Tapered Roller Bearings FAG 33205

The FAG 33205 tapered roller bearing, measuring 25 × 52 × 22 mm, is designed to withstand high radial and single-direction axial loads in mechanical engineering.

The 33205 tapered roller bearing is a single-row roller bearing from FAG in a standard metric design. The complete bearing consists of an inner ring with a guided roller cage and the corresponding outer ring. Thanks to the tapered roller geometry, this component simultaneously transmits radial loads and axial forces from a single direction. Typical applications include bearing arrangements with combined loads, where precise shaft guidance is required.

What is the 33205 tapered roller bearing suitable for?

Designers primarily use this rolling bearing where combined loads occur and high transverse rigidity is required. As single-row tapered roller bearings can only accommodate axial forces in one direction, designers usually mount the bearings in pairs in an X or O configuration opposite a second bearing. This allows the desired operating or preload to be set in the bearing seat. The permissible temperature range extends from –30 to +120 degrees Celsius.

What role does the integrated sheet steel cage play?

The cage, made of pressed sheet steel, guides the tapered rollers evenly along the inner ring raceway. This design serves to keep the rolling elements at a distance from one another and to prevent direct contact between the rollers. The component is manufactured to tolerance class P0 or ABEC 1, which corresponds to the standard tolerance for industrial applications. As the inner and outer rings can be fitted separately, this facilitates installation in housings and onto shafts.
