Angular Contact Ball B. SKF 7320 BECBM

The SKF 7320 BECBM angular contact ball bearing, with a 100 mm bore and a 40-degree contact angle, can accommodate high combined loads.

This single-row angular contact ball bearing, type 7320 BECBM, is manufactured by SKF Rolling Bearings and is designed as an open version without sealing rings. The bearing has an internal diameter of 100 mm, an external diameter of 215 mm and a width of 47 mm. Thanks to the standard 100Cr6 bearing steel and its manufacture to the SKF Explorer performance class, the unit can cope with demanding operating conditions in industrial bearing arrangements.

What is the 7320 BECBM angular contact ball bearing suitable for in operation?

The bearing accommodates radial loads as well as unilateral axial forces. Owing to the steep contact angle of 40 degrees, the design transmits considerable axial forces along the line of action. Its primary applications are shaft mountings subject to high combined loads, where precise axial guidance accuracy is required. The 7320 BECBM angular contact ball bearing is designed for continuous thermal operation within a range of –20 to +150 degrees.

What are the advantages of the brass cage and universal arrangement?

The integrated brass cage guides the rolling elements precisely, even at higher speeds or under vibration loads. Furthermore, this design offers increased accuracy with a dimensional tolerance of P6 and a running tolerance of P5. The CB version allows for installation in pairs: in an O or X arrangement, the bearing set provides a defined, minimal axial clearance. This eliminates the need for manual fitting of spacer rings when assembling bearing pairs.
