Detailed Engineering Specifications

Designed for demanding industrial environments, this deep groove ball bearing boasts a precise 17mm inside diameter, a substantial 147mm outside diameter, and a 14mm width. Constructed from high-grade polycarbonate, it exhibits excellent chemical inertness, making it ideal for applications exposed to corrosive substances or requiring food-grade compliance. Its inherent lightweight nature reduces overall system mass, while the material's low friction coefficient contributes to efficient power transmission. This bearing is engineered for sustained performance in moderate load conditions within temperature ranges suitable for polycarbonate, typically up to 80°C. It is perfectly suited for conveyors, mixers, pumps, and other machinery in the food and beverage, pharmaceutical, and chemical processing sectors.

Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Applying excessive force during installation, leading to brinelling or damage to the polycarbonate races.Utilize a bearing press or appropriate installer tool to apply force evenly and gradually. Avoid hammering directly on the bearing.
Exposing the polycarbonate bearing to temperatures exceeding its operational limit, causing material degradation and premature failure.Verify the operating temperature range of the application and ensure it remains within the specified limits for polycarbonate bearings (typically up to 80°C).

Common Applications
