Tapered Roller Bearings FAG 32206

The FAG 32206 tapered roller bearing, with dimensions of 30 × 62 × 21.25 mm and a sheet steel cage, offers a robust solution for combined radial and axial forces.

The 32206 tapered roller bearing is a single-row roller bearing in standard design, manufactured to standard tolerance P0/PN or ABEC 1. Thanks to the angled, truncated conical rollers, this design can simultaneously accommodate high radial and axial forces from a single direction. As a complete tapered roller bearing, the FAG version consists of the inner ring with a roller cage and the matching outer ring. The design is rated for a temperature range of –30 to +120 degrees.

In which assemblies is the 32206 tapered roller bearing used?

Shaft bearings subjected to combined loads constitute the primary area of application for the 32206 tapered roller bearing. Typical applications include gearbox construction, industrial drives and wheel and axle bearings. As a single tapered roller bearing, by design, can only accommodate axial forces in one direction, in practice it is usually fitted in pairs in an X or O arrangement with a mirror-image mating bearing. This arrangement precisely supports axial forces on both sides.

What is important to bear in mind when fitting a bearing with a sheet steel cage?

The bearing is not self-retaining, which means that the inner ring and outer ring can be fitted separately. This facilitates pressing onto the 30 mm diameter shaft and fitting into the housing with an outer diameter of 62 mm. The sheet steel cage guides the rolling elements evenly, even under demanding operating conditions. The required bearing clearance or preload is adjusted during assembly via the counter bearing to suit the specific operating conditions.
