Axial Deep Groove Ball B. FAG 54314

The FAG 54314 double-acting axial deep-groove ball bearing, measuring 55 × 125 × 80.4 mm, accommodates pure axial loads from both directions.

The FAG 54314 axial deep-groove ball bearing is designed for technical bearing arrangements where significant axial forces occur in both directions. Manufactured from standard rolling-bearing steel (100Cr6) and fitted with a sturdy sheet steel cage, this rolling bearing supports shafts on both sides. With a bore of 55 mm, an outside diameter of 125 mm and a mounting width of 80.4 mm, the bearing is suitable for demanding mechanical engineering applications. Due to its design, the axial bearing absorbs thrust forces only, whilst radial forces must be accommodated by separate radial bearings.

In which applications does the 54314 axial deep-groove ball bearing absorb thrust forces on both sides?

Designs primarily utilise the 54314 axial deep-groove ball bearing in assemblies where axial thrust forces act in opposite directions on shafts or spindles. Typical areas of application include industrial plant engineering and a wide range of machine designs. The axial bearing guides components in both directions and serves to limit axial displacement of the shaft under varying operating conditions.

When is the bidirectional operating direction with angular adjustability appropriate?

The double-sided direction of action offers functional advantages when axial loads occur alternately or in bursts. In combination with suitable washers, this component allows for precise angular adjustment. As a result, the axial bearing compensates for alignment errors caused by installation or slight shaft deflection between the shaft and housing axes during operation.

Manufactured to tolerance class P0/PN or ABEC 1, the rolling bearing fits into standardised clearances. The permissible temperature range extends from -30 to +150 degrees and covers common industrial environments. When planning, please note that the scope of supply includes the axial deep-groove ball bearing, but that shims for angular compensation must be provided separately.
