What is the equivalent of a 1204-TVH bearing?

The 1204-TVH is a 20×47×14mm self-aligning ball bearing with verified equivalents across multiple brands: FAG 1204-TVH, NSK 1204, NTN 1204, Timken 1204. All equivalents share the same bore, outer diameter, width, and load ratings.

What are the dimensions of a 1204-TVH bearing?

The 1204-TVH bearing has a bore diameter of 20mm, outer diameter of 47mm, and width of 14mm. It has a dynamic load rating of 9.36 kN, static load rating of 3.65 kN, and weighs 106g. Maximum speed with grease lubrication is 12,000 rpm.

Can I replace a SKF 1204-TVH with a FAG equivalent?

Yes. SKF and FAG bearings with the same ISO designation are dimensionally interchangeable. The 1204-TVH (20×47×14mm) can be replaced with the equivalent FAG part number as long as the seal type (open) and clearance class (CN) match. Always verify load ratings and speed limits for your specific application.
