3203-BD-XL-2Z-C3 FAG Double Row Angular Contact Ball Bearing 17mm x 40mm x 17.5mm
3203-BD-XL-2Z-C3 FAG Double Row Angular Contact Ball Bearing
The 3203-BD-XL-2Z-C3 is a compact double row angular contact ball bearing from FAG, engineered to handle simultaneous radial and axial loads in both directions with excellent precision and reliability. This bearing is ideal for space-constrained applications requiring robust performance and extended operational capability.
Double row angular contact bearings feature raceways in both inner and outer rings that are angularly displaced with respect to each other. This design enables superior load distribution and the ability to accommodate combined loads acting in both directions, providing rigid bearing arrangements and exceptional performance under complex loading conditions.

The 3203-BD-XL-2Z-C3 combines FAG's engineering excellence with a compact footprint to deliver reliable performance in applications requiring bidirectional axial and radial load capacity. The 30-degree contact angle provides balanced load distribution, while the sheet steel cage ensures stable operation and reduced friction. The integrated dual side covers protect the bearing from contamination while allowing extended operation across a wide temperature range from -30°C to +120°C. The slightly increased radial clearance accommodates thermal expansion and varying operating conditions, making this bearing an excellent choice for demanding applications where precision, durability, and reliability are essential.
