Product Overview: The 7016 Angular Contact Ball Bearing
The 7016 Angular Contact Ball Bearing is a high-precision component engineered to support combined (axial and radial) loads with exceptional accuracy. As part of our 7000 Series, this bearing is designed with a specific contact angle that allows it to sustain significant axial loads in one direction. Its single-row construction is ideal for applications demanding high rotational speeds and superior rigidity, making it a vital part of advanced machinery. The internal design ensures smooth, low-friction operation, which is critical for high-performance systems.
Manufactured to precise industry standards with dimensions of 80mm Bore Diameter, 125mm Outer Diameter, and 22mm Thickness, the 7016 bearing is a reliable choice for demanding industrial environments. These bearings are typically mounted in pairs to handle axial loads in both directions and provide rigid shaft support.
