FAG 22218-E1-XL-K C3 – 90 mm Tapered Bore Spherical Roller Bearing

FAG 22218-E1-XL-K C3 – 90 mm Tapered Bore Spherical Roller Bearing

The FAG 22218-E1-XL-K C3 is a high-performance spherical roller bearing designed to handle very heavy radial and axial loads. As part of the premium “X-life” series, it features a robust self-aligning design that compensates for shaft misalignment, and a larger-than-normal C3 internal clearance. The tapered bore allows for secure mounting on a cylindrical shaft using an adapter sleeve, making it a reliable choice for demanding applications.

About This Bearing

This product is a double-row spherical roller bearing. Its self-aligning capability is a key feature, as it allows the bearing to tolerate considerable shaft misalignment without affecting performance. The 22218-E1-XL-K C3 part number provides crucial design information: the E1 suffix indicates an optimized internal design for increased load capacity; XL signifies it is a premium “X-life” bearing for a longer service life; K denotes a tapered bore with a 1:12 taper for mounting with an adapter sleeve; and C3 specifies a larger-than-normal internal clearance to accommodate thermal expansion or misalignment.
