Decoding SKF 7212 BEGAP
- 72Series
- Angular contact ball bearings, 72 series. Series differ in outside diameter and width even when the bore is the same.
- 12Bore
- Bore 60 mm (12 × 5).
- BEGAPSuffix
- SKF suffix: identifies the variant, such as seals or shields, cage, internal clearance or other features.
7212 is the standard ISO basic designation, which sets the bearing type, series and bore.
Description
SKF 7212 BEGAP measures 60 mm across the bore and 110 mm across the outside diameter; its width is 22 mm (60 x 110 x 22 mm).
SKF 7212 BEGAP belongs to angular contact ball bearing, part of our Bearings range. Tell us how many you need by WhatsApp or email and we'll get back to you promptly with a quote for 7212 BEGAP and any equivalents.
Angular contact bearings in the SKF BEGAP series handle combined radial and axial loads in a single direction. Their contact angle makes them a fit for assemblies that call for high precision and rigidity, including machine tool spindles, pumps and gearboxes. MR Industrial Accessories LLC supplies these bearings as part of its SKF line.
Reading the BEGAP code helps you confirm the bearing matches the application. The numeric prefix sets the dimension series, a medium section with a moderate outside diameter. B is the 40° contact angle, which provides more axial load capacity than a smaller angle would. E denotes a fiberglass-reinforced polyamide cage built for high speeds. G means the bearing comes greased for long life. A covers the optimized internal design, and P indicates normal precision tolerance.
Typical uses include centrifugal pumps, compressors, milling and grinding spindles, gearboxes and textile machinery, wherever axial loads act in one direction. Industries such as metalworking, food processing and petrochemicals rely on these bearings. High-speed capability and rigidity suit equipment that demands rotational precision, from machine tool spindles to printing machine drive shafts.
Selection depends on the axial load to be carried, the rotation speed and the space available. During installation, orient the contact angle correctly, usually with the chamfered side of the outer ring facing the axial load. Align the supports precisely and confirm that lubrication is adequate; the G grease is already in place, but check temperature and contamination conditions. If the bearing is not sealed integrally, add separate seals for protection. The E polyamide cage resists normal service but is not intended for extreme temperatures.
For equivalences, SKF angular contact bearings can be interchanged with other brands that use the same ISO designation, such as FAG, NSK or NTN, as long as dimensions and contact angle agree. Tolerances and internal clearance may differ from one manufacturer to another, so verify the specifications before substituting. MR Industrial Accessories LLC can advise on compatibility and the options available.

Frequently asked questions
- SKF 7212 BEGAP bearing: what are its dimensions?
- SKF 7212 BEGAP measures 60 mm across the bore and 110 mm across the outside diameter; its width is 22 mm (60 x 110 x 22 mm). Those are the boundary dimensions standardized in ISO 15 for basic designation 7212.
- What does the BEGAP suffix mean on an SKF bearing?
- B is the 40° contact angle, E the polyamide cage, G grease lubrication, A the optimized internal design and P normal tolerance. These suffixes define key characteristics for selection.
- Can I install a BEGAP bearing instead of one from another brand?
- Yes, if dimensions and contact angle match. Check tolerances and internal clearance, since they can vary between manufacturers. Ask us for the exact equivalent.
- What are the typical applications for angular contact bearings of this series?
- They are used in pumps, compressors, machine tool spindles, gearboxes and equipment requiring support of axial loads in one direction with high precision.
