Axial Deep Groove Ball B. SKF 53211

The SKF 53211 axial deep-groove ball bearing, measuring 55 × 90 × 27.3 mm, accommodates unidirectional axial loads and can be fitted with an angle-adjustable washer.

The SKF 53211 axial deep groove ball bearing accommodates purely axial loads in one direction. With a bore of 55 mm, an outside diameter of 90 mm and a height of 27.3 mm, this single-acting rolling bearing is suitable for specific axial guidance applications. Manufactured from standard rolling-bearing steel (100Cr6) and fitted with a sheet steel cage, this design is rated for operating temperatures ranging from –30 to +150 degrees. It is manufactured to tolerance class P0/PN or ABEC 1.

In which designs is the 53211 axial deep-groove ball bearing used?

This rolling bearing supports axial forces in one direction when no significant radial loads are acting on the bearing mounting. In such designs, radial forces must always be absorbed by separate radial bearings. Typical applications are found in general mechanical engineering for axial guidance and support tasks. Thanks to the spherical housing washer, the bearing is particularly suitable for designs where slight misalignments need to be compensated for.

When is an additional washer required for the 53211 axial deep groove ball bearing?

The spherical housing washer forms the basis for angular compensation. This product description includes only the axial deep groove ball bearing without a washer. If angular misalignment between the shaft and the housing surface occurs due to manufacturing or assembly, it is recommended to use a suitable hollow spherical washer. Only in combination with this washer does the bearing become angularly adjustable. Where housing surfaces have been machined to a precise right angle, direct installation without an additional element is possible.
