We supply FAG’s Split spherical roller bearings. These split spherical roller bearings allow bearings to be replaced in no time. Compared to standard (solid) bearings, split bearings can be replaced in just a few steps.

Choosing the split spherical roller bearings reduces machinery and equipment downtime, which significantly lowers installation costs. In addition, new designs can take advantage of simplified layouts and lower labor costs. The FAG split spherical roller bearings are also a direct replacement and compatible with all plummer block housings (even from other manufacturers, provided that the internal dimensions are identical) – meaning no modifications to the housing required.

Unlike standard spherical roller bearings that use adapter sleeves, FAG split spherical roller bearings are easily installed on the shaft. Outside diameter, outer ring width and shaft seat diameter remain unchanged.
