The FAG NU series cylindrical roller bearing is a separable bearing with high radial load capacity, designed for shafts where loads are demanding and rotational speeds are high. Its design with two rows of rollers guided by a metal cage provides rigidity and precision, and allows easy mounting and dismounting on equipment subject to frequent maintenance. MR Accesorios Industriales supplies this line to plants and workshops throughout the country.
The designation of these bearings is read in blocks. The letters NU indicate that the outer ring has two ribs and the inner ring none, so the bearing only accepts radial loads and allows axial displacement on the shaft. The E indicates a design with higher load capacity, and XL identifies the quality treatment and long-life lubrication. The suffix M1 corresponds to the machined brass cage, suitable for high demands. Thus, a NU228-E-XL-M1 or a NU330-E-XL-M1 is interpreted by combining those blocks with the size number.
These bearings are used in equipment where the radial load is high and constant: gearboxes, centrifugal pumps, industrial fans, compressors, machine tools and conveyors. In Argentina they appear in the food, cement, steel and paper industries and in aggregate processing plants. They are also common in the oil & gas sector and in mining, where equipment runs at high speeds and requires scheduled replacement without stopping production longer than planned.
To choose the correct bearing, take into account the radial load, the rotational speed and the type of lubrication. The NU series does not support axial loads, so if the shaft receives thrust it must be combined with another bearing or a design with ribs must be chosen. Mounting is done with a fit on the inner ring and controlled internal clearance; it is advisable to verify the alignment of the shaft and the housing, and to use the lubricant indicated for the working temperature. The M1 cage better tolerates severe operating conditions.
When replacing, interchangeability between brands is defined by the complete designation: bearing type, dimension series, design and cage suffixes. An equivalent part number from another manufacturer may differ in internal clearance or heat treatment, so it is advisable to compare the data sheet and not just the size number. If you have doubts, send us the part number engraved on the bearing or the equipment model and we will help you identify the right option.
MR Accesorios Industriales supplies the FAG line of cylindrical roller bearings with technical advice for selection and mounting. If you need a quote for a NU228-E-XL-M1, a NU330-E-XL-M1 or any other size in the series, write to us on WhatsApp with the part number or a photo of the bearing and we will reply shortly.

Frequently Asked Questions
- What are the dimensions of the FAG NU2236-E-XL-M1 bearing?
- The FAG NU2236-E-XL-M1 bearing has a 180 mm bore, a 320 mm outside diameter and a 86 mm width (180 x 320 x 86 mm). These are the standardised boundary dimensions (ISO 15) of the basic designation NU 2236.
- What does the M1 suffix mean on a FAG NU bearing?
- The M1 suffix indicates a one-piece machined brass cage, roller-guided. It is a robust design, suitable for high loads and high speeds. It does not change the external dimensions of the bearing, but it does affect its dynamic behavior and wear resistance.
- Can I use an NU bearing where there is axial load?
- Not directly: the NU series only accepts radial load and allows axial displacement of the shaft. If the equipment has thrust, it must be combined with another bearing that supports it or a design with ribs must be chosen. Consult us with the drawing or the equipment part number and we will guide you.
- How do I request a quote for a FAG NU bearing?
- Write to us on WhatsApp with the complete part number shown on the bearing or in the equipment manual, for example NU228-E-XL-M1. If you don't have it at hand, send a photo of the part and the main dimensions. We will quote you shortly.
