How the 7307-BECBP model number is decoded

7307 BECBP is SKF's 35 mm-bore single-row angular-contact ball bearing in the 7300 series, nominal 40° (B) contact angle, 35×80×21 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. CB means universally matchable with Normal axial internal clearance: the two side faces are ground so any two units form DB (back-to-back), DF (face-to-face) or DT (tandem) sets without regrinding. Envelope 35×80×21 mm (1.378×3.15×0.827 in), 22.5 mm radial section height, C 41.5 kN, C0 26.5 kN, Pu 1.14 kN.reference speed 11,000 r/min (thermal) and limiting speed 11,000 r/min (mechanical), which coincide for this size, catalogue mass 450 g. The 1.14 kN fatigue load limit is the equivalent-load floor for long-life adjustment; with 41.5/26.5 kN ratings and 450 g mass this execution carries about 1.19 kN of C per millimetre of bore. Load balance: C0 26.5 kN against C 41.5 kN gives a 0.64 ratio, typical of a steep-angle axial-oriented design; Pu 1.14 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 11,000 r/min limiting speed, i.e. a reference-to-limit ratio of 1.00. Universal polymer-cage execution: BECBP is the factory-ground set-mounting version of the basic BEP — both side faces are finish-ground to a controlled stand-off so two units form DB, DF or DT arrangements without shims, while the glass-fibre PA66 ball-centred cage keeps the light, quiet running typical of the P-cage range; CB delivers Normal axial clearance before preload is applied at assembly.

Typical equipment & failure modes

Common applications

  • machine-tool spindles and spindle units
  • servo drives and precision gearboxes
  • gear pumps and screw-type pumps

Known failure patterns

  • fretting at the ground set faces of a universal pair whose clamp torque relaxes
  • raceway spalling from axial overload beyond the single-direction thrust rating
  • raceway smearing under minimum-axial-load starvation at light load and high speed
  • PA66 cage embrittlement inside a preloaded set where heat accumulates faster than in a single mounting
  • raceway staining from water in the lubricant during idle periods
  • fretting corrosion on a loose rotating shaft seat

Selection pitfalls — read before you substitute

  • Keep the load ratio in the SKF design range: Fa/Fr ≥ 1 for this angle; below it the balls unload the contact ellipse and skid, which is why the catalogue insists on a minimum axial load (Fam ≈ A·(n·dm/1000)²) at high speed.
  • Greased positions should fill roughly 25–35 % of the free volume on a 7307-BECBP of this section and route the surplus past the outer ring; overpacking churns the grease and reproduces the thermal preload problem mechanically.
  • 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.
  • Greased positions should fill roughly 25–35 % of the free volume on a 7307-BECBP of this section and route the surplus past the outer ring; overpacking churns the grease and reproduces the thermal preload problem mechanically.
  • The steep 40° angle of 7307-BECBP 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.
  • Universally matchable BECBP bearings arrive ready for set mounting, not preloaded sets: preload results from how the set is clamped, so follow the SKF stand-off-ring and nut-torque procedure.

Frequently asked questions

What are the dimensions and catalogue data of 7307-BECBP?

7307 BECBP measures 35 mm bore × 80 mm OD × 21 mm width (1.378 × 3.15 × 0.827 in), mass about 450 g. SKF 17000 ratings: C 41.5 kN, C0 26.5 kN, Pu 1.14 kN, reference speed 11,000 r/min (thermal) and limiting speed 11,000 r/min (mechanical), which coincide for this size.

What does the BECBP suffix mean?

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. CB means universally matchable with Normal axial internal clearance: the two side faces are ground so any two units form DB (back-to-back), DF (face-to-face) or DT (tandem) sets without regrinding.

Can one 7307-BECBP take thrust in both directions?

No. A single-row angular-contact bearing reacts axial load in one direction; reversing thrust needs a DB/DF matched pair (use a universally matchable CB/GA execution) or a double-row bearing. Under radial load the 40° angle induces an axial force that the arrangement must balance.

What minimum axial load does 7307-BECBP need?

The balls must remain seated: SKF gives Fam ≈ A·(n·dm/1000)² and a load-ratio guideline of Fa/Fr ≥ 1 for the 40° B execution and ≥ 0,55 for the 25° AC execution. Preloaded pairs and spring loading are the usual ways of meeting it at light load and high speed.
