How the 7007-NTN model number is decoded
From the standard-section 7000 single-row family, 7007 measures 35 mm across the bore, 62 mm over the outer ring and 14 mm across the faces. Two fields make up the code — 70 is the single-row dimension series (standard-section 7000 single-row family) and 07 encodes the 35 mm bore (bore code x 5); with no letter after the digits it is the standard 30 deg contact-angle execution — the 40 deg version carries a B. On speed, the grease limiting speed is 12,000 r/min and the oil rating 16,000 r/min. For a 35 mm shaft with combined load, the practical shortlist is this series, its 7300-series heavier section, and — where thrust reverses — a back-to-back pair rather than a single row. Grease quantity matters as much as grade at 12,000 r/min: fill about a third of the free space and let the bearing purge on first run.
Typical equipment & failure modes
Common applications
- industrial pump and blower impeller shafts
- gearbox input shafts under helical-gear thrust
- electric motor shafts with axial locating duty
- conveyor drive and tension-drum shafts
Known failure patterns
- impact brinelling dents on the 30 deg contact path after a shaft-side hammer blow during mounting, because axial shock travels straight through the contact angle
- thermal runaway from excessive preload: the pair runs hot, grease darkens and the contact ellipse spreads until the raceways smear
- machined-cage land scoring when a high-speed spindle runs past its grease rating and the cage runs dry on its guidance surface
- lubricant starvation scoring at the ball/raceway contact when grease volume or relubrication interval is guessed instead of calculated
- contamination-induced denting — hard particles rolled into the contact ellipse become the initiation points for surface fatigue
Selection pitfalls — read before you substitute
- In this size class the common miss is lubrication interval, not fit — a 35 mm spindle at the catalogue speeds needs a calculated relubrication plan, not a calendar one.
- The standard 30 deg bearing and its B (40 deg) sibling share the envelope; picking between them is a load-direction decision, not a quality upgrade.
- Grease rated for deep-groove motor duty is not automatically right at 12,000 r/min with preload; check the grease speed factor against the catalogue figure.
- A single-row angular contact left loose on the shaft to "help assembly" will fret the seat: the contact angle keeps driving the ring axially under load.
- The C0 of 12.6 kN is a static rating, not a permissible running thrust — sizing continuous axial load from C0 alone is a recurring drawing-office error.
- The 19.4/12.6 kN ratings and 0.95 kN Pu here are NTN Ball and Roller Bearings CAT.No.2203E figures for 7007; internal geometry legitimately differs between manufacturers, so re-verify ratings, contact angle and suffix before substituting another make on a rated drive.
Frequently asked questions
What are the dimensions and catalogue ratings of NTN 7007?
7007 is a single-row angular contact ball bearing to ISO 15: 35 mm bore, 62 mm outside diameter, 14 mm width (1.378 x 2.441 x 0.551 in). From NTN Ball and Roller Bearings CAT.No.2203E: C 19.4 kN, C0 12.6 kN and a 0.95 kN fatigue load limit Pu; the grease limiting speed is 12,000 r/min and the oil rating 16,000 r/min; mass about 180 g.
How is the 7007 designation structured?
70 is the single-row dimension series (standard-section 7000 single-row family); 07 encodes the 35 mm bore (bore code x 5); with no letter after the digits it is the standard 30 deg contact-angle execution — the 40 deg version carries a B. The 62 mm OD and 14 mm width follow the ISO 15 boundary-dimension plan for that series.
Which axial direction does 7007 support?
One 7007 alone takes thrust in one direction only, along its 30 deg contact angle; reversing thrust calls for a second bearing or a factory-matched DB/DF/DT pair (the catalogue right-hand columns list the paired ratings). Radial load is always carried as a combined load through the angled contact.
What lubrication speeds does NTN print for 7007?
Per NTN Ball and Roller Bearings CAT.No.2203E, the grease limiting speed is 12,000 r/min and the oil rating 16,000 r/min. These are catalogue ceilings for a correctly mounted bearing with the stated lubricant; preload, fill quantity, ambient heat and paired arrangements all move the real limit.
What should be checked before substituting another make for 7007?
The 35/62/14 mm envelope is ISO 15 interchangeable, but internal geometry — contact angle, osculation, cage and shoulder details — is maker-specific. Re-verify C 19.4 kN / C0 12.6 kN, the speed figures, contact angle and suffix meaning against the donor catalogue before swapping on a rated drive.
