The X-life FAG E1 spherical roller thrust bearings boast significant improvements, including increased load ratings (static +10%, dynamic +35%), limiting speeds (+50%) and fatigue limiting load (+70%). Noteworthy, is the bearing’s 170% increase in bearing rating life.
Thus, operating life is said to have “more than doubled under the same loads, while units are suitable for high speed applications due to lower friction levels, improved guidance and vibration characteristics due to high running accuracy, less wear due to optimised lubricant film formation, and the lubricant is subjected to less strain due to lower bearing temperatures,” Schaeffler explained.

Schaeffler has launched its new premium grade X-life axial spherical roller bearings ‘offering more than double the life,’ it said schaeffler
