Angular Contact Ball B. FAG 7205 -B-XL-TVP

The 7205 -B-XL-TVP angular contact ball bearing from FAG Wälzlager, with dimensions of 25x52x15 mm, is designed for combined radial and axial loads.

This single-row angular contact ball bearing 7205 -B-XL-TVP accommodates radial loads as well as axial forces in one direction. Thanks to the contact angle of 40 degrees, the design distributes the acting forces obliquely across the rolling elements. The manufacturer, FAG Wälzlager, produces the rings from standard roller bearing steel (100Cr6). The open design, without a flange or groove on the outer ring, allows for flexible lubricant supply via the surrounding housing system.

What is the 7205 -B-XL-TVP angular contact ball bearing suitable for in operation?

Typical applications for this rolling bearing include shaft mountings where, in addition to radial forces, unidirectional axial forces are also present. As a single bearing can only accommodate axial loads in one direction, it is often fitted in combination with a second, oppositely mounted angular contact ball bearing. The standard radial clearance and the tolerance class P0/PN (ABEC 1) meet the usual requirements in general mechanical engineering.

What is the function of the polyamide cage in this angular contact ball bearing?

The designation TVP indicates a polyamide cage which guides the balls and keeps rolling resistance low. This material dampens vibrations and reduces noise during rotation. The component can be used within a temperature range of -20 to +120 degrees. As the bearing is of an open design, the bearing housing requires an external seal to protect against contamination, as well as a suitable lubrication supply.
