3208-BD-XL-TVH-C3 FAG Double Row Angular Contact Ball Bearing
The 3208-BD-XL-TVH-C3 FAG Double Row Angular Contact Ball Bearing is a precision-engineered bearing designed to handle simultaneous radial and axial loads in both directions. This robust bearing combines FAG's renowned engineering excellence with advanced design features, making it ideal for demanding industrial applications requiring superior load-carrying capacity and reliability.
Design & Construction
Double row angular contact bearings feature precisely displaced raceways in both inner and outer rings, enabling exceptional handling of combined loads acting in multiple directions. This dual-row configuration provides a stiff bearing arrangement with excellent load distribution, while also delivering superior tilting moment capability. The polyamide cage construction ensures lightweight operation with reduced friction, while maintaining exceptional durability and performance consistency.
The open design (no seals) allows for unrestricted bearing operation, making it suitable for applications where seal contamination or maintenance concerns exist. The slightly increased radial clearance provides operational flexibility for varying load conditions and thermal expansion.
