FAG Bearing Selection Guide

Choosing the right FAG bearing depends on load direction, speed, operating temperature, lubrication, sealing requirements and installation space. Ball bearings are often used for high-speed and lighter-load applications, while roller bearings are preferred for heavy radial loads, shock loads and demanding industrial equipment.

Main FAG Bearing Types

  • FAG deep groove ball bearings: suitable for motors, fans, pumps and general machinery.
  • FAG angular contact ball bearings: used in precision equipment and high-speed spindle applications.
  • FAG cylindrical roller bearings: designed for high radial loads in gearboxes, motors and compressors.
  • FAG spherical roller bearings: ideal for heavy-duty machinery where misalignment and vibration may occur.
  • FAG tapered roller bearings: suitable for combined radial and axial loads in transmissions and industrial equipment.
