Decoding FAG 7201-B-XL-JP
- 72Series
- Angular contact ball bearings, 72 series. Series differ in outside diameter and width even when the bore is the same.
- 01Bore
- Bore 12 mm: by standard, 01 designates 12 mm.
- B-XL-JPSuffix
- FAG suffix: identifies the variant, such as seals or shields, cage, internal clearance or other features.
7201 is the standard ISO basic designation, which sets the bearing type, series and bore.
Description
FAG 7201-B-XL-JP measures 12 mm across the bore and 32 mm across the outside diameter; its width is 10 mm (12 x 32 x 10 mm).

FAG B-XL-JP series angular contact ball bearings are designed with raceways that accommodate combined radial and axial loads in a single direction. They suit applications that call for precision and rigidity, such as machine tool spindles, pumps, compressors and gearboxes. MR Industrial Accessories LLC supplies this FAG line and assists you in selecting the right bearing for your equipment.
The part number breaks down into a basic size number and three suffixes. The basic number (for example, 7200, 7201, 7202) sets the size. The letter B denotes a 40° contact angle. XL identifies a design with higher load capacity and lower friction. JP indicates a window-type sheet steel cage, ball-centered. Every part number in the series therefore defines an angular contact bearing with these characteristics.
These bearings appear in metalworking, food, chemical and petrochemical plants. Typical uses include milling machine and CNC lathe spindles, centrifugal pumps, screw compressors, gearboxes and transmission cases, as well as mining equipment and automotive applications. Because they support axial loads in one direction, they are often mounted in pairs to handle forces in both directions.
When selecting a bearing, consider the radial and axial loads, the rotation speed and the operating environment. Sealing matters: in dusty or moist conditions, choose sealed or shielded variants. Lubrication should match the temperature and speed; oil lubrication is recommended for high-speed operation. Mounting requires precise alignment and, in many cases, controlled axial adjustment. Incorrect mounting can shorten bearing service life.
Interchange with angular contact bearings from other manufacturers is possible when dimensions and contact angle match. However, tolerances and load capacities can differ between makers. Always verify the complete designation and contact us if you need to replace an existing bearing. MR Industrial Accessories LLC can help you find a suitable equivalent from our product line.

Frequently asked questions
- FAG 7201-B-XL-JP bearing: what are its dimensions?
- FAG 7201-B-XL-JP measures 12 mm across the bore and 32 mm across the outside diameter; its width is 10 mm (12 x 32 x 10 mm). Those are the boundary dimensions standardized in ISO 15 for basic designation 7201.
- What does the B suffix mean in FAG angular contact bearings?
- The B suffix indicates a 40° contact angle, which affects axial load capacity and rigidity. When replacing a bearing, keep this characteristic the same, as a different angle can change assembly performance.
- How do I choose between a sealed and an open bearing?
- If the environment contains dust, moisture or particles, a sealed or shielded bearing helps protect the lubrication. In clean, high-speed applications, open bearings allow better heat dissipation. Contact us to review your specific case.
- Can I replace a bearing from another brand with a FAG one from this series?
- Yes, if the main dimensions and contact angle match. Tolerances and capacities may vary, so verify the complete designation. Send us the part number of the original bearing and we will advise you.
