Angular Contact Ball B. FAG 7332 -B-MP

The FAG 7332 -B-MP single-row angular contact ball bearing, measuring 160 x 340 x 68 mm, reliably withstands high radial loads and unilateral axial forces.

The 7332 -B-MP angular contact ball bearing belongs to the group of radial rolling bearings and precisely supports shafts with a diameter of 160 mm. Thanks to its angularly offset raceways, this unit is suitable for combined loads where radial forces occur simultaneously with axial forces in one direction. Manufactured from standard rolling-element bearing steel (100Cr6), the bearing offers dimensionally stable running characteristics. As an open design without sealing rings, the bearing is designed for operation in a lubricated housing.

In which installation situations is the 7332 -B-MP angular contact ball bearing used?

Bearings of this size transmit high radial forces as well as single-direction axial forces in demanding shaft mountings. As single-row angular contact ball bearings, by design, can only accommodate axial forces in one direction, they are usually mounted in a paired arrangement with a second bearing. The wide operating temperature range of –20 to +200 degrees allows for use in industrial environments subject to high thermal loads with a continuous supply of lubricant.

What is the function of the brass cage and the 40-degree contact angle?

The nominal contact angle of 40 degrees ensures that the bearing can accommodate considerable axial loads in relation to the radial load. The steeper this angle, the greater the load-carrying capacity of the design in response to axial thrust. The solid brass cage guides the balls with low friction and is resistant to vibrations, shocks and lubricant additives. In conjunction with the standard radial bearing clearance and tolerance class P0/PN (ABEC 1), the component complies with current industry standards for standard fits.
