Tapered Roller Bearings FAG 33010

The FAG 33010 single-row tapered roller bearing, with dimensions of 50 × 80 × 24 mm, can accommodate high radial loads as well as axial loads on one side.

The FAG 33010 tapered roller bearing is designed as a complete rolling bearing and consists of an inner ring with a roller cage and a separable outer ring. The tapered rolling elements roll on the inclined raceways and are guided by the flange of the inner ring. This design enables the bearing to withstand combined forces. This bearing complies with the standard tolerance class P0/PN or ABEC 1 for general use in mechanical engineering.

For which load combinations is the FAG 33010 tapered roller bearing suitable?

This rolling bearing is used for combined loads where radial forces and unilateral axial forces act simultaneously. As a single tapered roller bearing can only accommodate axial loads from one direction, the 33010 tapered roller bearing is usually mounted in a mirror-image configuration with a second mating bearing. This paired arrangement creates a rigid bearing arrangement with precise guidance, which can be precisely adjusted to the required operating conditions.

What is the function of the sheet steel cage in this bearing?

The built-in sheet steel cage guides the individual rollers at a uniform distance and prevents direct contact between the rolling elements. This reduces friction and ensures smooth guidance during operation. The metal cage design is dimensionally stable and withstands a wide temperature range from –30 to +120 degrees Celsius. For the open design, users select a suitable lubricant and an appropriate external housing seal depending on the operating environment.
