Deep groove ball bearing SKF 6315-2Z/C3WT, Outer diameter: 160 mm | Width: 37 mm | Inner diameter: 75 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.

The robust design and reliable performance of this deep groove ball bearing make it a preferred choice for high-speed machinery. Thanks to its increased clearance, this bearing ensures excellent heat dissipation, optimizing equipment efficiency and durability. It stands out for its ability to withstand both radial and axial loads, ensuring smooth and reliable operation in demanding environments.

Features:
This deep-groove ball bearing consists of a single row of balls and incorporates metal shields that provide enhanced protection against contaminants. Designed with an internal radial clearance of C3, it features a slight gap between the balls and the raceways, which reduces internal friction and promotes better performance at high speeds. It is lubricated with a grease containing a polyurea thickener with a consistency of 2 to 3 according to the NLGI classification, suitable for temperatures ranging from -40 to +160 °C.

Maintenance:
This ball bearing requires little maintenance thanks to its optimized design. It is lubricated for life with high-quality grease, eliminating the need for relubrication. However, it is recommended to perform regular inspections to monitor the product’s overall condition, paying attention to abnormal noises, operating temperature, and structural integrity.

Sealing:
The metal shields on either side of the bearing provide partial sealing, effectively protecting against medium-sized solid contaminants. This mechanical barrier is effective at reducing debris intrusion but does not guarantee complete protection against small particles or liquids. In dusty or humid environments, this limitation must be taken into account to ensure optimal bearing service life.
