Angular Contact Ball B. FAG 7303 -B-XL-TVP

The FAG 7303 -B-XL-TVP angular contact ball bearing, with dimensions of 17x47x14 mm, provides precise guidance for combined radial and single-direction axial loads.

This single-row angular contact ball bearing 7303 -B-XL-TVP is suitable for demanding bearing arrangements in general mechanical engineering. Thanks to its contact angle of 40 degrees, the design accommodates not only radial forces but also axial loads in one direction. The component is made from standard rolling-element bearing steel (100Cr6) and operates within the standard tolerance class P0/PN (ABEC 1). As an open rolling bearing, this design can be flexibly integrated into existing lubrication systems.

What is the 7303 -B-XL-TVP angular contact ball bearing suitable for in operation?

Design engineers use this bearing for combined loads where radial guidance alone is insufficient. Typical applications include bearing arrangements subject to simultaneous radial and single-sided axial loads. As a single bearing can only accommodate axial forces in one direction, in many designs it is fitted in pairs or as a counter-bearing arrangement. The outer ring, which has no groove or flange, fits flush into cylindrical housing bores.

What characteristics does the TVP polyamide cage offer when selecting a bearing?

The suffix TVP denotes a solid polyamide cage. This material reduces the component weight and ensures elastic guidance of the rolling elements, which keeps noise levels low during operation. The permissible temperature range is from –20 to +120 degrees Celsius. As this is an unsealed bearing with standard radial clearance, a suitable external housing seal and a continuous supply of lubricant must be provided.
