Deep Groove Ball Bearings SKF 16005

The SKF 16005 deep groove ball bearing, with dimensions of 25x47x8 mm, offers compact dimensions and enhanced P6 and P5 precision for demanding radial loads.

The 16005 deep groove ball bearing is a single-row radial ball bearing with a 25 mm bore, a 47 mm outer diameter and an 8 mm width. Manufactured from 100Cr6 rolling-element bearing steel, it primarily accommodates radial forces and moderate axial loads in both directions. The open design, without integrated sealing washers, allows for direct lubrication via the housing system. In the SKF Explorer version, this component features an optimised internal geometry.

In which applications is the narrow deep-groove ball bearing 16005 used?

This single-row bearing is primarily used where designs require narrow installation spaces with a small radial cross-section. Typical applications can be found in general mechanical engineering as well as in compact units where a clean installation environment with an external lubricant supply is available. Thanks to its temperature-stable operating range of -20 to +120 degrees, this design can be used in thermally demanding environments. The guided sheet steel cage maintains the rolling elements at a uniform distance and is suitable for medium to high speeds.

What advantages do tolerance classes P6 and P5 offer for bearing 16005?

In this rolling bearing, the design combines P6 dimensional accuracy with P5 running accuracy, which means tighter tolerances than those of the standard tolerance. The tighter dimensional control simplifies the design of a precise fit on the shaft and in the bearing housing. At the same time, the P5 running accuracy contributes to low-vibration operation, as radial and axial deviations of the inner ring are minimised. As this open design has no built-in protection against dust or moisture, operation within a protected housing is recommended.
