FAG spherical roller bearings are self-aligning double-row components, designed to withstand high radial loads and axial loads in both directions, even with misaligned shafts. They are used in heavy equipment where shaft deflection or mounting errors are common. MR Accesorios Industriales sells this line with technical advice so you choose the correct execution for your application.
The designation of this series is read in blocks. The base number indicates the type and main dimension; the suffix BEA defines the internal design with brass cage and special machining; XL indicates the high load capacity execution; K30 specifies a tapered bore with 1:30 taper; and MB1 identifies the brass cage guided by the inner ring. Thus, each part number combines all those characteristics in a single reference.
These bearings are used in basic industries: steel, cement, mining, paper, cranes and power transmission. In Argentina you'll find them in gearboxes, mills, screens, heavy fans and material handling equipment. Their ability to absorb misalignment makes them ideal for mountings where perfect alignment between supports cannot be guaranteed.
To select correctly, take into account the radial and axial load, the rotation speed and the type of lubrication. The K30 tapered bore requires a suitable adapter sleeve to achieve the necessary internal fit. Check the sealing: if the environment has dust or moisture, choose executions with seals. Lubrication must be the one indicated by the manufacturer and mounting must be done with appropriate tools so as not to damage the rollers.
As for equivalences, spherical roller bearings are available from different brands under similar, but not identical, nomenclatures. Dimensional interchangeability follows international standards, although suffixes may vary. Always confirm the full part number and the service conditions before replacing one bearing with another from a different manufacturer.

Frequently Asked Questions
- What are the dimensions of the FAG 240/1060-BEA-XL-K30-MB1 bearing?
- The FAG 240/1060-BEA-XL-K30-MB1 bearing has a 1060 mm bore, a 1500 mm outside diameter and a 438 mm width (1060 x 1500 x 438 mm). These are the standardised boundary dimensions (ISO 15) of the basic designation 240/1060.
- What does the K30 suffix mean on these bearings?
- K30 indicates that the bore is tapered with a 1:30 taper. This allows it to be mounted on an adapter sleeve or a tapered shaft to achieve a controlled interference fit. It is important to use the right sleeve and follow the recommended mounting procedure.
- How do I know if I need a bearing with a brass cage?
- The brass cage, identified by the MB1 suffix, is used in applications with high loads, high speeds or severe conditions. It offers greater strength and guidance than steel cages. If your original equipment comes with this execution, it's best to keep it so as not to compromise performance.
- Can I replace a FAG bearing with another brand?
- Yes, as long as the dimensions and load capacity are equivalent. International standards guarantee dimensional interchangeability, but suffixes may differ between manufacturers. We recommend verifying the full part number and consulting us to confirm the equivalence before buying.
