Self-Aligning Ball B. FAG 1200 -TVH-C3

The FAG 1200 -TVH-C3 self-aligning ball bearing (10x30x9 mm) compensates for misalignment with its double-row design and offers thermal reserves thanks to its C3 clearance.

The FAG 1200 -TVH-C3 self-aligning ball bearing is a double-row rolling bearing made from standard 100Cr6 bearing steel with a cylindrical bore. With an inside diameter of 10 mm, an outside diameter of 30 mm and a width of 9 mm, this design is suitable for compact installation spaces. The continuous spherical hollow ball raceway in the outer ring allows the two rows of balls to be freely adjusted. As a result, the bearing automatically compensates for operational shaft deflection and misalignment between the inner and outer rings.

When is the 1200 -TVH-C3 self-aligning ball bearing recommended for use?

Designs featuring long or flexible shafts benefit from this self-aligning bearing, as static misalignments of the bearing housings and dynamic shaft deflections are compensated for without any significant increase in friction. Typical applications include bearing arrangements with separate housings or alignment errors resulting from installation. As an open component without integrated sealing washers, it requires external lubrication as well as protective measures against contamination provided by the customer. The permissible temperature range is from –30 to +120 degrees Celsius.

What functions do the polyamide cage and C3 bearing clearance fulfil?

The suffix TVH denotes the integrated polyamide cage, which ensures smooth, quiet running and reduces the mass of the rolling element set. The slightly increased radial clearance (C3) provides additional leeway should temperature differences arise between the inner and outer rings, or should tight fits result in a slight reduction of the radial clearance. The component is manufactured to tolerance class P0 or ABEC 1 and features a standard inner ring design for direct shaft mounting.
