C3 Clearance and TVH Cage Performance

Main Description

The 2303-TVH-C3 FAG 17x47x19 is a precision self-aligning ball bearing engineered for applications where shaft misalignment and mounting inaccuracies may occur. Its double-row design with a spherical outer ring raceway allows automatic compensation of angular misalignment between the shaft and the bearing housing, ensuring stable and reliable operation over long service periods.

This bearing is equipped with a TVH cage made from high-strength polymer, offering low mass, smooth ball guidance, and reduced noise during operation. The cage design supports consistent performance at higher rotational speeds and contributes to reduced friction and energy loss. In addition, the bearing features C3 internal clearance, making it suitable for operation at elevated temperatures, higher speeds, or in applications where thermal expansion is expected. This configuration significantly enhances high durability and operational safety.

With dimensions of 17x47x19 mm, the 2303-TVH-C3 FAG self-aligning ball bearing provides a balanced combination of compact size and load-carrying capability. It is designed to handle radial loads efficiently, along with moderate axial loads in both directions. The bearing can be installed as a standalone component or integrated into a complete bearing unit mounted within a suitable bearing housing, offering flexibility for machine design and maintenance.

This type of bearing is widely used in industrial applications such as electric motors, fans, conveyors, agricultural machinery, production equipment, and light gear systems. Its ability to tolerate misalignment makes it especially valuable in installations where perfect shaft alignment cannot be guaranteed, reducing stress on components and extending overall system life.

FAG is globally recognized for precision engineering and consistent quality. The 2303-TVH-C3 reflects these standards by delivering predictable performance, long service life, and reliable operation in demanding industrial environments. It is an ideal solution for B2B customers seeking a self-aligning ball bearing optimized for durability and operational stability.
