Product Overview: The 5204 Double Row Angular Contact Ball Bearing
The 5204 bearing is a high-capacity component from our 5200 Series of Angular Contact Ball Bearings. With its principal dimensions of 20mm Bore Diameter, 47mm Outer Diameter, and 20.6mm Thickness, this bearing is engineered to handle combined radial and axial loads in both directions. Its double row design provides a high degree of stiffness and is equivalent to two single row angular contact bearings arranged back-to-back, but within a more compact axial space.
As a leading supplier of industrial components, we ensure our 5204 bearings meet stringent quality standards for reliable and efficient operation. This bearing is an excellent choice for applications requiring rigid shaft support and the ability to manage complex load conditions, making it a staple in various industrial machinery. Explore our complete range of angular contact ball bearings to find the ideal solution for your specific needs.
Key Features of the 5204 Bearing
