Deep groove ball bearing SKF 6224/C3VL0241, Outer diameter: 215 mm | Width: 40 mm | Inner diameter: 120 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, ability to operate at high speeds, and low maintenance requirements.

This deep-groove ball bearing is designed to deliver high performance in demanding environments. Thanks to its electrical insulation provided by a ceramic coating, it is perfectly suited for applications that require both enhanced protection against electrical currents and high load-carrying capacity. Ideal for high-speed equipment, this product features increased radial clearance (C3), ensuring maximum reliability even under intense operating conditions.

Features:
This SKF ball bearing is a single-row, open design with a ceramic coating. The integrated electrical insulation limits the risk of damage caused by stray currents, protecting components and extending the bearing’s service life. With its C3 internal radial clearance, this bearing ensures low friction even at high speeds and compensates for thermal deformation. Its sheet steel cage helps maintain optimal strength under high radial loads and moderate axial loads, thus providing reliable protection in high-intensity environments.

Maintenance:
The absence of seals simplifies access for maintenance but requires regular attention to maintain performance. It is recommended to perform periodic lubrication with a lubricant suitable for the operating conditions, particularly to prevent premature wear of components. This deep-groove ball bearing should be checked regularly for noise, temperature, and the condition of the raceways to detect early signs of wear.

Sealing:
This bearing has an open design and does not feature a sealed protection against contaminants. Without seals, it remains exposed to dust, particles, and liquids in the environment. This means it is more susceptible to dirt ingress or lubricant loss. It is therefore recommended for clean or controlled environments where exposure to contaminants is limited.

Key Features:
• Ceramic electrical insulation for optimal protection against stray currents
• Increased clearance (C3) allowing for high speeds and compensating for thermal expansion.
• Low friction and low resistance torque, ensuring smooth rotation.
• Open design facilitating maintenance and regular inspection.
• Sheet steel cage, enhancing resistance to high radial loads and impacts.

Applications:
This single-row bearing is particularly well-suited for electric motors, fans, and other high-speed rotating equipment that require electrical insulation to prevent leakage currents. It is also ideal for machine tools in clean, dry environments where cooling and access for maintenance are essential.
