Deep Groove Ball Bearings SKF 16026

SKF single-row deep groove ball bearing 16026 with a 130 mm bore, 200 mm outer diameter and 22 mm width, in an open design.

The SKF 16026 deep groove ball bearing is a radial rolling bearing with a narrow cross-section for shafts with a diameter of 130 mm. Thanks to its compact width of 22 mm and an outside diameter of 200 mm, this component requires little axial installation space. Manufactured from standard 100Cr6 rolling-element bearing steel in SKF Explorer quality, this single-row bearing is suitable for withstanding predominantly radial loads as well as moderate axial forces in both directions.

What is the 16026 deep-groove ball bearing suitable for?

This open rolling bearing is recommended for use in enclosed assemblies that already feature an external seal or in which the bearing runs directly in an oil bath. Typical applications include gearbox housings and general mechanical engineering. The narrow design of the 160 series allows for space-saving bearing arrangements. Due to the absence of a seal, the design starts up with low friction and generates less heat at higher speeds than contact-sealed variants.

What does tolerance class P6 mean for this open bearing?

In this design, dimensional accuracy is manufactured to tolerance class P6, whilst running accuracy corresponds to standard class PN. Tighter dimensional tolerances facilitate a precise fit on the shaft and within the housing, and ensure consistent fit conditions. As the bearing is of an open design, it requires professional initial lubrication with grease or lubricating oil prior to commissioning. The integrated sheet steel cage guides the rolling elements within a temperature range of -20 to +120 degrees Celsius.
