Deep Groove Ball Bearings FAG 6022 -C3

The FAG 6022-C3 deep-groove ball bearing, measuring 110 x 170 x 28 mm and featuring increased clearance, ensures stable operation under thermal loads.

The FAG 6022-C3 deep groove ball bearing is a single-row rolling bearing made from standard 100Cr6 bearing steel for demanding industrial applications. With a bore of 110 mm, an outside diameter of 170 mm and a width of 28 mm, this open bearing primarily accommodates radial loads as well as moderate axial forces. Thanks to its sheet steel cage and operating temperature range of –20 to +150 degrees, the component retains its dimensional stability. It complies with tolerance class P0/PN or ABEC 1.

In which applications does the 6022-C3 deep groove ball bearing prove its worth?

This bearing is suitable for shaft mountings with a diameter of 110 mm, where radial forces are transmitted and elevated operating temperatures may occur. As no sealing washers are fitted, liquid lubricant circulates unhindered between the rolling elements. This is particularly advantageous for applications with centralised oil circulation lubrication or enclosed machine housings. Design engineers use this design where the housing environment prevents the ingress of dirt and low friction losses are required.

What does the increased bearing clearance C3 mean for the 6022 model?

The suffix C3 indicates a slightly increased radial bearing clearance compared with the standard version. This additional bearing clearance serves to compensate for operational thermal expansion when temperature differences occur between the shaft and the housing. It also cushions the expansion of the inner ring in the case of tight fits. When designing the application, please note that the open bearing must be protected against contamination by external housing seals, as no sealing protection is provided ex works.
