Deep Groove Ball Bearings FAG 6014 -C4

The FAG 6014-C4 deep-groove ball bearing, with dimensions of 70x110x20 mm and a C4 clearance, offers predictable running characteristics under thermal expansion.

The 6014-C4 deep-groove ball bearing is a single-row rolling bearing from FAG, manufactured from standard 100Cr6 bearing steel. The open design accommodates radial loads as well as axial forces in both directions. Thanks to the sheet steel cage, the bearing guides the rolling elements evenly into the deep raceways. The permissible temperature range extends from –30 to +150 degrees, resulting in a wide range of applications in industrial drive technology and maintenance.

What is the 6014-C4 deep groove ball bearing suitable for in operation?

This radial ball bearing is primarily used in industrial drives, gearboxes and rotating shafts where, due to operational conditions, higher temperatures or temperature differences between the shaft and housing occur. As there are no integrated seals, the rolling bearing can be flexibly lubricated with oil or grease via the surrounding unit. The design without a flange on the outer ring allows for direct mounting in cylindrical housing bores.

When is the increased bearing clearance C4 required for size 6014?

The designation C4 indicates a significantly increased radial bearing clearance, which exceeds the range of normal bearing clearance and that of class C3. Select this variant if tight fits on the shaft and housing reduce the radial clearance. Even if the inner ring heats up rapidly, there remains sufficient clearance to prevent the rolling elements from seizing. The bearings are manufactured to standard tolerance class P0 (ABEC 1).
