Angular contact ball bearings

Refer to Super-precision bearings.

These bearings have very thin rings and a constant cross-sectional height within a particular series, irrespective of the bearing size. They are characterized by a low weight and high stiffness. SKF fixed section bearings have inch sizes and are available open or sealed in up to eight different cross-sectional heights. The designs include:

single row angular contact ball bearings (fig. 5)

four-point contact ball bearings (fig. 6)

Hub bearing units (HBU) for the automotive industry are based on double row angular contact ball bearings (fig. 7, fig. 8, fig. 9). They have made an appreciable contribution to the achievement of more compact weight-saving designs, simplified assembly and enhanced reliability.

Detailed information about these products and variants for industrial applications can be supplied on request.
