6700 Series Deep Groove Ball Bearing

Deep Groove Ball Bearing Description

Deep groove ball bearings have high speed and are widely used as radial bearings. These non-separable bearings are available in a wide variety of seal, shield and snap-ring arrangements. Deep Groove Ball Bearings are cost-effective and maintenance free. They are basically used when axial loads from two directions have to be transmitted & there is not enough space to allow installation of matched spindle bearings and when speed is less important when compared to required guidance of the rotating parts.

Physical Characteristics

• Comprises of deep uninterrupted raceways

• Ring grooves are circular arcs made slightly larger than the radius of the ball

• The balls make point contact with the raceways

• The inner ring shoulders are of equal height

Advantages of Deep Groove Ball Bearings

• Sustain radial, axial, or composite loads.

• Provide both high-running accuracy & high-speed operation

• Can replace high speed angular contact ball bearings

• Simple design

• Maintenance free

• Longer service life
