Product Overview: The 7212 Angular Contact Ball Bearing
The 7212 bearing is a high-precision single-row angular contact ball bearing, designed with standard dimensions of 60mm bore diameter, 110mm outer diameter, and 22mm thickness. As a key component in our 7200 Series, this bearing is engineered to accommodate combined (radial and axial) loads simultaneously. Its design features raceways in the inner and outer rings that are displaced relative to each other in the direction of the bearing axis, allowing it to sustain axial loads in one direction. For this reason, these bearings are typically mounted in pairs.
As a specialist supplier of industrial mechanical parts, we ensure our 7212 bearings meet stringent quality standards for high-performance applications. They are essential for machinery requiring high rotational accuracy and speed capabilities. Explore our complete range of Angular Contact Ball Bearings to find the ideal solution for your demanding industrial requirements.
