Detailed Engineering Specifications

Manufactured under strict quality controls, this polycarbonate deep groove ball bearing boasts an inside diameter of 40mm, an outside diameter of 197mm, and a width of 50mm. The inherent properties of polycarbonate provide excellent resistance to many chemicals, mild acids, and alkalis, making it suitable for applications where corrosion is a concern. Its lightweight nature also contributes to reduced rotational inertia. While offering good dielectric properties, its load-carrying capacity is lower than steel bearings, making it best suited for low-load, moderate-speed applications.

Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Applying excessive force to the inner ring during installation.Always apply mounting force to the ring that is being pressed into its seat (typically the outer ring for shaft mounting).
Using the bearing in high-load or high-speed applications.Consult the load and speed ratings for polycarbonate bearings to ensure suitability for the intended application.

Common Applications

  • Light-duty conveyor systems
  • Chemical processing equipment
  • Food and beverage machinery

⚠️ Engineering Warnings

  • Not suitable for heavy loads or high rotational speeds.
  • Exposure to strong solvents or high temperatures may degrade polycarbonate material.
