Decoding FAG 7204-B-XL-2RS-TVP
- 72Series
- Angular contact ball bearings, 72 series. Series differ in outside diameter and width even when the bore is the same.
- 04Bore
- Bore 20 mm (04 × 5).
- B-XL-2RS-TVPSuffix
- FAG suffix: identifies the variant, such as seals or shields, cage, internal clearance or other features.
7204 is the standard ISO basic designation, which sets the bearing type, series and bore.
Description
FAG 7204-B-XL-2RS-TVP measures 20 mm across the bore and 47 mm across the outside diameter; its width is 14 mm (20 x 47 x 14 mm).

FAG angular contact ball bearings use offset raceways, which lets them carry combined radial and axial loads in one direction. The versions covered here pair the B design with 2RS sealing and a TVP polyamide cage, and they suit equipment where rigidity and running accuracy matter, such as spindles, pumps and gearboxes. MR Industrial Accessories supplies this line to customers throughout the United States and in several Latin American countries.
Reading the designation is a matter of breaking it into blocks. The base number tells you the series and size: 7004, 7005 and 7006 sit in the light-section 70 series, while 7200, 7201 and 7202 belong to the heavier 72 series. The letter B marks a 40° contact angle for substantial axial loads. XL points to the optimized design of the current generation. Then 2RS means sealing on both sides, and TVP a fiberglass-reinforced polyamide cage. With those blocks identified, the bearing is easy to place in the catalog.
Typical installations include machine tool spindles, centrifugal pumps, compressors, gearboxes and transmission equipment. In production environments you will also find them in packaging lines, mills, extruders and textile machinery, wherever rotation has to stay precise and axial load is part of the duty. Because the design takes axial load in one direction only, these bearings are normally installed in pairs, either back-to-back or face-to-face, so the assembly handles load both ways and gains rigidity.
Selection comes down to internal clearance, sealing type and lubrication. The 2RS seal keeps out dust and moisture but adds friction; in a clean setting with high speed, an open version may work better. The TVP cage is light and durable, which covers most applications. At mounting, watch the alignment of the supports and set the correct preload, since an angular contact bearing with insufficient preload will lose precision and service life.
Nomenclature for angular contact bearings varies from one manufacturer to another. The same size can carry different codes depending on the brand, and suffixes for sealing, cage and angle do not always line up. The reliable method is to compare dimensions and technical data rather than the code alone. If you have a number from another brand, send it over and we will cross-reference it against the FAG line we supply.

Frequently asked questions
- FAG 7204-B-XL-2RS-TVP bearing: what are its dimensions?
- FAG 7204-B-XL-2RS-TVP measures 20 mm across the bore and 47 mm across the outside diameter; its width is 14 mm (20 x 47 x 14 mm). Those are the boundary dimensions standardized in ISO 15 for basic designation 7204.
- What does the 2RS suffix mean on these bearings?
- It means the bearing is sealed on both sides. That sealing keeps dust and moisture out and helps hold the lubricant in place. It is a common choice where contamination is moderate, though it adds some friction compared with an open variant.
- Can they be mounted individually or are they always mounted in pairs?
- Since an angular contact bearing takes axial load in a single direction, pairs facing each other are the usual arrangement. The assembly then absorbs loads in both directions and becomes more rigid. A single bearing can work in some applications, but check with us before settling on the mounting.
- How do I request a quote for a specific part number?
- Send the complete part number by WhatsApp or email, for example 7005-B-XL-2RS-TVP, and our team will reply promptly. If the suffix is unclear, send the dimensions or a number from another brand and we will help you identify the equivalent FAG variant.
