Self-Aligning Ball B. FAG 1312 -TVH

The 1312-TVH self-aligning ball bearing with a 60 mm bore flexibly compensates for misalignment and features two rows of balls in a lightweight polyamide cage.

The 1312 -TVH self-aligning ball bearing from FAG combines a 60 mm cylindrical bore with an outer diameter of 130 mm and a width of 31 mm. As a double-row rolling bearing made from standard bearing steel (100Cr6), this design features a common hollow-ball raceway in the outer ring. This enables the bearing to automatically compensate for misalignment between the shaft and the housing. This open-type bearing operates with standard radial clearance and is suitable for operating temperatures ranging from -30 to +120 degrees.

What is the 1312-TVH self-aligning ball bearing suitable for?

This double-row self-aligning ball bearing is primarily used in bearing arrangements where misalignment between the bearing seats or elastic deflection of the rotating shaft occurs. Due to the hollow spherical shape of the outer raceway, the ball set pivots freely within the bearing without causing any additional edge pressure. In this open design, the lubricant is supplied directly via the surrounding machine housing using grease or lubricating oil.

What characteristics does the TVH polyamide cage offer in operation?

The polyamide cage with the suffix TVH guides the two rows of balls with low friction and is characterised by its low weight. The bearing complies with tolerance class P0 or ABEC 1 and is designed for a temperature range of -30 to +120 degrees. As no seals are integrated, the housing design ensures protection against foreign particles and the supply of the appropriate lubricant.
