Deep Groove Ball Bearings FAG 16036

The FAG 16036 deep-groove ball bearing, with dimensions of 180 × 280 × 31 mm, offers a narrow design for radial and axial loads in mechanical engineering.

The 16036 deep-groove ball bearing is a single-row rolling bearing with a narrow cross-section. It primarily absorbs radial forces and supports shafts in both axial directions. Manufactured from standard rolling-element bearing steel 100Cr6, this bearing is characterised by its dimensional stability and load-carrying capacity. As it is designed as an open bearing, lubricant can reach the raceways unhindered, which makes it suitable for use in oil-lubricated housings and enclosed spaces.

What is the FAG 16036 deep groove ball bearing suitable for?

The 16036 deep groove ball bearing is primarily used in mechanical engineering in applications involving combined loads. Thanks to its narrow cross-section and a bore diameter of 180 mm, the design is suitable for installation locations with limited axial space. The bearing transmits both radial and axial forces whilst ensuring smooth running. In sealed housings, the open design ensures that lubricating oil or grease reaches the rolling elements directly.

What are the key features of the open design with a sheet steel cage?

The design without integrated seals allows for a direct supply of lubricant and reduces frictional resistance during operation. The integrated sheet steel cage guides the rolling elements smoothly and is suitable for operating temperatures ranging from –20 to +150 degrees. With the standard radial bearing clearance and the standard tolerance class P0 or ABEC 1, the component meets standard installation requirements. The design must include external sealing of the housing to prevent the ingress of dirt particles.
