FAG-Rolling Bearing Codes
FAG-Rolling Bearing Codes
Suffixes identify special bearing design features such as: internal design, outside dimensions and external
form, seals, cages, tolerances, bearing clearances, heat treatment etc. In addition, they serve for
indicating special FAG regulations. Suffixes can consist of several parts. Various suffixes include a dot to
improve the legibility of the code.
A dot put in parentheses (.) means that, if identical characters appear in succession - number on number
or letter on letter - , a dot is to be included, in the case of different characters it is to be omitted.
Examples: 6210.RSR.T.C3.L12; 6205TVH.C3
Internal design
A,B,C,D,E N
The meaning of these characters attached to the basic code is not Circular groove for snap ring in the outer ring (at the open end of deep
specifically fixed. They are used in accordance with requirements for groove ball bearings with one seal). N applies only to radial bearings.
identifying modifications of the bearing design and certain design Example: 6210ZRN (deep groove ball bearing)
features. They can also be combined with each other (max. 3 without
dots). NR
Circular groove in the outer ring with an inserted snap ring; at the open
A end of deep groove ball bearings with one seal. NR applies only to
Modified internal design. radial bearings.
Example: 32310A (tapered roller bearing) Example: 6307RSRNR (deep groove ball bearing)
B N2
Modified internal design. Two locating slots at one end of the outer ring or in the housing
Examples: washer.
7230B (angular contact ball bearing with a contact angle of 40"), Example: QJ220N2MPA (four-point bearing)
322078 (tapered roller bearing with an enlarged contact angle)
NNF5011B.2LS.V (full complement cylindrical roller bearing, double .OB
row) Cylindrical roller bearing without loose lip (does not apply to designs
NUP and NP).
C Example: NJP310E.OB
Modified internal design.
Examples: .CSR
B7216C (spindle bearing with a contact angle of 15°) S-type bearing without locating device.
NNF5012C.2LS.V (full complement cylindrical roller bearing, double Example: 16206.OSR
row with a modified boundary circle diameter, dimensions E and F
adapted to NCF3012V) .OZWR
Tapered roller bearing, double row, without spacer.
DA Example: 500000.OZWR
Double row angular contact ball bearing with split separable inner ring.
Example: 3306DA R
Radial bearing with flange at the outer ring. Only valid for products for
E which the dimensional design is defined in drawings, tables, guidelines
Modified internal design. Series bearings: usually reinforced design. etc.(e.g. deep groove ball bearings in accordance with DIN 625, Part 4)
Examples: Example: 6205R
NU207E.1VP2 (cylindrical roller bearing),
22208ES (spherical roller bearing),
29420B (spherical roller thrust bearing)
s
Lubricating groove and three lubricating holes in the outer ring.
Example: 22205ES (spherical roller bearing)
Outside dimensions and external form Exception: double-row cylindrical roller bearing of series
NNU49 .!: 500 mm outside diameter normally have one lubricating
.B ... groove and six lubricating holes in the outer ring.
With spacers for multirow tapered roller bearings the figure following Example: NNU4976S.M.P53 (double-row cylindrical roller bearing)
the suffJX .B gives the width in millimeters .
Example: ZWR.500000.B20,6 Upon request, bearings with lubricating groove and lubricating holes
can also be ordered without groove and holes with suffJX H40.
Example: 22208EAS.M.C3.H40 (spherical roller bearing without
EK lubricating groove and lubricating holes)
Thrust ball bearing without housing washer.
Example: 51210EK Bearings with/or without lubricating groove and a different number of
lubricating holes can be ordered with H40*.
K Examples:
Tapered bearing bore, taper 1:12. 22305EAS.M.H40AC (spherical roller bearing with lubricating groove
Example: 2218K.C3 (self-aligning ball bearing) an 3 lubricating holes in the outer ring and a additional lubricating
groove and 6 lubricating holes in the inner ring)
NNU4940S.M.P53.H40CA (double-row cylindrical roller bearing, wit
K30 lubricating groove and 6 lubricating holes in the outer ring)
Tapered bearing bore, taper 1:30.
Example: 24156BK30 (spherical roller bearing) SY
Bearing without lubricating groove, but with three lubricating holes in
the outer ring.
Example: 22314ESY (spherical roller bearing)
