Deep Groove Ball Bearings SKF 6322

The SKF 6322 deep groove ball bearing, with dimensions of 110 × 240 × 50 mm, can accommodate high radial and axial loads in both directions.

The 6322 deep-groove ball bearing is a single-row rolling bearing in an open design without integrated sealing washers. Manufactured from standard 100Cr6 rolling-element bearing steel, a sheet steel cage guides the rolling elements through the deep raceways of the inner and outer rings. The bearing is manufactured by SKF and complies with tolerance class P0 (standard tolerance or ABEC 1). Thanks to its open design, external lubricant can reach the contact points between the rolling elements and raceways unhindered.

For which loads and mounting configurations is the 6322 deep-groove ball bearing suitable?

This rolling bearing is primarily used where heavy rotating shafts need to be supported. It primarily accommodates radial loads, but due to the deep raceway geometry, it also handles axial forces in both directions. Depending on the arrangement, the design can be used as a fixed or floating bearing. The open design requires a clean installation environment in which lubricating oil or grease is supplied via the surrounding housing system.

What criteria are important for the open design with a sheet steel cage?

The open design without seals allows for use in systems with centralised circulating lubrication or regular lubricant changes. The bearing is designed for a temperature range of -20 to +120 degrees. The integrated sheet steel cage is characterised by its low weight and guides the balls evenly during operation. As this bearing is manufactured with a standard radial clearance, it is suitable for installations with standard fits where there are no significant temperature gradients between the inner and outer rings.
