Decoding FAG 3211-BD-XL-2HRS-TVH
- 32Series
- Angular contact ball bearings, 32 series. Series differ in outside diameter and width even when the bore is the same.
- 11Bore
- Bore 55 mm (11 × 5).
- BD-XL-2HRS-TVHSuffix
- FAG suffix: identifies the variant, such as seals or shields, cage, internal clearance or other features.
3211 is the standard ISO basic designation, which sets the bearing type, series and bore.

FAG 32..-BD series angular contact ball bearings are designed with raceways that handle combined radial and axial loads in a single direction. They suit setups where the shaft needs precise guidance while transmitting moderate axial forces, such as gearboxes, pumps, fans, and machine tools. MR Industrial Accessories supplies this line and offers technical guidance to help you select the correct part number.
The part number breaks down into distinct elements. The base number, such as 3202, 3203, or 3204, sets the size and load capacity. The BD suffix denotes the single row angular contact design with modified raceways. XL points to an optimized cage design and surface treatment. 2HRS indicates a double-lip seal on both sides, which keeps lubricant in and contaminants out. TVH refers to the ball-guided cage made of glass fiber reinforced polyamide. A complete reference like 3205-BD-XL-2HRS-TVH or 3208-BD-XL-2HRS-TVH brings all these features together.
These bearings are common in transmission equipment, centrifugal pumps, industrial fans, screw compressors, food processing machinery, and packaging lines. They also appear in agricultural settings, such as seeders and combine harvesters, where dust and moisture require effective sealing. Because they are angular contact, they are typically mounted in pairs, either face-to-face or matched, to handle axial loads in both directions and add rigidity to the assembly.
When choosing the right part number, consider the direction of the axial load, the internal clearance, and the sealing type. The 2HRS variant comes pre-lubricated from the factory and usually needs no additional maintenance; in very aggressive environments, external protections should be evaluated. During installation, ensure proper alignment of shaft and housing, avoid impacts on the raceway edges, and use suitable mounting tools. The TVH cage performs well under normal accelerations and operating temperatures.
If you are replacing a bearing from another brand, interchangeability depends on the main dimensions and design type. An angular contact part number with sealing and a polyamide cage may cross to other nomenclatures, but always confirm bore diameter, outside diameter, width, and contact angle before substituting. At MR Industrial Accessories, we can help you find an equivalent based on the original part number or the equipment dimensions.
To request a quote, send the complete part number from the bearing or machine manual via WhatsApp or email, for example 3206-BD-XL-2HRS-TVH. If you do not have it, provide the shaft and housing dimensions and the application type. We will respond promptly with the corresponding reference and mounting recommendations.

Frequently asked questions
- FAG 3211-BD-XL-2HRS-TVH bearing: what are its dimensions?
- FAG 3211-BD-XL-2HRS-TVH measures 55 mm across the bore and 100 mm across the outside diameter; its width is 33.3 mm (55 x 100 x 33.3 mm). Those are the boundary dimensions standardized in ISO 15 for basic designation 3211.
- What does the 2HRS suffix indicate on these FAG bearings?
- The 2HRS suffix means the bearing has a double-lip seal on both sides. This seal retains the factory grease and blocks dust, water, or particles, making it suitable for moderately contaminated environments.
- Can they be mounted individually or must they always be in pairs?
- They can be mounted individually, but because they are angular contact in one direction, the usual practice is to arrange them in face-to-face or matched pairs to absorb axial loads in both directions and achieve greater rigidity in the assembly.
- How do I request a quote for a specific part number?
- Write to us via WhatsApp with the complete part number shown on the bearing, for example 3207-BD-XL-2HRS-TVH, or with the shaft and housing dimensions. We will reply shortly with the information to request a quote.
