Deep groove ball bearing FAG 6006-MA-C3, Outer diameter: 55 mm | Width: 13 mm | Inner diameter: 30 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.

This FAG brand deep groove ball bearing features a solid brass cage guided on the outer ring, which ensures increased stability and improved shock resistance. Its C3 internal radial clearance allows for high speeds and provides good tolerance to thermal expansion. Designed to withstand radial and axial loads in both directions, it offers great versatility in use.

Features:
This single-row ball bearing features a solid brass cage guided on the outer ring, which enhances its robustness and durability. The C3 internal radial clearance minimizes friction, thereby enabling high speeds while improving tolerance to thermal expansion. Its open design simplifies installation, ensuring quick and efficient integration. Designed to withstand heavy radial loads and moderate axial loads in both directions, it is suitable for a variety of industrial applications.

Maintenance:
The absence of seals on this bearing requires special attention to lubrication. It is essential to maintain adequate lubrication, whether through grease or oil, depending on operating conditions. Regular inspections of key parameters, such as noise, temperature, lubrication, and vibration, are recommended to quickly detect any anomalies or signs of malfunction. If signs of wear or failure are observed, prompt replacement is advised to prevent further damage to the equipment. During maintenance operations, it is crucial to maintain a clean environment to reduce the risk of contamination.

Sealing:
This bearing has an open design with no seals, which means it offers no protection against external contaminants such as dust, particles, or liquids. Due to this lack of protection, it is exposed to its environment, which can lead to the ingress of dirt and debris, as well as lubricant leaks. It is therefore primarily used in applications where operating conditions are clean and controlled. Its open design, however, facilitates access for maintenance.

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

Key Benefits:
- Withstands radial and axial loads in both directions.
