24052 BE XL C3 FAG - Spherical Roller Bearing 260x400x140

Self-aligning bearing for very heavy industrial loads

High durability in demanding industrial applications

Stable operation under extreme operating conditions

Main description

The 24052 BE XL C3 FAG spherical roller bearing is a heavy-duty self-aligning bearing designed for the most demanding industrial applications, where extremely high radial loads, axial loads, and shaft misalignment occur simultaneously. The spherical roller design allows automatic compensation of angular misalignment between the shaft and the housing, significantly improving system reliability.

The BE XL execution features an optimized internal design with reinforced components and improved raceway geometry, resulting in increased load capacity and extended service life. The C3 internal clearance ensures reliable performance under elevated operating temperatures, high rotational speeds, or tight interference fits, making this bearing suitable for continuous heavy-load operation.

With dimensions of 260x400x140 mm and a weight of 65.87 kg, this bearing is intended for large and heavily loaded machinery. The FAG 24052 spherical roller bearing is commonly used in steel mills, mining equipment, power generation, cement plants, paper mills, and heavy gearboxes, crushers, mills, and rolling equipment. It often operates as a critical component within a robust bearing unit mounted in a reinforced bearing housing.

Unlike a ball bearing, this spherical roller bearing is engineered specifically for extreme load conditions, offering exceptional high durability and operational stability. It is a preferred solution for maintenance teams and machine manufacturers who require predictable performance and long service intervals in harsh industrial environments.
