Axial Deep Groove Ball B. FAG 51313

The FAG 51313 axial deep-groove ball bearing accommodates unidirectional axial forces and has main dimensions of 65 × 115 × 36 mm.

The 51313 axial deep-groove ball bearing is a separable rolling bearing designed to accommodate purely axial loads from a single direction. Manufactured from standard rolling bearing steel 100Cr6, this FAG component guides shafts axially and supports thrust loads. With an internal diameter of 65 mm, an external diameter of 115 mm and a height of 36 mm, the bearing is suitable for designs with defined axial loads in general mechanical engineering. It complies with tolerance class P0/PN or ABEC 1 for standard dimensional and running accuracy.

What is the 51313 axial deep-groove ball bearing suitable for?

This 51313 axial deep-groove ball bearing is used in applications where assemblies must accommodate axial compressive forces in a single direction. As the design is single-acting, it supports shafts on one side only. However, the bearing must not be subjected to purely radial loads. It is designed for use in axially loaded bearing arrangements with force applied from one side. Thanks to its sheet steel cage and material composition, the bearing operates within a temperature range of -30 to +150 degrees.

What is important when installing single-direction axial bearings?

When installing the 51313 axial deep groove ball bearing, the precise alignment of the mating parts is crucial. As this design is not angle-adjustable and is supplied without a shim, the system is sensitive to misalignment or skew between the shaft and housing. Planar-parallel contact surfaces counteract localised overloads on the rolling elements. As the bearing is designed to be disassembled, the shaft washer, housing washer and the ball-guided sheet steel cage can be fitted separately. Suitable lubrication is determined by the thermal operating limits.
