FAG 22334-BE-XL-JPA-T41A SPHERICAL ROLLER BEARING

The spherical roller bearing is a mechanical component designed to simultaneously absorb high radial and axial loads; its distinctive feature is its self-aligning capability, which allows it to compensate for misalignment and shaft deflection. This model is specifically designed for vibrating or oscillating applications. It features a deep-drawn sheet steel cage and an open design with no integrated seals. This product is ideally suited for applications subject to high mechanical stresses, particularly those involving continuous vibrations or alternating loads.

Features:
This self-aligning bearing incorporates two symmetrical rows of rollers and features an optimized geometry for improved load distribution. Designed for vibrating or oscillating applications, it offers enhanced precision and improved shock resistance. Its BE design, featuring a floating center shoulder, improves axial guidance and dynamic stability. The C4 internal clearance is suitable for environments subject to significant thermal and mechanical stresses, while the lightweight cage ensures smooth rotational performance. Schaeffler’s exclusive X-life technology enhances performance through reduced friction and a precision-finished surface. This product also features an annular groove and three lubrication holes for easy maintenance. The absence of seals allows for higher rotational speeds while minimizing rolling resistance.

Maintenance:
Its open design allows for quick visual inspection and simplified maintenance. This bearing contains no factory-applied lubricant; therefore, the user must provide lubrication, using grease or oil, depending on the operating environment. Regular relubrication is essential, especially in contaminated conditions. Three lubrication holes facilitate even lubricant injection and the removal of contaminants. Thanks to X-life technology, lubricant circulation is optimized, reducing internal heating and stabilizing operating temperatures up to 200 °C when using a suitable lubricant. During maintenance, it is imperative to ensure maximum cleanliness to prevent the introduction of harmful particles.

Sealing:
This product is designed without seals, making it an “open” bearing. This configuration makes it more vulnerable to external contaminants, such as dust or moisture. The presence of integrated lubrication channels compensates for this openness by providing effective protection against contamination, provided that regular maintenance is performed.
