Deep groove ball bearing FAG 4306-BB-TVH, Outer diameter: 72 mm | Width: 27 mm | Inner diameter: 30 mm

This FAG two-row ball bearing has a higher load capacity than single-row models of the same diameter, while also withstanding both radial and axial loads. Its open design facilitates installation and maintenance. With its glass-fiber-reinforced polyamide cage, this bearing is particularly well-suited for applications requiring a combination of light weight, wear resistance, and flexibility.

Features:
This ball bearing, when paired in a “back-to-back” configuration, features a glass-fiber-reinforced polyamide cage, ensuring increased mechanical strength while being lighter in weight. Its open design allows for optimal heat dissipation, which is particularly important since its polyamide cage cannot withstand excessively high temperatures. The standard internal radial clearance ensures smooth operation and reduced friction, enabling it to reach high speeds. This double-row ball bearing is designed for applications where a single-row ball bearing would be insufficient, as it offers a much higher load capacity.

Maintenance:
The absence of a seal may pose a risk of lubricant leakage. It is therefore crucial to ensure regular lubrication of the bearing, either by greasing or oiling, depending on the operating conditions. This open design simplifies inspections and maintenance operations, thereby facilitating access to internal components. Periodic checks of key parameters, such as noise, temperature, lubrication, and vibration, are recommended to ensure long-term performance. Prompt replacement is advised if abnormal wear is detected.

Sealing:
This bearing offers no protection against external contaminants, such as dust or liquids. Due to its open design, it is exposed to its environment, which can lead to the ingress of dirt and lubricant leakage. It therefore requires a clean environment and adequate lubrication to prevent premature failure.
