How the 2207K model number is decoded
In the 2200-series (ISO 15 dimension series) the leading digits 22 mark a double-row self-aligning ball bearing and the last two digits encode the bore: 2207 carries bore code 07 = 35 mm. Outside diameter 72 mm and width 23 mm follow the ISO 15 general plan. The K suffix denotes a 1:12 tapered bore for mounting on an adapter sleeve or tapered shaft seat; the cylindrical-bore equivalent is 2207. Two rows of balls run on a common sphered outer raceway, allowing the inner ring to pivot and compensate for shaft deflection or housing misalignment.
Typical equipment & failure modes
Common applications
- electric motors and generators
- centrifugal pump shafts
- small gearbox input/output shafts
- conveyor roller and pulley shafts
Known failure patterns
- contamination wear from dust and dirt ingress through the open arrangement
- lubricant starvation when no regreasing interval is maintained
- rolling-contact fatigue spalling after the rated L10 life is exceeded
- cage wear or fracture from sustained vibration or shock loading
Selection pitfalls — read before you substitute
- At a 35 mm bore, a shaft-seat burr or an overtight setscrew can score the thin inner ring of 2207K; check shaft finish and runout (target Ra ≤ 1.6 µm) before pressing it home.
- The 22xx wide-section at 35 mm bore adds load capacity through increased 23 mm width; the wider ring needs a wider housing seat and may reduce limiting speed versus a 1207.
- Tapered-bore 2207K requires a matching adapter sleeve (e.g. H2xx for small bores, H3xx for larger); verify the sleeve bore code matches the 35 mm shaft before ordering.
- The adapter sleeve adds length and a small radial step; check that the housing bore and shaft shoulder clear the sleeve nut and that the withdrawal nut is accessible for future dismounting.
- A 35 mm bore listing showing the right d/D/B but no standard or precision-class reference may be a loose-tolerance import; measure bore/OD spread before fitting it to a machined shaft.
Frequently asked questions
What are the dimensions of a 2207K self-aligning ball bearing?
A 2207K self-aligning ball bearing has a 35 mm bore, 72 mm outer diameter and 23 mm width, per ISO 15 boundary dimensions. The K suffix indicates a 1:12 tapered bore for adapter-sleeve mounting; the cylindrical-bore version is 2207.
How does the 2207 bore code work?
The last two digits of 2207 are bore code 07, giving 07 × 5 = 35 mm bore. The 72 mm outside diameter and 23 mm width follow the ISO 15 diameter series, not the bore code alone.
What does the K suffix mean on 2207K?
The K suffix denotes a 1:12 tapered bore for mounting with an adapter sleeve. The cylindrical-bore equivalent is 2207. Adapter sleeves are sold separately and must match the bore code.
How does the 2200 compare with other self-aligning series at the same 35 mm bore?
The 22xx is the wide light section: 72×23 mm with an 18.5 mm radial section at 35 mm bore, wider than a 1207 for higher load capacity at the cost of speed.
