Groefkogellager FAG 16021-C3, Buitendiameter: 160 mm | Breedte: 18 mm | Binnendiameter: 105 mm

Ball bearings are essential mechanical components that reduce friction and support various loads in a wide range of industrial applications. Among them, deep-groove ball bearings stand out for their versatility, their ability to operate at high speeds, and their low maintenance requirements.

Reliable and high-performance, this FAG rigid ball bearing is suitable for a wide range of industrial environments. Thanks to its open design, it facilitates installation and offers low friction, making it particularly effective for high-speed applications. It is designed to withstand radial and axial loads in both directions, providing excellent versatility.

Features:
This single-row ball bearing features a sheet steel cage and has an internal radial clearance of C3, providing increased space between the balls and the raceways. This configuration reduces internal friction, allowing for high rotational speeds. It is capable of withstanding high radial loads as well as moderate axial loads. Its cage ensures reliable resistance to continuous loads while effectively absorbing shocks and temporary overloads. The absence of seals makes it suitable for clean environments where optimal cooling is required.

Maintenance:
Maintenance of this bearing requires regular lubrication to ensure smooth operation and extend its service life. It is essential to use high-quality lubricants suited to the specific operating conditions. Periodic inspections for noise, temperature, and vibration are recommended to quickly detect any abnormalities. If signs of wear appear, prompt replacement is advised to prevent further damage to the equipment.

Sealing:
This is an open-type bearing with no seals, which means it offers no protection against external contaminants such as dust or moisture. Therefore, it is best to use it in clean, controlled environments to prevent the ingress of dirt and debris.

Brand Information:
FAG, a brand of the Schaeffler Group, is a global leader in the manufacture of bearings and guidance solutions for industrial and automotive applications. With a long history of expertise, it stands out for its cutting-edge technologies that ensure reliability, performance, and longevity.
