Angular Contact Ball B. FAG 7211 -B-XL-TVP-UA

The FAG 7211 -B-XL-TVP-UA angular contact ball bearing, with its 40-degree contact angle, accommodates high unilateral axial forces with main dimensions of 55 × 100 × 21 mm.

Single-row angular contact ball bearings of this design transmit combined loads consisting of radial and axial forces specifically via the angularly offset raceways. Owing to the 40-degree contact angle, this design is specifically intended for shaft guides where axial guiding forces act in one direction. Manufactured from standard rolling bearing steel 100Cr6 and featuring an open design, these bearings allow for direct lubrication via the structure’s lubrication system.

In which installation situations is the angular contact ball bearing 7211 -B-XL-TVP-UA used?

This rolling bearing accommodates load conditions in which radial loads act on the shaft simultaneously with significant axial forces in one direction. Thanks to its universal design for paired arrangement, the unit can be fitted in sets in an O or X configuration to accommodate opposing axial forces from both directions. This pre-defined design eliminates the need for adjustment during bearing installation.

What is the function of the polyamide cage and the UA universal design?

The integrated polyamide cage guides the rolling elements whilst being lightweight and is suitable for operating temperatures ranging from –20 to +120 degrees. The suffix ‘UA’ denotes a universal design for paired installation: If two bearings are mounted in an O or X configuration, the bearing set has a specified low axial clearance. This feature facilitates installation and helps to reduce thermally induced stresses in the bearing seat.
