The U310 washer from FAG Wälzlager features a defined steel contact surface measuring 72 x 100 x 11 mm.
The U310 shim washer from FAG Rolling Bearings is used as an accessory in the rolling bearing sector for axial support and positioning. Manufactured from sturdy steel, the component absorbs axial forces and protects the adjacent structure from wear. With a bore of 72 mm, an outer diameter of 100 mm and a width of 11 mm, this washer fits precisely into suitable bearing arrangements. Design engineers and maintenance technicians use it for spacing or as a fixed abutment surface.
The U310 washer is primarily used in industrial shaft bearings where components need to be secured axially or spaced apart. The component distributes axial loads evenly across the machine housing or adjacent components. The steel washer is often used as a contact surface for bearing rings when the surrounding material does not have a sufficiently smooth surface finish. Maintenance engineers use it during repair work to compensate for axial play and to guide gearbox shafts precisely.
Before fitting, check that it matches the shaft and housing bore. The 72 mm bore must fit cleanly into the shaft seat without jamming. The outer diameter of 100 mm determines the required installation space within the housing, whilst the width of 11 mm specifies the axial installation position. As the washer is made of steel, it can withstand mechanical surface pressures. Before assembly, ensure that all contact surfaces are free from dirt and particles.
The disc has an internal diameter of 72 mm, an external diameter of 100 mm and a width of 11 mm. These dimensions define the required installation space on the shaft and within the housing. A precise fit prevents unacceptable misalignment of adjacent components during operation.
FAG Rolling Bearings manufactures this steel washer. The metallic material offers high dimensional stability and absorbs axial compressive forces without undue deformation. This ensures that the axial positioning of the components mounted on the bearing remains stable even under high mechanical stress, thereby protecting adjacent components from wear.
The component is primarily used as an axial spacer or counter-support in roller bearing assemblies. It transmits axial forces from a bearing ring to the machine housing or the shaft. At the same time, the washer compensates for axial tolerances and protects softer housing materials from direct, localised loading.
Slide the disc axially onto the 72 mm shaft until it lies flush against the designated stop. Before doing so, thoroughly clean all contact surfaces of swarf and dirt particles. It is essential that the disc sits without any tilt so that it absorbs axial forces evenly and does not introduce any unwanted stresses into the roller bearing.
Replace the disc if the flat surfaces show visible grooves, indentations or deformation. Damaged contact surfaces lead to an uneven wear pattern and may affect the concentricity of the entire bearing assembly. A visual inspection of the contact surfaces is recommended whenever a major gearbox or shaft overhaul is carried out.
