SKF 624 Single Row Deep Groove Ball Bearing- Open Type 4mm I.D, 13mm O.D

This range of ball bearings from SKF are deep groove metric ball bearings with an open end. They are extremely versatile for a wide range of applications.
SKF single row, deep groove ball bearings are available with an inner diameter from 3mm to 95mm, so you will be sure to find a ball bearing for your application.

Why Choose an Open Ended Ball Bearing?
Open bearings have an open side where the balls are visible. This means they do not have a seal or shield. Open bearings are ideal for environments where they won’t come into contact with dirt as this could disrupt the bearing. Open ball bearings instead allow the lubricant inside to travel freely around the bearing for smooth running.

Why Choose a Single Row Deep Groove Ball Bearing?
This type of ball bearing it often the most popular because of its versatility. They are ideal for high speeds and can handle a good radial load capacity, all will very little maintenance required.
“Deep Groove” refers to the race (the groove where the balls rest). There is therefore a larger space between the inner and outer rings, than the diameter of the ball. This leaves space for the rubber seals.

Why choose a steel ball bearing?
Steel is the perfect material for ball bearings as it provides strength and reliability whilst being corrosion-resistant. Steel ball bearings are suitable for installing as they require very little maintenance and are designed to last.

Use this deep-groove ball bearing from SKF when you need to support a combined radial and axial load. For reliability with fast-paced applications, it runs at high reference speeds of up to 110,000 r/min. The open-end design means it's suitable for environments where you don't need to worry about dust and dirt contaminating the inside of the bearing, and the lubricant can circulate freely to optimise performance. As this is a single-row ball bearing, it operates at low temperatures, which calls for minimal maintenance and offers a long service life. Weighing just 3.1g, this unit will add minimal strain to your setup.

• Parallel bore makes for easy installation on a shaft without the need for a bearing sleeve
• Steel construction combines strength with corrosion resistance

• Medical equipment
• Automation control
• Engineering machinery

A radial load acts at a right angle to the bearing's axis of rotation, while an axial load acts parallel to the axis. Thanks to the deep-groove construction, this ball bearing can handle a limited axial load alongside a heavier radial load.
