Axial Deep Groove Ball B. FAG 53307

The FAG 53307 axial deep-groove ball bearing, with a 35 mm bore and an outer diameter of 68 mm, is designed to accommodate axial loads acting in one direction.

The 53307 axial deep-groove ball bearing is a single-direction rolling bearing from FAG designed specifically to accommodate axial forces. The unit is made from standard rolling-element bearing steel (100Cr6) and features a dimensionally stable sheet steel cage. Manufactured to tolerance class P0/PN or ABEC 1, this design supports shafts in one direction. When designing the application, it is important to note that this type of bearing is designed to carry purely axial forces and must not be subjected to radial loads.

What is the 53307 axial deep groove ball bearing suitable for?

This rolling bearing is used in applications where designs require high axial guidance forces in one direction. Typical applications are found in general mechanical engineering for shaft guides with a defined axial thrust direction. As it is suitable for a temperature range of -30 to +150 degrees, the steel construction is also designed for operating environments subject to thermal stress. The assembly is always integrated in combination with a separate radial guide for the shaft.

When is the angular adjustability of this bearing relevant?

The bearing features a spherical housing washer and, when used in conjunction with a suitable shim, is angularly adjustable. This feature helps you to compensate for misalignment or manufacturing-related skew between the shaft and the housing. As the scope of supply comprises the bearing itself without a washer, please select the matching counterpart separately to suit your installation situation. During assembly, ensure that the contact surfaces are clean to prevent the bearing from running on edges and uneven loading of the rolling elements.
