Spherical roller bearing FAG 23134-E1-XL-K-TVPB-C4

This FAG brand spherical roller bearing is designed for the most demanding industrial applications. Its robust design, featuring two symmetrical rows of rollers, provides excellent self-aligning capability, making it ideal for compensating for misalignment and shaft deflection. It features a polyamide cage guided by the inner ring, an open configuration without seals, and a tapered bore, offering great flexibility in installation. With increased radial clearance and a relubrication feature, this bearing ensures optimal performance even in harsh environments.

Features:
This self-aligning bearing features an E1 geometry without a central shoulder, which improves force distribution and increases radial load capacity. Its reinforced polyamide cage ensures excellent speed tolerance and reduces internal friction. The C4 clearance allows for effective compensation of thermal expansion, thereby preventing overheating during heavy-duty operation. The X-life finish improves internal contact and promotes smoother, quieter operation, while extending service life even under sustained loads. This double-row roller bearing is designed for extreme conditions where ruggedness is essential.

Maintenance:
This bearing features an open design with no integrated seals, making it susceptible to contaminants such as dust, solid particles, and moisture. It features an annular groove and three lubrication holes on the outer ring, ensuring even lubricant distribution and facilitating the removal of impurities. Regular relubrication is recommended, particularly in exposed environments. Its design allows for quick visual inspection and simplified maintenance. During any service work, impeccable cleanliness is essential to maintain its performance. In the event of contamination, thorough cleaning of the housing and external surfaces is recommended before relubrication. Thanks to X-life technology, service life is extended and maintenance intervals are spaced out, thus offering increased reliability in heavy-duty applications.

Sealing:
With its open design, this bearing has no integrated seals. It remains exposed to dust, moisture, and splashes. However, the presence of an active relubrication system creates a dynamic barrier against contaminants. This solution also ensures quick inspection and easier maintenance. For extended service life, it is best to use it in a clean environment or with suitable external protection.
