FAG NU 2211 E TVP2 55x100x25 Cylindrical Roller Bearing

Applications

The FAG NU 2211 E TVP2 (55x100x25 mm) is a single-row cylindrical roller bearing designed for industrial and mechanical systems that demand high radial load capacity, precision, and reliability.
This model is widely used in electric motors, gearboxes, pumps, compressors, conveyors, and machine tools, as well as in agricultural and transport machinery, where dimensional stability and long service life are essential.

The NU-type construction allows for axial displacement of the shaft within the bearing, making it ideal for applications with thermal expansion or misalignment between shaft and housing.

Advantages

• Premium FAG quality (Germany) - ensures precision manufacturing, long service life, and quiet operation under high radial loads.

• NU-type design - axial movement compensation - the outer ring has two ribs while the inner ring has none, allowing the shaft to move freely in the axial direction.

• TVP2 cage (polyamide, glass-fiber reinforced) - lightweight, durable, and heat-resistant, reducing friction and operational noise.

• Enhanced load capacity (E design) - optimized geometry for increased dynamic load rating and improved running accuracy.

• High-speed performance - suitable for applications with variable speeds and elevated operating temperatures.

FAQ

1. What does “NU” mean in FAG NU 2211 E TVP2?
“NU” indicates a cylindrical roller bearing with two ribs on the outer ring and none on the inner ring. This design allows the shaft to move axially inside the bearing, compensating for thermal expansion or misalignment.

2. What are the advantages of the TVP2 cage?
The TVP2 cage is made of a reinforced polyamide that reduces friction, noise, and heat generation, while maintaining durability at high speeds and temperatures.

3. Can this bearing replace other types, such as NJ or NUP series?
Not directly. While all are cylindrical roller bearings, NU-type is best for free axial movement, whereas NJ and NUP types can support limited axial loads.

4. What maintenance does this bearing require?
This bearing can operate maintenance-free when properly lubricated, but regular inspection and re-lubrication are recommended in continuous-duty or high-load environments.

5. Is this bearing suitable for high-speed operation?
Yes. The E design and TVP2 cage enable stable operation at high rotational speeds without overheating or deformation.
