Axial Deep Groove Ball B. SKF 51406

The SKF 51406 axial deep groove ball bearing accommodates unilateral axial forces and precisely supports shafts measuring 30x70x28 mm.

The SKF 51406 axial deep groove ball bearing is designed for applications where purely axial forces in one direction need to be supported. Manufactured from standard rolling-bearing steel (100Cr6), this bearing has a bore of 30 mm, an outside diameter of 70 mm and a height of 28 mm. Thanks to its separable design, the shaft ring, housing ring and the ball-guided sheet steel cage can be fitted separately.

In which designs is the single-sided axial deep groove ball bearing 51406 used?

This axial bearing is suitable for applications where high single-direction axial loads occur and no radial loads act on the bearing mounting. Typical applications are found in industrial bearing arrangements with a clearly defined axial direction of guidance. As the design is single-direction, the bearing specifically supports axial forces in one direction only. However, this specific design cannot be used where the direction of the load varies.

What is important when installing a single-direction bearing?

The mating surfaces in the housing and on the shaft must be perpendicular to the axis of rotation, as this series is not angularly adjustable. The scope of supply includes the axial deep-groove ball bearing without a washer, which is why a flat mounting surface for the housing washer is required. The bearing complies with the standard tolerance P0/PN (ABEC 1) and is designed for an operating temperature range of -30 to +150 degrees.
