FAG FRM 120/10 Locating Ring

Product Description

The FAG FRM 120/10 is a locating ring designed for precise axial positioning of rolling bearings within housings or on shafts. Its primary function is to maintain the correct axial location of the bearing, preventing unwanted movement during operation and ensuring stable rotational behavior under both static and dynamic loads.

This locating ring is commonly used with spherical roller bearings, deep groove ball bearings, and bearing housings in industrial machinery, where reliability, precision, and mechanical stability are essential. By controlling axial displacement, the FRM 120/10 helps optimize bearing performance, reduce friction-related wear, and extend the operational lifetime of the entire bearing unit.

Manufactured from high-strength, wear-resistant steel, the FRM 120/10 ensures dimensional stability under thermal expansion and load variations. Its compatibility with standard FAG bearing housings allows for quick installation and easy integration into existing bearing setups.

Using a locating ring such as the FAG FRM 120/10 provides:

• Correct axial alignment of the bearing on the shaft or within the housing

• Greater operational stability under continuous or variable loading conditions

• Reduced maintenance frequency and extended bearing service life

• Improved lubrication efficiency and smoother operation

This product is widely used in industrial gearboxes, electric motors, conveyors, pumps, and high-duty machinery operating in continuous production environments.
