Angular Contact Ball B. SKF 7305 BEP

The SKF 7305 BEP angular contact ball bearing (25x62x17 mm) accommodates combined radial and single-direction axial loads with a contact angle of 40 degrees.

The 7305 BEP angular contact ball bearing is a single-row rolling bearing made from standard bearing steel (100Cr6) with a bore of 25 mm, an outer diameter of 62 mm and a width of 17 mm. Due to the specific arrangement of the raceways, this bearing accommodates not only radial forces but also axial forces in one direction. The manufacturer, SKF, produces this version with standard radial clearance and in tolerance class P0/PN or ABEC 1. It is used wherever a defined, one-sided axial shaft guidance is required.

What is the 7305 BEP angular contact ball bearing with a 40-degree contact angle suitable for?

This single-row bearing is suitable for applications involving combined radial and axial loads, where axial forces must be specifically supported in one direction. The steep contact angle of 40 degrees gives the component a high axial load-carrying capacity. Suitable applications include industrial shaft bearings with a clearly defined load direction. As this is an open bearing without an integrated seal, it can be flexibly lubricated via an external lubrication system or an oil bath.

What properties does the polyamide cage in the 7305 BEP angular contact ball bearing offer?

The built-in polyamide cage guides the rolling elements with minimal vibration and contributes to quiet operation. Polyamide-based materials are characterised by their low weight, which reduces inertial forces during bearing operation. This design is rated for operating temperatures ranging from -20 to +120 degrees. When designing the application, ensure that the choice of lubricant is suited to this temperature range. For applications with purely axial loads in opposite directions, a second, oppositely mounted bearing is required.
