NSK 7321BEAT85 dimensions and technical reference
NSK 7321BEAT85 is a angular contact ball bearing reference with boundary dimensions 105×225×49 mm. The order is bore d × outside diameter D × bearing width B. Use the full marking and construction, not only the base number, when comparing candidates.
Contact angle, cage and complete marking
The catalogue base 7321BEA uses a 40° nominal contact angle (B). The standard T85 code identifies a polyamide 46 resin cage. The ratings below belong to this standard cage; optional cage codes are not extra products with automatically identical performance.
How this bearing locates the shaft
A single angular contact bearing carries combined loading with axial load in one direction. Radial loading also produces an axial reaction, so the surrounding arrangement needs an opposed bearing or equivalent verified support. A single bearing is not automatically a preloaded matched set.
Arrangement-specific load calculation
For Fr > 0 and Fa/Fr ≤ 1.14, P = Fr. Above that ratio, P = 0.35Fr + 0.57Fa. Static equivalent load is P0 = max(Fr, 0.5Fr + 0.26Fa). Fr and Fa are the applicable radial and axial loads in consistent units. Resolve reactions and load sharing for the actual bearing arrangement before using the formula; the factors alone do not establish safe machine loads.
Reading speed and lubrication data
The source gives a grease limiting speed of 2600 r/min. The oil limiting speed is 4000 r/min. These values are for the stated bearing version, not every cage or closure sharing the same dimensions. Near the limit, assess load, lubricant, temperature and heat removal; a catalogue speed is not a guaranteed continuous-duty speed.
Selection and mounting limits
- This T85 cage table reference has no DB, DF or DT designations in its arrangement cells. A cage code alone does not establish high-accuracy classification, universal matching or a supplied clearance/preload code. Confirm the complete specification; no extra matched-set product is inferred from the blank cells.
- The catalogue omission rule refers to CN clearance for ordinary matched designations; it does not supply a numerical installed clearance, preload force or nut torque for this assembly.
- For a dash in the db column, NSK directs use of da minimum and ra maximum. The substitute applies to that mounting note, not to missing load or speed values. Follow the relevant single, DB or DF drawing; a DT shoulder layout is not fully specified here.
- A rating is a calculation reference, not an allowable load for an unspecified machine. Lubrication, fit, temperature, alignment and operating load still matter.
- This source does not establish machine fitment, replacement approval, a CAD file, friction torque or an installed preload. Missing values remain unstated rather than being copied from a similar model.
