Working in a contaminated setting? Clean up your equipment's act with this ball bearing from SKF. It has two-sided non-contact shielding that brushes off pesky particles while boosting durability by keeping lubricant inside, where you need it most. The unit's deep-groove construction gives it low-noise, low-vibration and low-friction characteristics, meaning you can safely put it to work in high-speed applications moving at up to 12,000r/min. As this bearing is precision-engineered to reduce friction, it slashes the risk of excess heat evaporating the grease inside so things run smoothly in the long term.

• Tolerates temperatures up to +120°C, making it a safe bet for challenging settings
• C3 internal clearance rating means this bearing's got plenty of room between races to accommodate heat expansion
• Dynamic load rating of 58.5kN so tolerates high rotational forces
• Drives radial and axial loads in both directions, meaning it's a versatile option

• Railways and transportation
• Packaging plants
• Wind farms
• Industrial manufacturing

It's made from bearing steel, which is enriched with carbon to give it extra robustness.
