Self-Aligning Ball B. FAG 2308 -2RS-TVH

The FAG 2308 -2RS-TVH self-aligning ball bearing (40x90x33 mm) compensates for misalignment and protects the rolling elements on both sides from contamination.

The FAG 2308 -2RS-TVH self-aligning ball bearing is a double-row rolling bearing made from standard bearing steel (100Cr6). The hollow-spherical outer ring raceway allows for the compensation of angular misalignment between the shaft and housing. With a bore of 40 mm, an outer diameter of 90 mm and a width of 33 mm, the component primarily accommodates radial loads. Thanks to its integrated seal, this bearing is suitable for operating environments where dirt particles must be kept out.

In which installation situations is the 2308 -2RS-TVH self-aligning ball bearing used?

This self-aligning ball bearing is used in designs where shaft deflection or misalignment between the bearing seats occurs. Typical applications include long shaft runs and bearing arrangements with more flexible housing structures. The double-row ball arrangement distributes radial forces across the raceways. As the bearing automatically compensates for misalignment during operation, it prevents edge loading and ensures smooth running.

What features do the seals and polyamide cage offer in the 2308-2RS-TVH?

The suffix 2RS denotes seals that contact the bearing on both sides, shielding the interior of the bearing from dust and moisture. The polyamide cage (TVH) guides the balls with low friction and ensures that the rotating components have a low weight. The bearing is designed for a temperature range of -30 to +100 degrees and features standard radial clearance as well as tolerance class P0/PN (ABEC 1). Before installation, check whether this temperature range is suitable for your operating environment.
