FAG 20216-K-TVP-C3 Barrel Roller Bearing (80x140x26)

As a barrel roller bearing, this bearing carries high radial loads and accommodates misalignment. For this FAG bearing, 80x140x26 mm and a weight of 1.72 kg apply; the specification table holds the further technical particulars. This variant features increased radial clearance (C3). Increased clearance (C3) and the spherical outer raceway meet here: self-alignment for the misalignment, additional residual play for the heating.

As with every barrel roller bearing, the single-row set of barrel-shaped rollers aligns itself on the spherical outer raceway and accommodates misalignment and shaft deflection under predominantly radial load. Compared with the standard configuration, the clearance here is increased (C3): an interference fit and a temperature difference between inner and outer ring reduce the mounted clearance, and the larger initial play still keeps the operating clearance within the intended range instead of letting it fall as far as a preloading of the rolling contact.

That is the usual case with a tight inner ring fit, under high load with the corresponding heating, and in drives whose shaft temperature lies well above that of the housing. The open form leaves sealing and lubricant retention to the surrounding construction, whose seal must follow the alignment movement of the bearing. For the design, the fit, the temperature difference between the rings, the misalignment and the radial force should be assessed together.

Increased radial clearance C3 — Dimensional/form-fit equivalent — verify suffix-level details for critical applications. Matching suffixes are also listed by SKF (HC5C3, HC5C3WT, C3), NSK (C3), NTN (C3) and NACHI (C3).
