Angular Contact Ball B. FAG 7208 -B-XL-TVP-UA

The FAG 7208 -B-XL-TVP-UA angular contact ball bearing (40x80x18 mm) accommodates high unilateral axial and radial forces and is suitable for general-purpose set-up installations.

The 7208 -B-XL-TVP-UA angular contact ball bearing is a single-row rolling bearing designed for demanding bearing arrangements subject to combined loads. Thanks to its contact angle of 40 degrees, this open bearing transmits high axial forces in one direction whilst simultaneously withstanding radial loads. Manufactured from standard roller bearing steel 100Cr6 with dimensions of 40 mm bore, 80 mm outer diameter and 18 mm width, this FAG roller bearing is designed for industrial maintenance and mechanical engineering applications. The integrated polyamide cage ensures quiet operation.

What is the 7208 -B-XL-TVP-UA angular contact ball bearing suitable for?

Design engineers and maintenance technicians primarily use this design where shafts are subjected to both axial guiding forces and radial loads simultaneously. Typical applications include bearing arrangements with combined loads and defined guiding functions. As this is an open bearing without an integrated seal, it can be flexibly integrated into oil- or grease-lubricated housings. For reliable operation, a continuous supply of lubricant via the machine system is required, tailored to the temperature range of -20 to +120 degrees Celsius.

What does the suffix ‘UA’ mean for the 7208 angular contact ball bearing?

The abbreviation UA denotes a universal design for installation in pairs. When arranged in an O or X configuration, the bearing pair has a defined, low axial clearance. This eliminates the need for time-consuming adjustment of the bearing clearance during assembly. In conjunction with the 40-degree contact angle, the component effectively supports axial loads. When designing the system, the tolerance class P0/PN (corresponding to ABEC 1) and the temperature range of the TVP polyamide cage must be taken into account.
