A special feature of SS16 series stainless steel deep groove ball bearings

Main dimensions according to DIN 625-1.Stainless steel ball bearings of this series are corrosion-resistant. They are particularly narrow at the same inside diameter compared to deep groove ball bearings of the 60, 62, 63 and 64 series. They are especially suitable if the installation space in the axial direction is confined and nevertheless preferably high load-ratings are supposed to be reached. In comparison to deep groove ball bearings of the 62 light series they withstand higher speeds at the same inside diameter and only weigh half of them.

Seals

Rubber seals (RS/2RS) have the optimum sealing action with increased friction. Metal seals (Z/ZZ) are suitable for higher speeds, but they have a limited sealing action as they seal contactless. Open, seal-less bearings are suitable for extremely high speeds and – furthermore – they can be regreased more easily. However, they are more susceptible to soiling.

Features

• all components are made of stainless steel: the deep groove ball bearing is, therefore, corrosion-resistant and hygienic
• thin section bearing with an ultra-thin, square cross-section
• suitable for space-saving installation in radial and axial directions
• suitable for extremely high speeds compared to deep groove ball bearings with a larger cross-section
• extra light series with compact dimensions and low weight
• suitable for radial loads and light axial loads in both directions
• offers high running accuracy, quiet running, and very high speeds
• seal: contact lip seal on both sides made of rubber (2RS) for high sealing effect
• good fixed bearing property, but can also be used as a floating bearing, each in both directions

Manufacturers of bearings: such as FAG, KOYO, NSK, SKF, SNR, etc. assign different suffixes for their characteristics, for better orientation take note of the comparison table of bearings (see further information)

Can be customized to meet your specific needs.
