The FAG 51236 -MP axial deep-groove ball bearing, with dimensions of 180 × 250 × 56 mm and a solid brass cage, accommodates high unidirectional axial forces in mechanical engineering applications.
The 51236 -MP axial deep-groove ball bearing is a separable rolling bearing designed to accommodate pure axial forces in one direction. In this model of FAG rolling bearing, the dimensionally stable solid brass cage ensures controlled guidance of the rolling elements under demanding operating conditions. Manufactured from standard roller bearing steel 100Cr6 in the Normal tolerance class (P0/PN or ABEC 1), the assembly supports shafts with a 180 mm bore against axial displacement. This design is suitable for temperatures ranging from -30 to +150 degrees Celsius.
This rolling bearing is used when shaft assemblies need to absorb longitudinal forces acting on one side without any radial forces. As the design acts purely axially, no radial load must be applied to the bearing. Typical applications include vertical shaft mountings or axial gearbox supports in mechanical engineering. Thanks to its open design, the rolling bearing can be fitted in separate stages: the shaft ring, housing ring and the ball-guided brass cage can be fitted onto the shaft and into the housing one after the other.
The suffix ‘MP’ denotes a solid brass cage, which offers high mechanical strength compared to simple sheet metal cages. This cage guides the balls accurately even under shock-like load changes, vibrations or higher accelerations. As brass has good emergency running properties and remains chemically resistant to lubricant additives, this cage is particularly recommended for demanding operating conditions. When designing the assembly, please note that the bearing is not angularly adjustable; radial runout must therefore be prevented by means of precisely machined contact surfaces.
This axial bearing has an internal diameter (bore) of 180 mm, an external diameter of 250 mm and a height or overall width of 56 mm. These dimensions define the shaft and housing connections. Owing to its standardised key dimensions, the bearing can be integrated into existing designs, provided that the mounting surfaces are perpendicular to the axis of rotation.
The bearing is designed as a single-acting axial bearing and accommodates only axial forces from a defined direction. The bearing must not be subjected to radial loads, as this leads to uneven running and premature wear. For combined loads, the bearing must always be used in conjunction with a separate radial bearing, which guides the shaft.
At FAG, the abbreviation MP stands for a solid brass cage. Such a cage is characterised by high strength, dimensional stability and good damping properties. It is recommended for applications involving severe vibrations, high accelerations or demanding environmental conditions, where standard sheet-metal cages may reach their mechanical limits.
The axial deep-groove ball bearing is approved for use at temperatures ranging from -30 to +150 degrees Celsius. The actual operating limit is determined not only by the dimensional stability of the 100Cr6 steel and the brass cage, but above all by the lubricant selected. Use greases or lubricating oils whose thermal stability fully covers this range.
No, this version is not angle-adjustable and is supplied without a spherical washer. The bearing is sensitive to misalignment between the shaft and the housing. To prevent the balls from running on the edges and uneven loading of the ball rows, the contact surfaces on the shaft and in the bearing housing must be machined strictly at right angles to the bearing axis.
The bearing complies with the standard tolerances P0 or PN and ABEC 1. This standard precision meets the requirements of general mechanical engineering and industrial gearboxes. It contributes to a defined fit accuracy with standardised shaft and housing tolerances in accordance with the manufacturer’s specifications.
