Angular Contact Ball B. SKF 7310 BECBP

The SKF 7310 BECBP angular contact ball bearing, with a 50 mm bore and a 40-degree contact angle, handles combined loads whilst maintaining high running accuracy.

This single-row angular contact ball bearing 7310 BECBP, part of the SKF Explorer performance class, simultaneously accommodates high radial forces and unidirectional axial forces. Thanks to the asymmetrical design of the raceways in the inner and outer rings, the bearing efficiently transfers the forces acting on it via the rolling elements. The design, made from standard rolling-element bearing steel (100Cr6) with a 50 mm cylindrical bore and an outer diameter of 110 mm, is intended for demanding bearing arrangements.

What is the 7310 BECBP angular contact ball bearing suitable for in operation?

The installation of this open bearing is primarily recommended in bearing arrangements where shafts must be guided axially with high precision at higher speeds. As a single-row angular contact ball bearing can only accommodate axial forces in one direction, it is often installed as a pair of bearings mounted opposite each other. The universal design is optimised for installation in pairs and features a low, defined axial clearance in an O or X arrangement.

What advantages do the 40-degree contact angle and the polyamide cage offer?

The nominal contact angle of 40 degrees gives the component geometry a high axial load-carrying capacity. Dimensional accuracy to tolerance class P6, as well as the even tighter running accuracy to tolerance class P5, ensure low-vibration concentricity within the housing. The integrated polyamide cage guides the rolling elements whilst being lightweight and reduces friction during operation. At operating temperatures between –20 and +120 degrees, the open component operates with external oil or grease lubrication.
