SAA17AG0 Bearing Product Overview & Core Advantages
The SAA17AG0 is a high-performance thin section angular contact ball bearing designed for precision applications requiring compact design and reliable operation. Manufactured from stainless steel with a nylon cage, this single row bearing excels in handling combined radial and axial loads simultaneously due to its specified 30° contact angle. Its Reali-Slim cross-section provides significant space and weight savings without compromising performance, making it ideal for applications where size and mass are critical constraints. The bearing comes pre-lubricated and is rated for a temperature range of -30°C to 110°C, ensuring stable operation in various environments.
SAA17AG0 Bearing Model Code Explained, Specifications & Naming Convention
| Code Segment | Technical Meaning |
|---|---|
| SAA | Indicates the bearing series: Reali-Slim Stainless Steel Angular Contact bearings. |
| 17 | Specifies the nominal bore diameter in inches (1.75"). |
| AG | Denotes the contact angle of 30°, optimized for handling significant axial loads. |
| 0 | Indicates the open (unsealed) construction and standard internal clearance. |
SAA17AG0 Bearing Structural Features & Performance Benefits
- High Rigidity & Load Capacity: The single row angular contact design with a 30° contact angle provides high rigidity and is engineered to support substantial combined radial and axial loads. The specified axial static load rating of 600 lbf and static load moment of 1520 lbf demonstrate its capability to handle complex loading scenarios.
- Precision & Smooth Operation: Built to ABEC-1 precision tolerances, this bearing ensures consistent performance and minimal runout. The use of a nylon cage contributes to smooth, quiet operation at moderate speeds and offers excellent corrosion resistance.
- Compact & Lightweight Design: As part of the Reali-Slim series, it features a minimal cross-section (Width: 0.1875") and low weight (0.045 lbs), enabling compact machinery designs and reducing rotational inertia.
- Corrosion Resistance & Material Integrity: Constructed entirely from stainless steel (rings and balls), the bearing is inherently resistant to corrosion, making it suitable for harsh environments and applications requiring washdown or exposure to moisture.
SAA17AG0 Bearing Typical Application Areas
The SAA17AG0 is ideally suited for a wide range of precision equipment and systems, including:
- Robotics and Automation: Used in robotic arm joints, gimbal systems, and precision actuators.
- Aerospace and Defense: Applied in guidance systems, control surface mechanisms, and instrumentation.
- Medical Equipment: Found in surgical robots, imaging devices (CT/MRI scanners), and dental handpieces.
- Optical and Precision Instrumentation: Employed in rotary stages, measuring devices, and surveying equipment.
- Semiconductor Manufacturing: Used in wafer handling robots and precision positioning stages.
