Description

SKF 3204 A is a double row angular contact ball bearing reference, within Bearings. Request a quote for 3204 A via WhatsApp or email with the quantity you need; we respond promptly with lead time and equivalents.

The SKF double row angular contact bearing is a component designed to withstand radial and axial loads in both directions. Its construction with two rows of balls and inclined raceways allows it to handle tilting moments, so it is used in applications requiring high rigidity and precision. It is a compact solution that simplifies mounting by integrating two bearings into one.

The designation of this series is read simply: the base number identifies the size and load capacity, while the suffix A indicates an internal design variant, generally associated with a specific contact angle or cage. For example, 3204 A corresponds to a double row bearing with that suffix, and so on with 3205 A, 3206 A and the rest of the series. Knowing these part numbers allows you to order the exact replacement.

These bearings are used in industries such as metallurgy, food, textile and machine tools. They are common in milling machine spindles, gearboxes, pumps, compressors and transmission equipment where combined loads and moments must be supported. In Argentina, they are commonly found in production lines requiring high precision and reliability, such as those in the automotive and packaging sectors.

To select the right bearing, take into account the magnitude and direction of the loads, the rotation speed and the environmental conditions. Sealing is key: if there is dust or moisture, choose variants with seals or shields. Lubrication must be suitable for the operating temperature, and mounting requires precise alignment and correct adjustment of axial clearance, since forced mounting can damage the raceways.

Regarding equivalences, double row angular contact bearings from different brands can be interchanged if dimensions and tolerances match, but always verify the part number and technical specifications. SKF is an official brand that MR sells, which guarantees access to genuine products with backing. Not all brands use the same suffixes, so always check the complete designation.

Frequently Asked Questions

What does the suffix A mean in bearings 3204 A, 3205 A, etc.?
The suffix A indicates an internal design variant within the series. It may refer to a specific contact angle or a particular cage material. To know exactly what it means for your application, check the complete designation and technical specifications.
How do I choose between a double row bearing and two single row bearings?
The double row bearing takes up less axial space and simplifies mounting by integrating two bearings into one. If you need to withstand axial loads in both directions and moments, this option is more compact. Also evaluate the required rigidity and precision.
What should I consider for mounting an angular contact bearing?
It is essential to correctly align the shaft and housing, adjust axial clearance according to specification and lubricate properly. Forced or misaligned mounting can cause noise, overheating and premature failures. Follow the manufacturer's recommendations.
