FAG Bearings in Houston, Texas

TSB Industrial Supply sources FAG bearings for Houston-area plants, gearbox rebuilders and motor shops — including the spherical and cylindrical roller bearings FAG is widely specified for in heavy equipment.

FAG is a German brand that is part of the Schaeffler Group alongside INA. FAG numbers often carry suffixes like E1 (enhanced internal design), M (machined brass cage), K (tapered bore) and C3. Because FAG and INA share catalogs, older equipment may list either name for related parts.

Common FAG bearing types we source

  • • Spherical roller bearings (E1, E1-K, MB cage versions)
  • • Cylindrical roller bearings (NU, NJ, NUP — E-TVP2, M1)
  • • Deep groove ball bearings (6000–6300, 2RSR and 2ZR)
  • • Angular contact ball bearings (7200 B, 7300 B; MP brass cages)
  • • Tapered roller bearings (metric 30200, 32200 series)
  • • Split plummer block housings and adapter sleeves

Where FAG bearings are often used

Gearboxes

Cylindrical and spherical roller bearings on intermediate and output shafts.

Vibrating equipment

Spherical roller bearings with reinforced cages.

Paper and process lines

Tapered-bore spherical bearings on adapter sleeves.

Typical uses only. Confirm the correct bearing for your equipment with the OEM specification.

Don't have the exact part number?

FAG uses 2RSR for seals and 2ZR for shields — different from SKF's 2RS1/2Z. If the old bearing reads 22216-E1-K-C3, every segment matters: K means tapered bore, so a straight-bore replacement will not fit the sleeve.

On the quote form you can send any of these: manufacturer part number, the number on the existing bearing, dimensions (bore × OD × width), equipment information, photos, or a full parts list.
