Description

FAG 238/630-XL-K-MA1 is a spherical roller bearing reference, within Bearings. Request a quote for 238/630-XL-K-MA1 via WhatsApp or email with the quantity you need; we respond promptly with lead time and equivalents.

The FAG spherical roller bearing is a self-aligning bearing with two rows of spherical rollers and a spherical raceway in the outer ring. It is designed to withstand high radial loads and axial loads in both directions, and to compensate for angular misalignment between shaft and housing. It is used in equipment with shaft deflection or mountings where exact alignment is not possible, such as transmissions, pumps, fans and process machinery. MR Accesorios Industriales sells it in Buenos Aires, Argentina, and helps you identify the correct variant.

The designation of this series is read in blocks. The main number indicates the size and dimension series; the letters that follow describe design features. In the example 238/630-XL-K-MA1, the numeric prefix defines the series and bore diameter, the K indicates a tapered bore, MA1 identifies a machined brass cage with outer guidance, and XL corresponds to the current generation of the product. When requesting a quote, provide the complete code so we can verify each suffix.

In Argentine industry, these bearings appear in equipment where the shaft operates with deflection or where the housing is not rigid: power transmissions, centrifugal pumps, industrial fans, conveyor belts and continuous process machines. They are also found in mining, cement, steel and aggregate processing plants, where loads are high and service conditions demanding. Their self-aligning capability makes them suitable for mountings that do not guarantee perfect alignment between supports.

To select the correct bearing, take into account the radial and axial load, the rotational speed and the bore type. The tapered bore variant is mounted on a tapered shaft or on an adapter sleeve, which facilitates adjustment of internal clearance. The machined brass cage is suitable for severe conditions and high temperatures. Lubrication must be chosen according to speed and operating temperature, and installation requires checking alignment and residual clearance to avoid overloading the rollers.

Spherical roller bearings are manufactured under dimension standards that allow interchangeability between brands: the same size code and equivalent suffixes can be replaced by another manufacturer's, provided that tolerances, clearance and lubrication conditions are verified. Not all suffixes are equivalent between brands, so it is advisable to compare the complete designation before substituting. MR Accesorios Industriales sells FAG as an official brand and can guide you on the appropriate variant for your equipment.

If you need this bearing, send the complete code via WhatsApp to MR Accesorios Industriales. With the model and application, the technical team reviews the designation and responds promptly with the corresponding alternative. You can also inquire about other brands or the associated adapter sleeve.

Frequently Asked Questions

What does the suffix K mean in the designation?
The letter K indicates that the bearing has a tapered bore. This allows it to be mounted on a tapered shaft or on an adapter sleeve, which facilitates adjustment of internal clearance during installation. It is a common variant in equipment requiring precise mounting.
How do I know if this bearing replaces the one I have installed?
Compare the complete code, not just the size number. Check the bore type, cage and clearance. If the code matches in all suffixes, the substitution is direct. If there are differences, consult us via WhatsApp with the original code and the application.
What lubrication is suitable for a spherical roller bearing?
It depends on speed, temperature and environment. For high speeds, use grease of adequate consistency; at high temperatures, use synthetic-based lubricant. The amount and frequency of relubrication are defined according to the service. Consult the equipment's technical data sheet.
