Axial Deep Groove Ball B. SKF 52206

The SKF 52206 axial deep-groove ball bearing accommodates axial forces in both directions and has compact dimensions of 25 × 52 × 29 mm.

The 52206 axial deep-groove ball bearing is a separable rolling bearing made from standard bearing steel (100Cr6). This SKF component is designed for purely axial loads and supports shafts in two directions. The integrated sheet steel cage guides the rolling elements in their raceways at operating temperatures between –30 and +150 degrees. With a tolerance class of P0 or ABEC 1, this bearing meets standard precision requirements in industrial mechanical engineering.

In which installation scenarios is the 52206 axial deep-groove ball bearing used?

This double-acting bearing is used for the axial fixation and guidance of rotating shafts subjected to alternating axial loads. Typical applications are found in general gearbox and mechanical engineering in bearing arrangements subject to axial forces on both sides. As the design can only accommodate axial forces, this axial bearing is always combined in practice with separate radial bearings, which absorb the radial forces.

What are the design features of the 52206 axial deep-groove ball bearing?

The double-acting version consists of a common shaft disc with a 25 mm bore diameter, two housing discs with an outer diameter of 52 mm, and two ball rings. The scope of supply includes the axial deep-groove ball bearing without shims. As the housing discs are flat, the bearing is not angle-adjustable. During design and assembly, therefore, precisely perpendicular contact surfaces must be provided to prevent uneven load distribution across the raceways.
