Tapered Roller Bearings FAG 32212

The FAG 32212 tapered roller bearing is designed to accommodate combined radial and single-direction axial loads in mechanical engineering applications, with main dimensions of 60 × 110 × 29.75 mm.

The FAG 32212 tapered roller bearing is designed as a single-row bearing for combined loads. Thanks to its tapered rollers and raceways, this bearing absorbs radial forces whilst simultaneously dissipating unidirectional axial forces. You receive a complete tapered roller bearing in the standard version with standard tolerance in accordance with tolerance class P0/PN or ABEC 1. The open bearing without an integrated seal allows for customised use in lubricated gearboxes or housings.

In which applications is the 32212 tapered roller bearing used?

This single-row tapered roller bearing is suitable for applications where high radial forces are combined with axial forces. Typical applications can be found in general mechanical engineering, in gearboxes and shaft mountings. As a single tapered roller bearing can, by design, only absorb axial forces in one direction, designers usually fit the bearing in pairs with a second, oppositely mounted roller bearing in an X or O arrangement. In this way, they guide shafts without play and axially in both directions.

What is the function of the sheet steel cage in the 32212 tapered roller bearing?

The integrated sheet steel cage keeps the conical rolling elements spaced apart and prevents direct contact between the rollers. This cage design offers a low weight and mechanical stability at varying speeds. For its intended application, the component covers a permissible temperature range of -30 to +120 degrees. Furthermore, the bearing is designed to be disassembled: you fit the outer ring separately from the pre-assembled inner ring, complete with the set of rollers, which facilitates the fit assembly.
