Deep Groove Ball Bearings SKF 6332 M

The SKF 6332 M deep groove ball bearing, with a 160 mm bore and a brass cage, offers a robust solution for heavy-duty industrial applications.

This single-row deep groove ball bearing 6332 M accommodates radial forces as well as axial loads in both directions. The version made from standard 100Cr6 bearing steel has an outer diameter of 340 mm and a width of 68 mm. As this is an open design without integrated sealing washers, the lubricant reaches the rolling elements and raceways unimpeded. The permissible temperature range is from –20 to +150 degrees Celsius.

In what installation environments does the 6332 M deep groove ball bearing prove its worth?

Design engineers use this large bearing in general mechanical and plant engineering applications involving high combined loads. Thanks to its manufacture to standard tolerance P0 or ABEC 1, the 6332 M deep-groove ball bearing fits precisely into standardised bearing seats. Due to its open design, it is recommended for use in clean environments or within enclosed machine housings that are fitted with external seals and a controlled lubricant supply.

What are the distinctive features of the brass cage in the 6332 M deep groove ball bearing?

The suffix ‘M’ denotes a brass cage that precisely maintains the spacing between the steel balls. The brass version offers high mechanical stability under vibrations, shock loads and high accelerations. The standard radial bearing clearance provides a balanced operating clearance for applications at typical operating temperatures. During assembly, care must be taken to ensure that the shaft seats are aligned to prevent edge loading.
