Product Overview: The 5217 Double Row Angular Contact Ball Bearing
The 5217 bearing is a high-capacity component from our 5200 Series of Angular Contact Ball Bearings. With its principal dimensions of 85x150x49.2mm, this bearing is engineered with two rows of balls in a back-to-back arrangement. This design allows it to accommodate high radial loads as well as axial loads in both directions, providing a high degree of rigidity to the bearing arrangement. It functions similarly to two single-row angular contact bearings but offers a more compact and space-saving solution.
As a premier supplier of industrial mechanical parts, we ensure our 5217 bearings meet rigorous industry standards for performance and durability. They are an excellent choice for applications requiring robust support for combined loads and precise shaft guidance, making them a staple in heavy-duty machinery across various sectors.
Key Features of the 5217 Bearing
- Double Row Design: Provides high load-carrying capacity in a compact design, accommodating both radial and bidirectional axial loads.
- High Rigidity: The back-to-back arrangement offers excellent stiffness, making it ideal for applications where shaft deflection must be minimized.
- Combined Load Capability: Engineered to handle a combination of radial and axial forces simultaneously.
