Deep Groove Ball Bearings SKF 6207 NR

The SKF 6207 NR deep groove ball bearing (35x72x17 mm) enables space-saving axial fixation in the housing thanks to its integrated ring groove with retaining ring.

The 6207 NR deep groove ball bearing is a single-row rolling bearing made from standard bearing steel (100Cr6) with a bore of 35 mm, an outside diameter of 72 mm and a width of 17 mm. As an open bearing, it is suitable for designs with external housing lubrication or oil circulation. An integrated sheet steel cage guides the rolling elements evenly and with low friction during operation. The model complies with the standard tolerance class P0/PN (ABEC 1) and covers a temperature range from –20 to +150 degrees Celsius.

What is the 6207 NR deep groove ball bearing suitable for?

This rolling bearing primarily absorbs radial forces as well as moderate axial loads in both directions. The version with a ring groove and snap ring is primarily used where designs require axial positioning within the housing without additional housing shoulders or spacer sleeves. The snap ring saves installation space and simplifies the housing design by holding the bearing directly in its axial position.

What are the special features of the design with a ring groove and snap ring?

The snap ring on the outer ring secures the rolling bearing positively in the axial direction within the housing. Before installation, it must be checked whether the housing bore has the appropriate recess for the snap ring. As this open bearing is designed without an integrated seal, external housing seals protect the interior from dirt particles. The standard radial bearing clearance is designed for standard operating conditions and common fits.
