What is the equivalent of a 22208 bearing?

The 22208 is a 40×80×23mm spherical roller bearing with verified equivalents across multiple brands: FAG 22208-E1-XL, SKF 22208 E, NTN 22208EMD1, Timken 22208EM. All equivalents share the same bore, outer diameter, width, and load ratings.

What are the dimensions of a 22208 bearing?

The 22208 bearing has a bore diameter of 40mm, outer diameter of 80mm, and width of 23mm. It has a dynamic load rating of 98.5 kN, static load rating of 91.5 kN, and weighs 530g. Maximum speed with grease lubrication is 8,000 rpm.

Can I replace a NSK 22208 with a FAG equivalent?

Yes. NSK and FAG bearings with the same ISO designation are dimensionally interchangeable. The 22208 (40×80×23mm) 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.
