Decoding FAG NU1072-M1
- NU 10Series
- Cylindrical roller bearings, NU 10 series. Series differ in outside diameter and width even when the bore is the same.
- 72Bore
- Bore 360 mm (72 × 5).
- M1Suffix
- FAG suffix: identifies the variant, such as seals or shields, cage, internal clearance or other features.
NU 1072 is the standard ISO basic designation, which sets the bearing type, series and bore.
Description
FAG NU1072-M1 measures 360 mm across the bore and 540 mm across the outside diameter; its width is 82 mm (360 x 540 x 82 mm).

FAG NU series cylindrical roller bearings handle substantial radial forces and run well at elevated speeds. Their cylindrical rollers and machined brass cage suit tough industrial machinery, and MR Industrial Accessories supplies this line to customers throughout the United States and Latin America.
The part number tells you what you are holding. In a designation like NU19/560-M1, the NU prefix fixes the roller arrangement, the figure that follows sets the bore size, and the -M1 suffix points to a one-piece machined brass cage guided by the rollers. NU1044-M1 and NU1068-M1 follow the same pattern, so once you know the logic, reading a code before requesting a quote takes only a moment.
You will find these bearings in gearboxes, centrifugal pumps, high-flow fans, machine tools, conveyors and mining equipment. Their rigidity and radial capacity make them a fit for gear transmissions and for positions that demand high running accuracy. Food processing, petrochemical, steel and cement operations all rely on them in their lines.
Selection comes down to radial load, operating speed and the surrounding environment. Because these bearings do not tolerate misalignment well, the shaft and housing must line up precisely during mounting. Grease or oil lubrication both work, provided it is applied correctly, and the sealing choice should match the contamination level; add extra protection where dirt is present. The machined brass cage contributes strength and helps move heat away.
For replacements, bearings from other makers that share the same standardized designation can serve, but tolerances and internal clearance are not identical across manufacturers. Confirm those details before substituting, and have the complete original code on hand. Our team can review the application and suggest a suitable equivalent.

Frequently asked questions
- FAG NU1072-M1 bearing: what are its dimensions?
- FAG NU1072-M1 measures 360 mm across the bore and 540 mm across the outside diameter; its width is 82 mm (360 x 540 x 82 mm). Those are the boundary dimensions standardized in ISO 15 for basic designation NU 1072.
- What does the -M1 suffix indicate on an FAG bearing?
- It identifies a one-piece machined brass cage that is roller-guided. This cage type is known for strength and heat dissipation, which suits demanding operating conditions.
- How should I select a cylindrical roller bearing?
- Start with the radial load, speed and lubrication method, then factor in the environment and sealing needs. Shaft and housing alignment must be precise. If you are unsure, send your application details through WhatsApp and we will help.
- Can another brand replace an FAG bearing?
- Often yes, when the standardized designation matches. Tolerances and internal clearance can differ between manufacturers, so verify them before substituting. Send us the original code and our specialists will review it.
