Deep Groove Ball Bearings FAG 6316

The FAG 6316 deep-groove ball bearing is an open, single-row rolling bearing with main dimensions of 80 x 170 x 39 mm, designed for a wide range of industrial applications.

This 6316 deep groove ball bearing is manufactured by FAG and is designed to accommodate predominantly radial loads as well as axial loads acting in both directions. Manufactured from standard 100Cr6 bearing steel, this solid unit is characterised by dimensional stability and smooth running. With a bore of 80 mm, an outside diameter of 170 mm and a width of 39 mm, this rolling bearing fits precisely into the corresponding bearing seats. Thanks to its standard radial clearance, it is suitable for proven standard operating conditions in mechanical engineering.

What loads can the 6316 deep groove ball bearing withstand?

The 6316 deep groove ball bearing is used wherever designs require high radial loads with moderate axial forces. Typical applications include rotating shaft assemblies in general mechanical engineering. As the bearing is designed without an integrated seal, it can be incorporated into enclosed housings where an existing oil or grease circuit provides the lubrication and protects the interior of the bearing from contamination.

What are the key features of the open design with a sheet steel cage?

The open design allows for a direct supply of lubricants from the system and reduces internal friction compared with contact-sealed variants. A robust sheet steel cage reliably maintains the spacing between the rolling elements and ensures smooth running. Designed for temperature ranges from –20 to +150 degrees, the bearing is suitable for thermally demanding operating conditions. An external housing seal must be fitted to prevent the ingress of particles and moisture.
