Self-Aligning Ball B. FAG 1306 -TVH-C3

The FAG 1306 -TVH-C3 self-aligning ball bearing compensates for misalignment caused by shaft deflection and, with dimensions of 30 × 72 × 19 mm, is suitable for angularly adjustable mountings.

The FAG 1306 -TVH-C3 double-row self-aligning ball bearing is designed for mounting positions where misalignment or elastic shaft deflection occurs. Thanks to the shared hollow-spherical raceway in the outer ring, the rolling bearing adjusts to angular movement. Manufactured from standard roller bearing steel 100Cr6 in tolerance class P0/PN (ABEC 1), this open bearing is suitable for designs with separate lubrication and sealing.

In which applications does the 1306 -TVH-C3 self-aligning ball bearing compensate for angular misalignment?

This self-aligning ball bearing is particularly suitable for bearing arrangements with long shafts or split housings, where misalignment between the inner and outer rings is unavoidable due to operational conditions. The double-row bearing accommodates radial loads and automatically compensates for misalignment. Within the permissible temperature range of -30 to +120 degrees, the open version operates under thermal stresses in industrial applications.

What do the C3 clearance and the polyamide cage mean in practice?

The suffix TVH denotes the polyamide cage, which ensures quiet running and reduces friction between the rolling elements. The increased radial clearance (C3) provides more radial play in the initial state compared with standard clearance. This clearance accommodates thermal expansion during operation or radial compression in tight fits without the bearing becoming stressed.
