How the 7310-BECBY model number is decoded

7310 BECBY is SKF's 50 mm-bore single-row angular-contact ball bearing in the 7300 series, nominal 40° (B) contact angle, 50×110×27 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. stamped brass cage, ball-centred (suffix Y) — lighter than the machined M cage but brass rather than polymer. 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. BECBY combines the optimized 40° geometry with CB universal clearance and a stamped brass Y cage. Envelope 50×110×27 mm (1.969×4.331×1.063 in), 30.0 mm radial section height, C 78 kN, C0 56 kN, Pu 2.36 kN.reference speed 7,500 r/min (thermal) and limiting speed 8,000 r/min (mechanical), catalogue mass 1150 g. Load balance: C0 56 kN against C 78 kN gives a 0.72 ratio, typical of a steep-angle axial-oriented design; Pu 2.36 kN enters the SKF adjusted-life equation rather than the basic rating life. Mass and section check: 1150 g inside the 50×110×27 mm outline leaves a 30.0 mm radial section, and the 56 kN static rating is 0.72× the dynamic rating — plan static safety and minimum load against those numbers rather than against sister executions. Bore-to-OD planning: OD 110 over bore 50 is a 2.20× step for this size, and the 27 mm width gives a bore/width ratio of 1.85; use these ratios when housing space around the 50 mm shaft is the first constraint. Cage detail specific to this order number: the Y cage is stamped from brass strip into ball pockets rather than machined from solid, giving a lighter cage assembly and lower centrifugal mass than the M execution; it remains brass (temperature and oil-additive tolerant, unlike PA66) but is the formed-cage design, and the machined-brass BECBM order number remains the choice for severe shock or marginal lubrication.

Typical equipment & failure modes

Selection pitfalls — read before you substitute

• Preload the set against a calculated stand-off dimension — the ground faces of BECBY establish it, but locknut torque, sleeve crush and housing-face squareness each consume part of the allowance.
• 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.
• At 50 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.
• Preload the set against a calculated stand-off dimension — the ground faces of BECBY establish it, but locknut torque, sleeve crush and housing-face squareness each consume part of the allowance.
• The steep 40° angle of 7310-BECBY 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 BECBY 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.
