Axial Deep Groove Ball B. FAG 53316

The FAG 53316 single-direction axial deep-groove ball bearing, with dimensions of 80 × 140 × 47.6 mm, accommodates high axial loads in one direction.

The 53316 axial deep-groove ball bearing is a separable rolling bearing designed for purely axial loads. Manufactured from standard bearing steel (100Cr6), the design accommodates an 80 mm shaft and supports single-direction axial forces in the housing. Thanks to the separate design of the shaft ring, housing ring and rolling element set, this FAG bearing can be fitted with ease. The sheet steel cage guides the rolling elements evenly at operating temperatures ranging from –30 to +150 degrees Celsius.

What is the 53316 axial deep-groove ball bearing suitable for in mechanical engineering?

This bearing is primarily used in bearing arrangements where heavy axial loads from a defined direction need to be accommodated. As pure axial bearings cannot accommodate radial forces, this component is always combined with a separate radial bearing in the design. The standard tolerance class P0/PN (equivalent to ABEC 1) meets the standard requirements in industrial mechanical engineering.

When is the angular-contact design of the 533 series advantageous?

The bearing features a spherical housing washer. In conjunction with a separately available spherical washer, this design compensates for manufacturing-related misalignments or skew between the shaft and the housing surface. Please note during planning that the scope of supply comprises only the axial deep-groove ball bearing without a washer. To function correctly, the bearing requires a minimum axial load to ensure that the balls roll in the raceways without slippage.
