What is the equivalent of a 7208-B-TVP-C3 bearing?

The 7208-B-TVP-C3 is a 40×80×18mm angular contact ball bearing with verified equivalents across multiple brands: NSK 7208A C3E, NTN 7208 C3, SKF 7208 BEP C3, Timken 7208 C3. All equivalents share the same bore, outer diameter, width, and load ratings.

What are the dimensions of a 7208-B-TVP-C3 bearing?

The 7208-B-TVP-C3 bearing has a bore diameter of 40mm, outer diameter of 80mm, and width of 18mm. It has a dynamic load rating of 34.5 kN, static load rating of 23.9 kN, and weighs 380g. Maximum speed with grease lubrication is 8,300 rpm.

Can I replace a FAG 7208-B-TVP-C3 with a NSK equivalent?

Yes. FAG and NSK bearings with the same ISO designation are dimensionally interchangeable. The 7208-B-TVP-C3 (40×80×18mm) can be replaced with the equivalent NSK part number as long as the seal type (open) and clearance class (C3) match. Always verify load ratings and speed limits for your specific application.
