Detailed Engineering Specifications

Precision-manufactured to tight tolerances, this 31mm bore x 162mm outer diameter x 21mm width deep groove ball bearing is forged from high-carbon steel, providing superior hardness and wear resistance. Its hardened raceways and precisely matched rolling elements ensure minimal friction and extended operational life under moderate radial and axial loads. The inherent strength of carbon steel makes it ideal for applications requiring durability and reliability in environments with dust or moisture, such as industrial machinery, agricultural equipment, and heavy-duty conveyor systems.

Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Forcing the bearing onto the shaft with excessive or uneven force.Use a bearing puller/press or a properly sized drift and hammer to apply force only to the inner ring during shaft mounting.
Contaminating the bearing during installation.Handle the bearing with clean hands or gloves and ensure the installation environment is free from dust and dirt.

Common Applications

  • Industrial Gearboxes
  • Electric Motors
  • Agricultural Machinery

⚠️ Engineering Warnings

  • Do not exceed the bearing's rated load capacity.
  • Ensure proper lubrication is maintained throughout the bearing's service life.
