2204 FAG – Self-aligning ball bearing

Double-row self-aligning ball bearings, series 2200 (FAG). It is the wide series of double-row self-aligning ball bearings, whose spherical outer ring raceway lets the shaft tilt without straining the bearing. This page lists 22 codes, with bores from 10 to 50 mm: choose the code from the menu above.

Features

• The spherical outer ring raceway lets the shaft tilt a few degrees without straining the bearing
• Ideal for long shafts that flex or housings that are hard to align
• Low friction, cool running
• Wide series: larger balls than the narrow 1200 series, also available sealed (2RS) where shown in the code

Typical applications

• Long transmission shafts
• Agricultural machinery
• Fans
• Textile machinery
• Conveyor belts
• Woodworking machinery

Technician's tipIf you mount the shaft on two distant supports or on a welded frame, a self-aligning bearing absorbs the misalignment that would kill a deep groove ball bearing.

Temperatures and speeds are general guidelines for standard steel bearings: for special conditions ask us for the manufacturer's data.
