Angular Contact Ball B. FAG 7211 -B-XL-TVP-P5-UO

The FAG 7211 -B-XL-TVP-P5-UO angular contact ball bearing, measuring 55x100x21 mm, offers precise guidance and a play-free fit for demanding shaft mountings.

The 7211 -B-XL-TVP-P5-UO angular contact ball bearing is a single-row rolling bearing from FAG designed for combined loads. With dimensions of 55 mm bore, 100 mm outer diameter and 21 mm width, it accommodates radial and unilateral axial forces. Thanks to the contact angle of 40 degrees, the design, made from standard roller bearing steel (100Cr6), is specifically suited to higher axial forces. The open component features a polyamide cage and operates within a temperature range of -20 to +120 degrees.

What is the 7211 -B-XL-TVP-P5-UO angular contact ball bearing suitable for?

Typical applications include bearing arrangements subject to combined radial and axial loads, where precise shaft guidance and high running accuracy are required. As a single-row angular contact ball bearing can only accommodate axial loads in one direction, it is usually fitted in conjunction with a mating bearing. The contact angle of 40 degrees helps to accommodate stable axial forces along the line of action. The open design allows lubrication via the machine’s existing oil or grease circuit.

What do tolerance class P5 and the suffix UO mean for installation?

The bearing complies with the enhanced tolerance class P5 (corresponding to ABEC 5) and therefore has tighter form and running tolerances than standard bearings. This precision ensures low-vibration operation at demanding speeds. The suffix UO denotes a universal design for installation in pairs: If you combine two bearings in an O or X arrangement, this creates a play-free bearing set without the need for additional shims. When designing the assembly, ensure the environment is clean, as the open bearing has no integrated protection against foreign particles.
