Cylindrical Roller Bearings FAG N224 -E-XL-TVP2

The FAG N224 -E-XL-TVP2 cylindrical roller bearing, measuring 120 × 215 × 40 mm, is a single-row idler bearing designed to accommodate high radial loads in mechanical engineering applications.

The N224 -E-XL-TVP2 cylindrical roller bearing is a single-row roller bearing with a bore diameter of 120 mm, an outer diameter of 215 mm and a width of 40 mm. This open roller bearing is manufactured by FAG and features a lightweight polyamide cage and standard radial clearance. Thanks to the line contact between the cylindrical rollers and the raceways, the design can withstand considerable radial loads. The permissible temperature range is from -30 to +120 degrees.

Why does the N224 -E-XL-TVP2 cylindrical roller bearing function purely as a non-locating bearing?

This cylindrical roller bearing is primarily used in industrial bearing arrangements subject to high radial forces and axial shaft displacement. As it is of the N design, the inner ring guides the rollers between two fixed flanges, whilst the outer ring is flangeless. This design functions as a pure idler bearing. The component compensates for axial changes in shaft length caused by thermal expansion during operation directly within the bearing, without any forced alignment.

What are the functions of the N design and the polyamide cage?

The outer ring, which can be removed from both sides and has no flanges, facilitates the assembly and disassembly of both bearing rings. Designers utilise this advantage to fit the inner and outer rings separately onto the shaft and housing. The integrated polyamide cage guides the cylindrical rolling elements with low noise and vibration. The component complies with tolerance class P0/PN or ABEC 1. As the bearing is of open design, your associated assembly requires an external seal and a suitable lubrication supply.
