Looking for a robust ball bearing to support static loads of up to 53kN and dynamic loads of up to 75kN? This angular contact ball bearing from SKF can support a high axial load combined with a radial load. The sealed ends keep out contamination to ensure the unit runs efficiently and to extend its working life, with no relubrication required. A parallel bore means it can be mounted directly onto the shaft without an adaptor sleeve.

• Steel construction provides strength and resists corrosion
• Double row of bearings offers extra weight-bearing capacity
• Non-stop contact of the balls to both rings means it has a much higher speed than radial bearings

• Wind energy
• Steel mills
• Materials handling

An angular contact ball bearing consists of inner and outer raceways that are displaced relative to each other. Forces are transmitted from one raceway to another along a specific contact angle.

No, angular contact bearings can accept axial loads in one direction only, so they need to be mounted against a second, conventional bearing for applications operating in both directions.
