Angular Contact Ball B. FAG 7324 -B-MP-UA

The FAG 7324 -B-MP-UA angular contact ball bearing, with a 120 mm bore and a 40-degree contact angle, can accommodate high radial and unilateral axial forces.

The FAG 7324 -B-MP-UA single-row angular contact ball bearing is designed for demanding industrial applications involving combined loads. Thanks to its angularly arranged raceways, this rolling bearing transmits axial forces specifically in one direction. Manufactured from standard rolling-element bearing steel 100Cr6 and fitted with a guided brass cage, the open version covers a temperature range from –20 to +200 degrees. With key dimensions of 120 mm bore diameter, 260 mm outer diameter and 55 mm width, the component fits into standardised housing seats.

What is the 7324 -B-MP-UA angular contact ball bearing suitable for?

This angular contact ball bearing is primarily used where heavy shafts need to be supported whilst simultaneously absorbing high axial loads. The increased contact angle of 40 degrees gives the bearing arrangement a high axial load-carrying capacity. Typical applications include bearing arrangements with combined loads where defined axial guidance of the shaft is required. As this is an open bearing without integrated seals, lubrication is provided by the surrounding unit, for example via oil bath or circulation lubrication with a continuous oil supply.

What does the universal design UA with a brass cage mean?

The suffix ‘UA’ denotes a universal bearing suitable for installation in pairs. When mounted in pairs in an O or X arrangement, a small amount of axial clearance is automatically established. You can position two bearings against each other without shims to accommodate axial forces in both directions. The solid brass cage (MP) guides the rolling elements reliably, even under thermal stress or when subjected to vibrations. The bearings are manufactured to tolerance class P0/PN or ABEC 1 with standard radial clearance.
