FAG 22228-E1-XL-K-C4 SPHER ROLLER BEARING

This FAG brand spherical roller bearing is designed to withstand heavy loads while compensating for misalignment. Thanks to its X-life technology and robust construction, it guarantees reliability and performance. Ideal for fixed mountings, it combines high load capacity, shock resistance, and stable operation at high speeds.

Features:
Featuring two rows of spherical rollers, this bearing ensures excellent distribution of radial and axial loads in both directions. Its deep-drawn steel cage provides good resistance to continuous rotation and dynamic loads. The tapered mounting (1:12 ratio) allows for fine adjustment of the internal clearance, which improves precision and service life. The E1 design, without a central shoulder, optimizes load capacity. The C4 radial clearance accommodates thermal expansion, reducing the risk of overheating, even at high speeds. The X-life finish enhances durability by reducing internal friction and improving contact quality between surfaces.

Maintenance:
This bearing is shipped without lubricant. It must be greased or oiled depending on the application. Three lubrication holes and an annular groove facilitate relubrication during operation. Regular lubrication is essential, especially in dusty or humid environments. The open design allows for easy visual access for routine inspections. Cleanliness is essential during any maintenance operation. The housing and surrounding components must be cleaned before adding lubricant. X-life technology improves grease circulation, limits overheating, and extends the intervals between maintenance.

Sealing:
This bearing is unsealed: it has no seals or built-in protection. It is therefore exposed to contaminants, dust, and moisture. This drawback is offset by easier relubrication and direct visual inspection. Caution: In contaminated environments, ensure the housing remains clean to prevent any deterioration in performance.
