Deep Groove Ball Bearings SKF 16028

SKF single-row deep groove ball bearing 16028, dimensions 140 x 210 x 22 mm, with a sheet steel cage and an open design, for compact radial bearing arrangements in mechanical engineering.

The 16028 deep groove ball bearing is an open, single-row rolling bearing manufactured by SKF for shaft diameters of 140 mm. Thanks to its narrow width of 22 mm compared with an outer diameter of 210 mm, this design primarily accommodates radial loads where axial installation space is limited. The rings and rolling elements are made from standard bearing steel 100Cr6, which supports dimensional stability and load-carrying capacity during operation. The integrated sheet steel cage ensures that the balls are guided evenly in the raceways.

What is the 16028 deep-groove ball bearing suitable for?

Design engineers select the 16028 deep groove ball bearing primarily for applications involving large shaft diameters where limited axial installation space is also required. In addition to significant radial forces, the bearing also accommodates axial forces in both directions. The smooth design, without a groove or flange on the outer ring, allows for direct installation in cylindrical housing bores and facilitates straightforward assembly.

What are the special features of the bearing’s open design?

As an open rolling bearing, the 16028 deep groove ball bearing has no integrated sealing elements. Lubricants such as lubricating oil or grease reach the raceways unhindered, allowing free circulation in oil baths and in recirculating lubrication systems. For dusty or damp environments, an external housing seal is required to prevent the ingress of foreign particles. The design in tolerance class P0/PN or ABEC 1 and the standard radial clearance meet the usual requirements in mechanical engineering.
