Angular Contact Ball B. FAG 7314 -B-XL-TVP-UA

The FAG 7314 -B-XL-TVP-UA angular contact ball bearing, with a contact angle of 40 degrees and dimensions of 70x150x35 mm, is designed to handle combined loads.

The 7314 -B-XL-TVP-UA angular contact ball bearing is a single-row rolling bearing made from standard bearing steel (100Cr6) with a standard radial clearance. Due to the raceways on the inner and outer rings being offset at an angle to one another, this design is suitable for accommodating simultaneously acting radial and axial forces. In this open bearing, which has no flange or groove on the outer ring, a polyamide cage ensures the even guidance of the rolling elements at operating temperatures ranging from -20 to +120 degrees.

What is the 7314 -B-XL-TVP-UA angular contact ball bearing suitable for?

This single-row bearing is primarily used where axial forces in one direction combine with radial loads. The contact angle of 40 degrees allows for a considerable axial load-carrying capacity along the line of action. Typical applications include gearbox shafts, pump drives and industrial units where precise shaft guidance is required. As a single bearing can only accommodate axial forces in one direction, it is often fitted in conjunction with a second bearing mounted in the opposite direction.

What is the significance of the ‘UA’ universal design when pairing bearings?

The suffix ‘UA’ denotes a universal bearing designed for installation in pairs. If you mount two bearings of this type in an O or X arrangement facing each other, a small amount of axial clearance is established as a result of the design. You do not need any shims or complex fitting work for this. When designing the assembly, bear in mind that the open design requires a targeted supply of lubricant via the housing and must be protected against the ingress of foreign particles.
