From mining equipment to steel mills, FAG bearings are trusted by OEMs and industrial users worldwide for their consistent performance and superior German engineering.
What Are FAG Spherical Roller Bearings?
FAG spherical roller bearings are double-row, self-aligning bearings with spherical outer raceways and specially designed barrel-shaped rollers. This design allows them to handle:
-
High radial loads
-
Moderate axial loads in both directions
-
Misalignment due to shaft deflection or mounting inaccuracies
Their robust construction and advanced sealing options make them ideal for the most demanding machinery environments.
