How to read FAG 2222-M
- 22Series
- Self-aligning ball bearings, 22 series. For the same bore, each series has a different outside diameter and width.
- 22Bore
- 110 mm bore: 22 × 5.
- MSuffix
- FAG suffix: it defines the variant (sealing, cage, internal clearance or other features).
2222 is the standard (ISO) basic designation: it defines the type, the series and the bore.
Description
The FAG 2222-M bearing has a 110 mm bore, a 200 mm outside diameter and a 53 mm width (110 x 200 x 53 mm).

FAG self-aligning ball bearings are self-aligning bearings with two rows of balls and a spherical raceway in the outer ring. This geometry allows them to compensate for angular misalignment of the shaft relative to the housing, something a deep groove ball bearing cannot accommodate. They are used in equipment where perfect alignment is not guaranteed or where the shaft flexes under load. MR Accesorios Industriales sells them in Buenos Aires, Argentina.
The designation of this series is read as a size number followed by the suffix -M. In the series examples, such as 1219-M, 1220-M or 1230-M, the number increases with the bearing size and the M indicates the solid brass cage, which is the standard design of this line. The number is not a diameter or a direct measurement: it is the size code that must be cross-referenced with a table to determine the dimensions. Therefore, to request a quote, the most practical approach is to send the complete part number as it appears on the drawing or on the old bearing.
These bearings appear in industrial fans, centrifugal pumps, conveyors, mixers and transmission equipment where the shaft may become misaligned due to mounting, flexing or thermal expansion. In Argentine plants they are found in process lines, air handling equipment and continuous motion machinery. The self-aligning capability reduces parasitic stresses on the shaft and on the support, and simplifies mounting when the housing is not perfectly concentric.
To select a self-aligning ball bearing, take into account the radial and axial load it will support, the rotation speed and the degree of misalignment the equipment needs to compensate for. Internal clearance and cage type influence high-speed behavior and lubrication. During mounting, take care with the cleanliness of the housing and shaft, verify that the fit is correct and lubricate with the amount and type of grease or oil appropriate for the operating conditions.
Self-aligning ball bearings from different brands with equivalent designations and dimensions are available on the market. Interchangeability depends on matching main dimensions, cage type and internal clearance. When the part number of one brand does not exactly match that of another, it is advisable to compare the dimension table and not rely solely on the number. If you have doubts, send us the original part number and the housing dimensions.
If you need to replace a self-aligning ball bearing, write to us on WhatsApp with the part number engraved on the bearing or with the shaft and housing dimensions. At MR Accesorios Industriales we respond shortly with the corresponding alternative. You can also ask us about other lines of bearings, housings and mounting accessories that we sell.

Frequently Asked Questions
- What are the dimensions of the FAG 2222-M bearing?
- The FAG 2222-M bearing has a 110 mm bore, a 200 mm outside diameter and a 53 mm width (110 x 200 x 53 mm). These are the standardised boundary dimensions (ISO 15) of the basic designation 2222.
- What does the -M suffix mean on these bearings?
- The M indicates a solid brass cage, the standard design of this series. It is a construction detail that influences high-speed behavior and mechanical strength. To confirm the exact design of a specific part number, send it by WhatsApp and we will verify it.
- How do I know what size a 1220-M bearing is?
- The number in the designation is a size code, not a direct measurement. To determine bore, outer diameter and width, that code must be cross-referenced with the manufacturer's table. If you send us the part number or the shaft and housing dimensions, we can guide you.
- Can it be replaced with another brand?
- Yes, as long as the main dimensions, cage type and internal clearance match. Interchangeability between brands is verified by comparing dimension tables. Do not rely solely on the number: send us the original part number and dimensions to confirm the equivalence.
