Self-Aligning Ball B. FAG 1313 -TVH

The 1313-TVH self-aligning ball bearing, measuring 65 × 140 × 33 mm, compensates for misalignment and houses two rows of balls in a flexible polyamide cage.

The 1313-TVH self-aligning ball bearing from FAG is a double-row rolling bearing made from standard bearing steel 100Cr6 with a cylindrical bore. Thanks to the common spherical raceway in the outer ring, the inner ring, cage and rows of balls can tilt without impairing function. This self-aligning ball bearing is primarily used where shaft deflection or misalignment between bearing seats occurs. With a bore of 65 mm, an outer diameter of 140 mm and a width of 33 mm, this component provides stable guidance for rotating shafts.

In which applications does the 1313-TVH self-aligning ball bearing compensate for angular misalignment?

Designs with long shafts tend to experience slight deflection under load, which would place a strain on rigid bearings. The 1313 -TVH self-aligning ball bearing compensates for such static and dynamic angular misalignments directly within the bearing. Typical applications are found in general mechanical engineering, in shaft trains or designs with separate housing components. As this is an open design, you can select the lubricant yourself depending on the application and integrate the bearing into housings with external seals.

What are the key features of the polyamide cage in the 1313 -TVH bearing?

The suffix ‘TVH’ denotes a solid polyamide cage that guides the two rows of balls with low friction. The material absorbs shocks and is suitable for an operating temperature range of –30 to +120 degrees Celsius. When designing the bearing, the standard radial clearance must be taken into account, which ensures smooth running with typical fits. With tolerance class P0/PN or ABEC 1, the component meets the requirements of standard industrial applications.
