The 52204 axial deep-groove ball bearing from FAG Wälzlager, with its main dimensions of 15 × 40 × 26 mm, accommodates pure axial forces from both directions.
The 52204 axial deep-groove ball bearing is a double-acting axial bearing to standard tolerance P0 or ABEC 1. With a bore of 15 mm, an outside diameter of 40 mm and a height of 26 mm, this model is suitable for the precise axial guidance of shafts. FAG Rolling Bearings manufactures the bearing rings and rolling elements from standard 100Cr6 bearing steel. A guided sheet steel cage maintains an even spacing between the balls, which promotes smooth running.
This rolling bearing is primarily suitable for designs in which alternating or bidirectional axial forces need to be supported. However, the bearing must not be subjected to purely radial loads. The 52204 design is therefore intended for the defined axial fixation of shafts when forces act from both sides.
Thanks to its construction from roller bearing steel, the unit is suitable for use in a temperature range from –30 to +150 degrees Celsius. As no shims are supplied and the bearing is not angle-adjustable, the design requires a flat and perpendicularly aligned mounting shoulder on both the shaft and the housing.
When fitting this double-ended axial bearing, you must pay close attention to the order of the discs. The component consists of a centrally positioned shaft disc with an interference fit on the shaft, as well as two outer housing discs with a clearance fit. Incorrect alignment leads to edge running, as flat housing discs cannot automatically compensate for misalignment in the connecting structure.
In addition, you should ensure a constant minimum axial load during operation. This prevents the balls from sliding on the raceways during rapid rotational movements. The open design also requires a suitable external housing seal and grease or oil lubrication appropriate for the operating temperature.
As a double-acting bearing, this design supports pure axial forces from both directions. With a 15 mm bore, an outer diameter of 40 mm and a width of 26 mm, it offers a compact design. The sheet steel cage keeps the rolling elements in order, whilst the standard rolling bearing steel 100Cr6 provides high strength.
This bearing design is intended solely for withstanding axial forces in both directions. Radial loads must not act on the axial bearing, as this will lead to increased wear and premature failure. In practice, therefore, users usually combine the bearing with a separate radial bearing on the same shaft.
The shaft disc has a bore of 15 mm. The outer diameter of the housing washers is 40 mm, and the total axial installation height is 26 mm. The bearing is manufactured to standard tolerance P0 or ABEC 1 and complies with the standard fit specifications for industrial mechanical engineering.
No, this bearing is not angle-adjustable. The flat housing washers require that the contact surfaces on the housing and shaft are manufactured to be absolutely flat and at right angles to the axis of rotation. Misalignment leads to localised overloading of the rolling elements and reduces the service life of the bearing assembly.
The bearing is designed for operating temperatures ranging from -30 to +150 degrees Celsius. The thermal stability of the lubricant used is crucial for safe operation across this range. The integrated sheet steel cage and the 100Cr6 rolling bearing steel retain their dimensional stability within this range.
The scope of supply comprises the axial deep-groove ball bearing only, without washers. As the housing washers have a flat contact surface, the bearing rests directly against the housing shoulder. Spherical washers are not intended for use with this design, which is why precise alignment of the housing surfaces is required.
