Looking to support moving parts in applications like motors and pumps? This ball bearing from SKF is a reliable choice to support dynamic radial and axial loads running in both directions with forces up to 74.1kN. It's a deep-groove type that supports rotational speeds up to 12,000r/min, so you can rely on it for use with fast-paced equipment. The deep-groove design also reduces friction, which minimises wear and noise in your application.

• Steel cage material protects against corrosion for a long service life
• Open ends give easy access for maintenance checks and relubrication
• Plain-race design includes minimal moving parts to reduce the need for replacement

• Conveyors
• Agricultural machinery
• Vehicle motors
• Automation control systems

Open-ended bearings like this one give the lubricant freedom to move, which ensures the balls run smoothly in the race. Because there's no sealing, it's easy to check the units visually and they're ideal for use in clean environments. If you need to use a bearing in dusty or dirty conditions, a shielded version is a reliable choice as it prevents contaminants from entering the workings.
