roller bearing is a single-row roller bearing in a standard design, engineered for demanding applications in mechanical engineering. With a bore of 120 mm, an outer diameter of 180 mm and a width of 48 mm, this component from FAG Wälzlager accommodates radial forces and single-sided axial forces. The angled rollers create a line-contact arrangement on the raceways, which contributes to the high rigidity of the entire bearing assembly.

In which applications is the 33024 tapered roller bearing used?

Designs involving combined radial and axial loads constitute the primary area of application for this series. Typical applications can be found in mechanical engineering and gearbox construction for shaft mountings with single-sided guidance. As the single-row bearing only accommodates axial forces in one direction, in practice it is usually fitted in pairs in an O or X arrangement with a mirror-image mating bearing.

What is the function of the sheet steel cage and tolerance class P0?

The roller bearing features a sheet steel cage which guides the rolling elements and is designed for operating temperatures ranging from -30 to +120 degrees. The design in accordance with tolerance class P0/PN (corresponding to ABEC 1) defines the dimensional and concentricity accuracy for normal installation conditions. A design advantage lies in its disassembly: the outer ring can be fitted separately from the inner ring, together with the set of rollers, which facilitates handling during installation and maintenance.
