FAG NU series cylindrical roller bearings are separable and built to handle demanding radial loads at high speeds. With two rows of rollers and a metal cage, they provide rigidity and precision, and they simplify mounting and removal on equipment that sees frequent maintenance. MR Industrial Accessories LLC supplies this line to plants and workshops across the United States and in several Latin American countries.

The part number breaks down into blocks. NU means the outer ring has two ribs and the inner ring has none, so the bearing takes radial load only and permits axial movement along the shaft. E denotes a higher load capacity design, while XL identifies the quality treatment and long-life lubrication. M1 is the machined brass cage for severe duty. Combine those blocks with the size number to read a NU228-E-XL-M1 or a NU330-E-XL-M1.

These bearings suit equipment with high, constant radial loads: gearboxes, centrifugal pumps, industrial fans, compressors, machine tools and conveyors. They are common in food processing, cement, steel and paper plants, as well as in aggregate operations, oil and gas, and mining, where high-speed equipment needs planned replacement without extended downtime.

Selection depends on radial load, rotational speed and lubrication type. Because the NU series does not carry axial load, any thrust on the shaft requires a second bearing or a ribbed design. Mount with the proper fit on the inner ring and controlled internal clearance, check shaft and housing alignment, and use the lubricant specified for the operating temperature. The M1 cage handles severe conditions better.

For replacement, interchangeability between brands is set by the full designation: bearing type, dimension series, design and cage suffixes. An equivalent from another maker may differ in internal clearance or heat treatment, so compare data sheets rather than just the size number. If in doubt, send the part number engraved on the bearing or the equipment model and we will help identify the correct option.
