Angular Contact Ball B. SKF 7220 BECBP

The SKF 7220 BECBP single-row angular contact ball bearing with a 100 mm bore accommodates combined radial and axial loads at a 40-degree contact angle.

The SKF 7220 BECBP angular contact ball bearing is an open, single-row rolling bearing made from standard bearing steel (100Cr6) in the Explorer performance class. With key dimensions of 100 mm inner diameter, 180 mm outer diameter and 34 mm width, the component transmits simultaneously occurring radial and axial forces. The forces are applied at an angle to the radial plane. As an open bearing, the bearing assembly can be integrated into existing lubrication circuits.

What is the 7220 BECBP angular contact ball bearing suitable for in operation?

This rolling bearing is used where unidirectional axial forces occur in conjunction with radial forces. Typical applications can be found in industrial bearing arrangements subject to combined loads. Thanks to its universal design, the bearing pair is suitable for defined mounting with low axial clearance when fitted in a mirror-image O or X arrangement. The permissible temperature range is from -20 to +120 degrees.

What are the key features of the polyamide cage and the P6/P5 precision?

The BECBP version features a polyamide cage that guides the rolling elements with minimal vibration. A nominal contact angle of 40 degrees gives the component a high axial load-carrying capacity in one direction. Furthermore, the manufacturing process combines dimensional accuracy to tolerance class P6 with enhanced running accuracy of class P5. As an open design, the bearing location requires a clean installation environment and external sealing of the housing.
