Decoding FAG N324-E-XL-M1
- N 3Series
- Cylindrical roller bearings, N 3 series. Series differ in outside diameter and width even when the bore is the same.
- 24Bore
- Bore 120 mm (24 × 5).
- E-XL-M1Suffix
- FAG suffix: identifies the variant, such as seals or shields, cage, internal clearance or other features.
N 324 is the standard ISO basic designation, which sets the bearing type, series and bore.
Description
FAG N324-E-XL-M1 measures 120 mm across the bore and 260 mm across the outside diameter; its width is 55 mm (120 x 260 x 55 mm).

FAG N series cylindrical roller bearings are built for applications where radial force dominates and the shaft needs accurate guidance at speed. You will find them in gearboxes, machine tools and other industrial equipment. MR Industrial Accessories LLC supplies this FAG line and can help you match the correct part number to your application.
Reading the code helps you order the right bearing. The N tells you it is a single row cylindrical roller bearing: the outer ring carries two ribs, the inner ring none, so the shaft can move axially relative to the housing. The digits that follow, as in N221, N228 or N317, give the dimension series. Suffixes add detail: E marks a higher load capacity execution, XL the high-quality design, and M1 a one-piece machined brass cage. A code like N230-E-XL-M1 therefore combines series, reinforced execution, XL design and brass cage.
Typical duty includes reducers and gearboxes, machine tool spindles, high-flow centrifugal pumps, industrial fans and power transmission equipment. Steel, cement and mining operations also rely on them where shafts face continuous stress. Because they tolerate high speeds, electric motors and smaller turbines are common homes as well.
Selection comes down to three inputs: the radial load, the rotation speed and the lubrication method. The N design permits axial displacement along the shaft, which suits setups where thermal expansion occurs. Open or side-plate sealing depends on the surrounding environment. At assembly, verify alignment between shaft and housing and check internal clearance. Grease or oil must be chosen for the operating temperature and speed, since poor lubrication cuts service life.
On interchangeability: cylindrical roller bearings marked N with E, XL or M1 suffixes appear in other manufacturers' catalogs under similar nomenclature, but dimensions and tolerances can differ. Confirm the full part number and specifications before swapping brands. MR Industrial Accessories LLC supplies FAG and can advise on compatibility with other brands.

Frequently asked questions
- FAG N324-E-XL-M1 bearing: what are its dimensions?
- FAG N324-E-XL-M1 measures 120 mm across the bore and 260 mm across the outside diameter; its width is 55 mm (120 x 260 x 55 mm). Those are the boundary dimensions standardized in ISO 15 for basic designation N 324.
- What does the M1 suffix mean on an FAG bearing?
- M1 identifies a one-piece machined brass cage, roller-guided. It is used where loads and speeds are considerable.
- How do I know if I need an N series bearing?
- Choose N when the load is mainly radial and the shaft must be free to move axially inside the housing. For combined axial load, another configuration may fit better. Send us your equipment data and we will help.
- Can I replace an FAG bearing with one from another brand?
- Yes, if dimensions and tolerances match. Check the complete part number and specifications first. We can guide you on interchangeability so the replacement is safe.
