What are the dimensions of this bearing?

The bearing has a 17 mm bore diameter, a 40 mm outer diameter, and a 12 mm width.

What types of loads can this angular contact ball bearing support?

It is designed to accommodate combined radial loads and unilateral axial loads acting in one direction.

What does the BEP suffix stand for in SKF bearings?

BE indicates an optimized internal design with a 40° contact angle, and P designates a glass fibre reinforced polyamide cage.

Is the SKF 7203 BEP bearing sealed?

No, this is an open bearing without integrated seals or shields.

Is this bearing suitable for high-speed operation?

Yes, its lightweight polymer cage minimizes friction, allowing limiting speeds up to 20 000 r/min.

Reliable combined loads with Skf 7203 BEP

Practical benefits

Simultaneous radial and axial support: The 40° contact angle allows you to handle high radial and unilateral axial forces simultaneously in demanding machinery.
High speeds with reduced friction: The lightweight polyamide cage minimizes heat and friction so you achieve smooth operation at high rotational speeds.
Compact fit for tight housings: With exact 17 x 40 x 12 mm dimensions, you easily fit this bearing onto matching shafts and assemblies.

In a nutshell

The right choise for

With the Skf 7203 BEP, you equip your machinery with a single row angular contact ball bearing engineered to handle heavy radial forces and unilateral axial thrust simultaneously. Featuring a 40° contact angle and a lightweight glass fibre reinforced polyamide cage, it minimizes friction and operating noise while supporting speeds up to 20000 r/min. Its precise 17 x 40 x 12 mm dimensions and unsealed, open design ensure accurate shaft positioning and smooth integration in pumps, compressors, and high-demand rotating assemblies.

Product description

These single row angular contact ball bearings can accommodate radial and axial loads acting simultaneously, where the axial load acts in one direction only. They can operate at high speeds and, depending on the variant, even very high speeds. They are more suitable than deep groove ball bearings for supporting large axial forces acting in one direction.

High-speed capability
Accommodate relatively high radial loads and large unilateral axial loads
