Angular Contact Ball B. FAG 7222 -B-XL-TVP-UA

The FAG 7222 -B-XL-TVP-UA angular contact ball bearing (110x200x38 mm) accommodates high radial loads as well as single-sided axial loads.

The single-row angular contact ball bearing 7222 -B-XL-TVP-UA is designed as an open rolling bearing for demanding applications. Thanks to the asymmetrical raceway arrangement, the design effectively distributes combined loads across the rolling elements. FAG manufactures this model from standard rolling-element steel (100Cr6) in tolerance class P0/PN, corresponding to ABEC 1. The integrated polyamide cage guides the rolling elements with low friction within a temperature range of -20 to +120 degrees Celsius.

What loads can the 7222 -B-XL-TVP-UA angular contact ball bearing accommodate?

The design is specifically optimised to simultaneously accommodate radial forces and unidirectional axial forces. A contact angle of 40 degrees gives the bearing arrangement a high axial load-carrying capacity in the main load direction. Designs subject to combined loads benefit from this geometry. As the design is open and does not require integrated seals, lubrication is supplied externally. The surrounding housing structure provides protection against contamination and retains the lubricant.

How does the UA universal design perform when arranged in pairs?

The suffix ‘UA’ denotes a universal bearing for installation in sets. When two bearings of this type are mounted as a bearing pair in an O or X arrangement, a small amount of axial play is established without the need for shims or compensating elements. This simplifies the assembly of matched shaft-bearing arrangements. The standard radial bearing clearance, together with the cylindrical outer ring without a flange or groove, facilitates a precise fit within the surrounding housing.
