Deep Groove Ball Bearings SKF 6317 M

The SKF 6317 M deep groove ball bearing, measuring 85x180x41 mm and featuring a solid brass cage, offers a robust solution for high mechanical loads.

The SKF 6317 M deep groove ball bearing is a single-row rolling bearing in the Explorer design. With a bore of 85 mm, an outside diameter of 180 mm and a width of 41 mm, the component accommodates radial loads as well as axial forces in both directions. Manufactured from standard 100Cr6 rolling-element bearing steel and fitted with standard radial clearance, it complies with tolerance class P0/PN or ABEC 1.

In which applications is the open deep-groove ball bearing 6317 M used?

This rolling bearing is suitable for designs subject to combined radial and axial loads at medium to high speeds. As it is an open bearing without integrated seals, lubrication is provided directly via the surrounding machine housing using oil or grease. The permissible temperature range extends from –20 to +150 degrees Celsius, enabling the component to operate in thermally demanding environmental conditions.

What functional properties does the solid brass cage offer?

The suffix ‘M’ denotes the solid brass cage, which guides the rolling elements precisely. Compared to sheet metal cages, brass offers enhanced resistance to vibrations, high accelerations and shock loads. As the outer ring is designed without a flange or groove, a housing seal fitted on site ensures that contaminants are kept out of the bearing interior.
