Deep Groove Ball Bearings FAG 6413

The FAG 6413 open deep-groove ball bearing accommodates combined loads in mechanical engineering applications, with main dimensions of 65 × 160 × 37 mm.

The single-row deep-groove ball bearing 6413 from FAG primarily accommodates radial forces as well as axial forces in both directions. Manufactured from standard rolling bearing steel 100Cr6, this component is characterised by dimensionally stable raceways and rolling elements. With a bore diameter of 65 mm, an outer diameter of 160 mm and a width of 37 mm, this design is suitable for heavy-duty shaft mountings. A sheet steel cage guides the rolling elements evenly during operation.

The open roller bearing design allows direct contact with the surrounding lubricant, thereby eliminating friction losses associated with sliding seals.

What is the 6413 deep-groove ball bearing suitable for in industrial applications?

Design engineers prefer to use this roller bearing in general mechanical engineering as well as in industrial applications involving combined loads. Thanks to its permissible temperature range of –20 to +150 degrees, the component is suitable for demanding thermal operating conditions. As the outer ring has no groove or flange, the bearing fits directly into smoothly bored housing bores. The standard radial clearance promotes uniform concentricity during normal operation.

What are the advantages of the open design with a sheet steel cage?

The open design without integrated sealing washers allows for unimpeded lubricant exchange in oil or recirculating lubrication systems. Users can flexibly adjust the lubricant quantity and viscosity to suit the respective operating temperature. External housing seals or a clean installation environment help to minimise the ingress of contaminants into the rolling element area. With a tolerance class of P0 (ABEC 1), the bearing meets standard precision requirements in series machine manufacturing.
