ZVL 52205 Double Direction Thrust Ball Bearing 20x47x28

Overview

The ZVL 52205 is a premium double direction thrust ball bearing designed to support axial loads acting in both directions. Its construction consists of one shaft washer, two housing washers and two precision ball-and-cage assemblies, allowing reliable axial load transmission from either side of the shaft.

As part of the internationally standardized 52200 Series, this bearing is manufactured by ZVL Slovakia to provide excellent running accuracy, low friction and long service life. It is specifically intended for applications where axial positioning of the shaft is required while radial loads are supported by separate bearings.

FAQ

What type of bearing is the ZVL 52205?

It is a double direction thrust ball bearing designed to support axial loads acting in both directions.

Can the ZVL 52205 support radial loads?

No. This bearing is designed exclusively for axial loads. Radial loads should be supported by a separate radial bearing.

What are the dimensions of the ZVL 52205?

The bearing has an inner diameter of 20 mm, an outer diameter of 47 mm, and an overall height of 28 mm.

What does a double direction thrust bearing mean?

It means the bearing can support axial loads from both directions, eliminating the need for two separate single-direction thrust bearings.

Where is the ZVL 52205 commonly used?

Typical applications include industrial gearboxes, machine tools, presses, spindle assemblies, hydraulic systems, agricultural machinery and other industrial equipment requiring bidirectional axial load support.
