Product Overview: The 5301 Double-Row Angular Contact Ball Bearing
The 5301 bearing is a high-performance, double-row angular contact ball bearing with dimensions of 12x37x19mm. As a key component in our 5300 Series, this bearing is engineered to accommodate combined radial and axial loads in both directions, making it exceptionally versatile. Its design is similar to two single-row angular contact bearings arranged back-to-back, but with a more compact, single-piece construction. This configuration provides a high degree of stiffness and is capable of handling tilting moments, making it ideal for applications requiring rigid support.
Manufactured to precise industry standards, the 5301 is a reliable solution for a wide range of machinery where both load types and operational rigidity are critical factors. Explore our full range of Angular Contact Ball Bearings to find the perfect component for your mechanical application.
