Angular Contact Ball B. FAG 7203 -B-XL-TVP-UA

The FAG 7203 -B-XL-TVP-UA angular contact ball bearing measures 17 × 40 × 12 mm and, thanks to its 40-degree contact angle, can accommodate combined radial and single-direction axial loads.

The 7203 -B-XL-TVP-UA is a single-row rolling bearing made from standard bearing steel (100Cr6) with a bore of 17 mm, an outer diameter of 40 mm and a width of 12 mm. Thanks to its contact angle of 40 degrees, this component is particularly suitable for combined forces where, in addition to radial forces, significant axial forces act in one direction. The open-type design allows for lubrication via the surrounding system, whilst the integrated polyamide cage ensures smooth guidance of the rolling elements.

What is the 7203 -B-XL-TVP-UA angular contact ball bearing suitable for?

This single-row bearing is used wherever designs need to accommodate high axial forces in one direction as well as radial loads simultaneously. Manufactured to tolerance class P0/PN (ABEC 1), it is suitable for precision-guided shaft bearings in general mechanical engineering. The bearing is designed for a temperature range of -20 to +120 degrees.

What does the UA designation mean for installation in pairs?

The suffix ‘UA’ denotes a universal bearing suitable for installation in pairs. If you arrange two of these angular contact ball bearings in an O or X configuration, the bearing pair will have a deliberately low axial clearance without the need for re-grinding the rings. As a result, the pair supports axial forces in both directions. Check the environmental seal before assembly, as the open bearing has no inherent protection against contamination.
