Deep Groove Ball Bearings FAG 6226

The FAG 6226 deep-groove ball bearing is an open, single-row rolling bearing measuring 130 x 230 x 40 mm, designed to withstand radial loads.

The 6226 deep-groove ball bearing is a classic rolling bearing designed for demanding industrial applications with a shaft diameter of 130 mm. Manufactured from standard roller bearing steel 100Cr6, this single-row bearing withstands high radial forces whilst simultaneously supporting axial forces in both directions. The open design, without integrated sealing washers, allows for flexible lubrication with oil or grease within protected housings.

What are the industrial applications for the 6226 deep groove ball bearing?

The 6226 deep groove ball bearing is primarily used in industrial drives, heavy machinery and rotating systems with a shaft diameter of 130 mm. With a continuous supply of lubricant via external lubrication systems, the open design is particularly suitable for higher operating speeds, as the absence of contact seals means no additional frictional heat is generated. The precisely guided sheet steel cage maintains a uniform spacing between the rolling elements and effectively reduces rolling resistance.

What are the distinctive features of the open design of the 6226 bearing?

In the open design, the surrounding housing structure provides protection against the ingress of dirt particles or moisture. This design allows for unimpeded lubricant circulation around the rolling elements and raceways. With the standard radial clearance and standard tolerance class P0 (ABEC 1), the bearing is designed for common fits and thermal conditions between –30 and +150 degrees Celsius. The outer ring is cylindrical in design, without a flange or groove, and sits flush with the bearing seat.
