| Code Segment | Technical Meaning |
|---|---|
| 7224 | Standard bore diameter code (120 mm), outside diameter (215 mm), and width (40 mm). |
| B | Indicates a 40° contact angle, providing a high thrust capacity. |
| M | Denotes the cage material is brass (machined), offering high strength and excellent guidance at high speeds. |
7224 BM Bearing Structural Features & Performance Benefits
- High Rigidity and Load Capacity: The single row design with a 40° contact angle is optimized to support substantial combined radial and axial loads simultaneously. The optimized internal geometry, including precise shoulder diameters, ensures stable load distribution.
- High-Speed Performance: The brass (M) cage is crucial for maintaining structural integrity and guiding the balls effectively at the limiting speed of 4000 rpm, reducing friction and heat generation.
- Precision Operation: Manufactured to P6 tolerance class, this bearing guarantees minimal runout and vibration, which is critical for applications demanding high rotational accuracy.
- Material Durability: Components made from chrome steel provide high hardness, wear resistance, and a long service life under demanding conditions.
