FAG M series deep groove ball bearings are single-row components fitted with a machined brass cage. They handle radial and axial loads in both directions, making them a fit for equipment that demands precision and rigidity, such as electric motors, pumps and gearboxes. MR Industrial Accessories supplies this line.
The part number tells you the series and cage type. The first digits indicate the series: 60 for a thin section, 62 for a medium section, and 63 for a thick section. The suffix -M confirms a machined brass cage. Examples include 6036-M and 6040-M from the 60 series, 6232-M and 6236-M from the 62 series, and 6328-M and 6330-M from the 63 series. The base number sets the bore diameter and section, while the final letter identifies the cage.
These bearings appear in large electric motors, centrifugal pumps, industrial fans, gearboxes and machine tools. Their capacity for high speeds and combined loads suits continuous operation in food, cement, steel and petrochemical plants. MR Industrial Accessories supplies them for both replacement and new projects.
When choosing a bearing, consider the radial and axial loads, the rotation speed and the operating environment. A brass cage withstands higher temperatures and dynamic stresses than a steel cage, so it is preferred for demanding applications. During installation, verify housing alignment, internal clearance and proper lubrication. Too much grease can increase the running temperature.
FAG deep groove ball bearings interchange with other brands that use the same dimensional nomenclature. For a quote, provide the complete part number including the -M suffix to ensure you get the brass cage. If your original equipment carries a different designation, we can help you find an equivalent.

Frequently asked questions
- FAG 6234-M bearing: what are its dimensions?
- FAG 6234-M measures 170 mm across the bore and 310 mm across the outside diameter; its width is 52 mm (170 x 310 x 52 mm). Those are the boundary dimensions standardized in ISO 15 for basic designation 6234.
- What does the -M suffix mean on these bearings?
- The -M suffix indicates a machined brass cage. This cage offers greater resistance to high temperatures and dynamic loads than steel cages, making it suitable for severe applications.
- How do I request a quote for an FAG M series bearing?
- Send the complete bearing part number, such as 6036-M or 6234-M, via WhatsApp or email. We will reply promptly with a quote.
- Can I replace a bearing from another brand with an FAG M series bearing?
- Yes, if the main dimensions and cage type match. Deep groove ball bearings follow international dimensional standards, so interchangeability is possible. Contact us with the original part number and we will advise you.
