How the 7207-BE-2RZP model number is decoded

7207 BE-2RZP is SKF's 35 mm-bore single-row angular-contact ball bearing in the 7200 series, nominal 40° (B) contact angle, 35×72×17 mm to the ISO dimension plan. 40° contact angle (suffix B): the steep standard single-row angle, giving the highest axial capacity at the cost of speed, with a recommended load ratio Fa/Fr ≥ 1. E marks the optimized internal design with an enhanced ball complement and race geometry. glass-fibre reinforced PA66 cage, ball-centred (suffix P), with a 120 °C continuous-temperature ceiling. -2RZ marks non-contact NBR seals on both sides riding in recessed grooves: they keep contamination and the standard grease fill in without lip drag, and P again denotes the PA66 cage. Envelope 35×72×17 mm (1.378×2.835×0.669 in), 18.5 mm radial section height, C 29.1 kN, C0 19 kN, Pu 0.815 kN.reference speed 11,000 r/min (thermal) and limiting speed 9,000 r/min (mechanical), catalogue mass 350 g. Selection figures for 7207 BE-2RZP: the static-to-dynamic ratio C0/C is 0.65, Pu 0.815 kN is about 3 % of C, and catalogue mass works out to roughly 10 g per millimetre of bore. Load balance: C0 19 kN against C 29.1 kN gives a 0.65 ratio, typical of a steep-angle axial-oriented design; Pu 0.815 kN enters the SKF adjusted-life equation rather than the basic rating life. Speed-ratio note for this exact unit: the reference speed is 11,000 r/min against a 9,000 r/min limiting speed, i.e. a reference-to-limit ratio of 1.22. Sealing note: the two non-contact NBR -2RZ seals run in recessed grooves without touching the inner ring, so drag and speed loss stay small while the standard grease fill is retained and coarse dust is excluded; they are not lip-contact seals, so pressure washing and fine slurry still require external housing seals. The uncapped BECBP/BEP executions are the open counterparts.

Typical equipment & failure modes

Selection pitfalls — read before you substitute

• DB pairs give the highest moment stiffness, DF pairs tolerate misalignment and thermal expansion better, DT shares heavy one-direction thrust; choose from the shaft thermal calculation rather than by habit.

• At 35 mm bore the k5 seat assumes a steel shaft and housing; aluminium housings grow faster with temperature, so re-check the outer-ring setting when the case is non-ferrous.
• Mount by induction-heating the inner ring to max 120 °C — the PA66 cage sets the ceiling, not the steel; driving the bearing home through the outer ring or balls brinells the asymmetric raceway.
• The steep 40° angle of 7207-BE-2RZP favours thrust-heavy combined loads; for a predominantly radial high-speed position the 25° ACCBM execution of the same size is the alternative order number.
• The non-contact -2RZ seals of 7207-BE-2RZP add little drag but are not contact seals; in wet or fine-dust duty retain external sealing at the housing.
