Product Overview: The 7203 Angular Contact Ball Bearing
The 7203 bearing is a high-performance component within our extensive 7200 Series Angular Contact Ball Bearings. With precise dimensions of 17mm bore, 40mm outer diameter, and 12mm thickness, this bearing is engineered to effectively accommodate combined loads – simultaneously supporting both radial and axial forces. Its design, featuring raceways that are offset relative to each other in the direction of the bearing axis, allows it to take axial loads in one direction only. For applications requiring axial load support in both directions, two 7203 bearings are typically mounted in an opposed arrangement.
As a trusted supplier of industrial bearings and mechanical parts, we ensure that our 7203 bearings meet stringent industry standards for reliability and durability. This type of bearing is crucial for machinery demanding high rotational speeds, excellent running accuracy, and robust load support. Explore our full selection of angular contact ball bearings to find the optimal solution for your industrial equipment's needs.
