Tapered Roller Bearings FAG 32217

The FAG 32217 single-row tapered roller bearing accommodates combined radial and single-direction axial loads, with dimensions of 85 × 150 × 38.5 mm.

The 32217 tapered roller bearing is a complete, single-row roller bearing in a standard design. The bearing unit consists of the inner ring, including the roller cage, and the matching outer ring. Thanks to the conical line contact of the rolling elements, the bearing can withstand high forces during operation. The integrated sheet steel cage ensures that the rollers are evenly distributed across the raceways. The design covers a temperature range from –30 to +120 degrees.

What loads can the 32217 tapered roller bearing withstand?

The design of the 32217 tapered roller bearing is intended for the simultaneous transmission of radial forces and single-sided axial forces. Due to the angular orientation of the raceways, a single bearing unit supports axial forces in only one direction. For this reason, in practice, they are often fitted in pairs in an O or X configuration with a mating bearing. This allows shafts to be supported in both axial directions and adjusted to suit the application.

What are the features of the cage and bearing design?

The sheet steel cage maintains the rollers at a specified distance and ensures smooth rolling element rotation at varying speeds. As a separable rolling bearing, the design allows for separate assembly: The outer ring and the assembly comprising the inner ring and roller ring can be mounted independently of one another onto the shaft and housing. Manufacture to tolerance class P0 or ABEC 1 complies with the industrial standard for dimensionally accurate fits.
