Deep Groove Ball Bearings FAG 6017 -Z

Single-row deep-groove ball bearing 6017 -Z with an 85 mm bore and a single-sided Z-end cap for combined radial and axial loads in mechanical engineering.

The single-row deep-groove ball bearing 6017 -Z from FAG Wälzlager is characterised by its dimensions of 85 mm inner diameter, 130 mm outer diameter and 22 mm width. As a versatile rolling bearing made from standard rolling bearing steel (100Cr6), it primarily accommodates radial forces as well as axial forces in both directions. The version with a sheet steel cage and standard radial clearance complies with tolerance class P0 (ABEC 1) and is designed for a temperature range of -30 °C to +150 °C.

What is the 6017-Z deep groove ball bearing suitable for in industrial applications?

The 6017-Z deep groove ball bearing is suitable for industrial shaft mountings subject to combined radial and axial loads. It is recommended for installation locations where one side needs to be protected from dirt particles, whilst the open opposite side allows access for lubricant. Thanks to the flangeless cylindrical outer ring, the component fits precisely into standardised housing bores.

What are the advantages of the single-sided Z-cover on this bearing?

The single-sided cover plate, made from profiled sheet steel, forms a non-contact gap seal with the inner ring. It protects the rolling elements from coarse particles without causing additional friction or heat build-up during operation. At the same time, lubricant exchange remains possible via the open side of the bearing, which facilitates relubrication procedures in a sealed housing.
