I bought SKF 7305 bearing and I want to know if it is designed for Axial thurst? it is a single layer unsealed sphere ball bearin or the supplier gave me a defective one because the collar(inner ring) has some wobbling motion.
The supplier told me that SKF 7300 and 7200 series are designed for axial thurst impact too, is it really?

7305 is an angle-contact ball bearing. (I wouldn't use the word sphere... sounds too much like spherical roller which is a different animal).

It is designed primarily for thrust loads. It requires a minimum thrust preload as well.

You can find the ratings on the SKF website.

I'm not sure about impacting.

"or the supplier gave me a defective one because the collar(inner ring) has some wobbling motion".

Until assembled as an opposing pair or preloaded in some way there will be quite a bit of clearance in a single bearing. They are not meant to run as single bearings in most cases. I'd ask SKF to review your bearing arrangement.

7305 is a angular contact bearing. The more the angle is, more thrust they can take. But to answer your question, it will take thrust. Wobble which you are talking about, may be it is a clearance issue. Each bearing has a clearance depending on class.
 
I think Tmoose and Carburize are on the money.
Why are you asking the question? Are you seeing
some type of premature failure? As Tmoose suggests
are you mounting it correctly? Wobble is simply
bearing clearance phenomenom. Clearance is generally
provided in the bearing to reduce the bearing
from binding or to reduce the turning torque.
Normally the less clearance in an angular type
bearing the more thrust it can handle in a combined
loading application. It is also true that the higher
the contact angle, the more thrust it can handle
as well.
