Angular Contact Ball B. FAG 7217 -B-XL-TVP-UA

The FAG 7217 -B-XL-TVP-UA angular contact ball bearing, with a bore diameter of 85 mm and a 40-degree contact angle, accommodates high radial and single-direction axial loads.

The 7217 -B-XL-TVP-UA angular contact ball bearing from FAG Rolling Bearings is designed as a single-row radial rolling bearing for combined loads. Thanks to its dimensions – an 85 mm inner diameter, 150 mm outer diameter and 28 mm width – this open bearing is suitable for demanding industrial applications. It is manufactured from standard 100Cr6 rolling-element bearing steel, which gives the raceways high dimensional stability. As no seals are integrated, the lubricant reaches the rolling elements and raceways unimpeded. The polyamide cage used ensures smooth running of the rolling elements.

What is the 7217 -B-XL-TVP-UA angular contact ball bearing suitable for in operation?

This roller bearing is particularly suitable for bearing arrangements where, in addition to radial forces, significant axial loads act in one direction. Thanks to the contact angle of 40 degrees, the design effectively supports axial forces. Such conditions typically arise when guiding rotating shafts subject to axial loads acting in one direction. The bearing covers a temperature range from –20 to +120 degrees and complies with the specifications of the standard tolerance class P0/PN.

What does the UA designation mean in a paired arrangement?

The UA designation indicates a universal design for installation in pairs. When two of these angular contact ball bearings are mounted in an O or X arrangement, the bearing pair has minimal axial play. This simplifies installation, as it eliminates the need for time-consuming manual adjustment. When designing the assembly, ensure that the open bearing is protected against the ingress of dirt and connected to a suitable lubrication system. The polyamide cage retains its properties within the specified temperature range.
