Decoding FAG 240/900-BEA-XL-K30-MB1
- 240Series
- Spherical roller bearings, 240 series. Series differ in outside diameter and width even when the bore is the same.
- /900Bore
- Bore: 900 mm.
- BEA-XL-K30-MB1Suffix
- FAG suffix: identifies the variant, such as seals or shields, cage, internal clearance or other features.
240/900 is the standard ISO basic designation, which sets the bearing type, series and bore.
Description

FAG spherical roller bearings are double-row, self-aligning units built to carry heavy radial loads along with axial loads in either direction, even when the shaft is misaligned. They suit heavy machinery where shaft deflection or mounting inaccuracies are normal. MR Industrial Accessories supplies this line and helps you identify the right execution for the job.
Reading the part number is a matter of breaking it into blocks. The base number tells you the type and the main dimension. BEA points to an internal design that uses a brass cage with special machining. XL marks the high load capacity version. K30 means the bore is tapered at 1:30. MB1 identifies a brass cage guided by the inner ring. Every reference brings those characteristics together.
You will find these bearings in steel, cement, mining, paper, crane and power transmission operations. They appear in gearboxes, mills, screens, heavy fans and material handling equipment. Because they tolerate misalignment, they work well in mountings where supports cannot be perfectly aligned.
When selecting, consider the radial and axial load, the speed and the lubrication method. A K30 tapered bore needs a matching adapter sleeve to reach the required internal fit. Look at sealing as well: dusty or damp surroundings call for sealed versions. Use the lubricant specified by the manufacturer and mount with the correct tools so the rollers are not damaged.
Spherical roller bearings from different brands carry similar, though not identical, nomenclatures. Dimensional interchangeability follows international standards, but suffixes can change. Before swapping one bearing for another make, confirm the complete part number and the operating conditions.

Frequently asked questions
- FAG 240/900-BEA-XL-K30-MB1 bearing: what are its dimensions?
- FAG 240/900-BEA-XL-K30-MB1 measures 900 mm across the bore and 1280 mm across the outside diameter; its width is 375 mm (900 x 1280 x 375 mm). Those are the boundary dimensions standardized in ISO 15 for basic designation 240/900.
- What does the K30 suffix mean on these bearings?
- K30 means the bore is tapered at 1:30. That lets the bearing be mounted on an adapter sleeve or a tapered shaft to achieve a controlled interference fit. Use the correct sleeve and follow the recommended mounting procedure.
- How do I know if I need a bearing with a brass cage?
- The brass cage, shown by the MB1 suffix, is used in applications with high loads, high speeds or severe conditions. It provides greater strength and guidance than steel cages. If your original equipment comes with this execution, it is best to keep it so performance is not compromised.
- Can I replace a FAG bearing with another brand?
- Yes, as long as the dimensions and load capacity are equivalent. International standards ensure dimensional interchangeability, but suffixes may differ between manufacturers. Verify the full part number and consult us to confirm the equivalence before buying.
