Detailed Engineering Specifications

Specified by design engineers worldwide, this deep groove ball bearing is precision-manufactured from Aluminum 6061, a widely recognized alloy for its excellent strength-to-weight ratio and superior corrosion resistance, making it ideal for environments where traditional steel bearings might degrade. With an internal diameter of 40mm, an external diameter of 101mm, and a width of 15mm, it's designed for moderate radial and axial loads. The inherent properties of Aluminum 6061 contribute to reduced system inertia and improved thermal conductivity, further enhancing its suitability for high-speed or temperature-sensitive power transmission systems.

Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Forcing the bearing onto a misaligned shaft.Ensure precise alignment of the shaft and housing before attempting installation. Use a bearing installer tool if necessary.
Applying excessive force directly to the outer ring during shaft mounting.When mounting on the shaft, apply force only to the inner ring of the bearing. Conversely, when mounting in the housing, apply force only to the outer ring.

Common Applications

  • Electric Motors
  • Gearboxes
  • Conveyor Systems
  • Automotive Components

⚠️ Engineering Warnings

  • This bearing is not designed for heavy shock loads.
  • Ensure proper lubrication is maintained to prevent premature wear, especially in high-speed applications.
