Deep groove ball bearing FAG 16032-M-C3, Outer diameter: 240 mm | Width: 25 mm | Inner diameter: 160 mm

This FAG single-row ball bearing features a brass cage and C3 radial clearance. The brass cage provides enhanced resistance to shocks and high temperatures, while the C3 radial clearance compensates for thermal expansion and reduces friction, thereby improving high-speed performance. Designed to withstand radial and axial loads in both directions, this bearing is ideal for applications requiring high precision and robustness. Its open design allows it to operate at high speeds while minimizing internal friction.

Features:
This ball bearing features a brass cage, which ensures optimal resistance to temperature fluctuations and heavy loads. It provides enhanced stability under intense loads and reduces wear by limiting deformation under stress. This design guarantees extended durability and increased reliability in demanding applications. Its C3 internal radial clearance allows it to absorb thermal expansion while reducing friction, thereby enabling high rotational speeds. It operates without seals, making it easier to maintain and reducing friction. It is particularly well-suited for systems requiring efficient cooling or direct access to components.

Maintenance:
Regular lubrication is essential to ensure optimal operation and extend the bearing’s service life. The use of grease or oil compatible with the operating environment is recommended to minimize wear. Periodic inspections should be conducted to check the lubrication condition, noise levels, and the presence of any vibrations. Thorough cleaning must be performed during maintenance operations to prevent contamination.

Sealing:
This ball bearing has no seals, making it more vulnerable to external contaminants, such as dust or liquids. However, this open design facilitates maintenance and allows for efficient cooling. It is recommended to use it in clean, controlled environments to ensure its long-term performance. Proper lubrication is necessary to compensate for the lack of protection against external contaminants.
