FAG 22207-E1-XL-K-C3 SPHERICAL ROLLER BEARING

This spherical roller bearing, manufactured by FAG and featuring X-life technology, stands out for its robustness, reliability, and extended service life. It is designed to deliver optimal performance even under demanding conditions.

Features:
- Two symmetrical rows of rollers that ensure uniform load distribution and guarantee high stability.
- A strong, lightweight, deep-drawn steel cage that enables good dynamic behavior and smooth operation at high speeds.
- An open design without a central shoulder (E1) that maximizes internal layout for improved load capacity.
- A tapered bore (K, 1:12 ratio) that allows for mounting via a sleeve or clamping bushing, or even directly on a tapered shaft. It allows for precise clearance adjustment while simplifying disassembly procedures.
- An increased radial clearance (class C3) that compensates for thermal expansion, limiting the risk of overheating during extended periods of use.
- An internal structure optimized for high speeds, thanks to an excellent surface finish and carefully designed internal geometry.
- An X-life (XL) series that improves the microgeometry of the raceways, reducing friction and significantly extending service life, while facilitating lubricant circulation.

Maintenance:
The bearing features an annular groove and three holes in the outer ring to allow for relubrication. This configuration enables maintenance without disassembly, ensuring even grease distribution and efficient removal of contaminants. Regular lubrication remains essential, particularly in dusty or humid environments. This bearing is compatible with a temperature range from –30 °C to +200 °C, provided that a suitable lubricant is used.

Sealing:
This bearing has no seals, making it susceptible to external contaminants. Additional protection is therefore recommended in contaminated environments. Nevertheless, this open design offers several advantages: easier access for relubrication, reduced rolling resistance, and the ability to operate at higher rotational speeds.

Brand:
FAG, a brand of the Schaeffler Group, enjoys a worldwide reputation in the field of bearings. With over 130 years of experience, it is recognized for the quality, reliability, and innovation of its products in both the industrial and automotive sectors. X-life technology embodies these standards by combining high technical performance with reduced maintenance requirements.

Key Benefits:
- X-life certified, it reduces friction, increases load capacity, and extends service life.
- Excellent resistance to axial and radial loads thanks to a robust design.
- Operates stably even under significant load or temperature fluctuations.
- Tapered bore and C3 radial clearance for a tight fit on the shaft and fine adjustment.
- Easy relubrication during operation thanks to the ports provided for this purpose.

Applications:
This spherical roller bearing is ideally suited for use in numerous industrial configurations: it is used in gearboxes, conveyors, fans, pumps, compressors, and secondary shafts of rotating machinery. Its ability to withstand heavy loads and its reliability in continuous operation make it a suitable choice for fixed installations. It is equally well-suited for the material handling and agricultural sectors as well as for materials processing and standard industrial environments.
