Introduction
Sealed FAG spherical roller bearings offer a cost-effective and environmentally friendly solution for continuous casting plants and other applications. These bearings significantly reduce grease consumption, thus lowering costs and environmental impact.

Applications
Primarily used in continuous casting plants, these bearings are also suitable for pumps, transmissions, and materials handling engineering. They require up to 80% less grease than open bearings, making them an excellent choice for reducing operational costs and environmental impact.

Characteristics

• Main dimensions are identical to open bearings, allowing easy substitution.
• Comparable load ratings to open bearings with metal cages.
• Features an E-design with an inner ring without a center lip.
• Available with machined brass or pressed steel cages.
• Lubricated with a tested lubricant suitable for temperatures from -35°C to +180°C, and dimensionally stable up to 200°C.
• Equipped with rubbing seals made of fluorocaoutchouc, suitable for temperatures from -30°C to +180°C, with short-term resistance up to +200°C.
• Self-aligning capability of 0.5° from the center position.
• Special designs with circumferential grooves and lubricating holes are available.

Safety Note
Fluorinated materials used in seals can release harmful gases if heated above 300°C. Safety data sheets should be consulted when high temperatures are unavoidable.

Programme
The product range includes sealed spherical roller bearings with bore diameters from 40 to 200 mm. Delivery periods are provided upon inquiry.

Technical Specifications
Detailed specifications include equivalent dynamic and static load calculations, dimensions, load ratings, and permissible speeds for various bearing sizes.

Customer Benefits
Sealed bearings offer significant cost savings over open bearings by reducing grease usage and eliminating the need for pumping units and lubricating lines. They also require less maintenance and have longer lifespans, quickly offsetting their higher initial cost.

Conclusion
Sealed FAG spherical roller bearings provide a sustainable and economical solution for various industrial applications, offering significant operational and environmental benefits.
