Detailed Engineering Specifications

Manufactured under strict quality controls, this polycarbonate deep groove ball bearing features an inside diameter of 15mm, an outside diameter of 98mm, and a width of 32mm. The inherent properties of polycarbonate provide excellent resistance to many chemicals and moisture, making it suitable for corrosive or wet environments where traditional steel bearings would degrade. Its non-conductive nature also makes it ideal for applications involving electrical currents or static discharge. This bearing is designed for light to moderate load conditions and environments requiring reduced weight and non-magnetic properties.

Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Applying excessive force unevenly during installation, leading to premature bearing failure.Use a bearing press or a socket of the correct size to apply force evenly to the bearing's ring.
Contaminating the bearing surfaces with dirt or lubricants not specified for polycarbonate.Handle the bearing in a clean environment and use only lubricants compatible with polycarbonate materials.

Common Applications
