FAG Rolling Bearings for Rolling Mills
This publication contains tables of rolling bearings which are mainly used in rolling mills. On the one hand it covers bearings with standardized dimensions (DIN 616), and on the other hand bearings which were developed especially for rolling mills. The bearing tables are complemented by tables of support rollers for multi-roll cold rolling mills.

Radial Insert Ball Bearings and Housing Units
Black SeriesThe new radial insert ball bearing and housing units FAG Black Series from Schaeffler Group give easy mounting, smooth running and high reliability and thus allow particularly economical bearing arrangements. The dimensions of the FAG housings, made from flake graphite cast iron and with a primer paint coating, conform to JIS B 1559. These single piece cast housings can support moderate to high radial and axial loads. The radial insert ball bearings have basic protection against corrosion due to the Durotect® coating. The bearing units are particularly suitable for applications with moderate to high loads.

Split Cylindrical Roller Bearings For Rolling Mill Drive Shafts
The work rolls of large four-high rolling stands are driven via universal joint drive shafts. After every rolling cycle the height of the rolls is adjusted. The drive shafts must follow the adjusting movement. Therefore they have universal joints. Due to the height adjustment, the shaft length varies as well, which has to be compensated in a coupling sleeve. The universal joint shafts are generally very long to ensure that the deflection angles do not become too large. Because of the high torques which have to be transmitted they are strong and heavy.

Back-up Rollers for multi-roll cold rolling mills
The requirements placed on the quality of rolled products in relation to flatness, thickness tolerance and surface quality are continually increasing, thus placing very high demands on the back-up rollers used in multi-roll cold rolling mills. In close partnership with the customer, we therefore continually design, test and develop to production-ready status new bearings optimally suited to this application. The quality of FAG and INA back-up rollers is ensured by means of high precision machining and sophisticated measurement methods.

Rolling Bearing Mountings for Converters
When filled, large converter vessels weigh several hundred tons. The resulting loads must be supported by the trunnion bearing arrangement. As only slow swivel motions occur, the bearings must feature a high static load carrying capacity. Shock loads, which are an everyday occurrence in converters, must also be accommodated.

Split spherical roller bearings
Costs savings through rapid bearing replacement at difficult to access bearing locationsSplit spherical roller bearings are principally used where the replacement of unsplit spherical roller bearings would require costly additional work, involving the removal of gears or couplings, the dismounting of drives or the dismantling of shaft power trains. The use of split spherical roller bearings reduces the downtime of machinery and plant.

Rolling Bearings for Rolling Mill Applications
For over 100 years the name FAG has been synonymous with high quality rolling bearings of all types. FAG started designing and producing roll neck bearings very early and is well experienced in this field. This publication includes the principles of roll neck bearing selection and calculation. The mounting and maintenance of these bearings are also explained in detail. Other specific questions not covered in this publication should be referred to experts of Schaeffler Group Industrial for advice.

Spherical Roller Bearings E1
Higher cost-effectiveness and operational security with X-lifeFAG spherical roller bearings have proved highly effective wherever high loads are present and there is a need to compensate for shaft deflections and/or misalignment of bearing seats.

Reconditioning and Repair of Rolling Bearings
The characteristics and condition of rolling bearings have a significant influence on the production process. Preventive and condition-based maintenance measures are intended to maintain a consistently high level of plant availability.
