Detailed Engineering Specifications

A high-performance industrial component, this deep groove ball bearing is constructed from high-grade polycarbonate, offering exceptional chemical inertness and resistance to a wide range of corrosive substances. With an inside diameter of 32mm, an outside diameter of 159mm, and a width of 40mm, it provides robust support for rotational loads. The inherent dielectric properties of polycarbonate also make it suitable for applications where electrical insulation is critical. Its lower density compared to metal bearings contributes to reduced overall system weight. Designed for moderate speed and load applications in chemical processing, food and beverage, and marine environments.

Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Applying excessive force during installation, leading to cracking of the polycarbonate.Use a press or appropriate bearing installation tool, applying force evenly to the outer ring for insertion into the housing or the inner ring for insertion onto the shaft. Do not hammer the bearing.
Contamination of the bearing raceways with abrasive particles during handling.Store bearings in their original packaging until ready for installation. Handle with clean, lint-free gloves in a clean environment.

Common Applications

  • Chemical processing equipment
  • Food and beverage machinery
  • Marine and offshore applications
  • Lightweight conveyor systems
  • Medical devices

⚠️ Engineering Warnings

  • Not suitable for high-temperature applications exceeding the material's thermal limits.
  • Avoid exposure to strong solvents that may degrade polycarbonate.
  • Ensure proper lubrication is maintained according to operational requirements to prevent premature wear.
