SKF 61838M Deep Groove Ball Bearings Ceramic for High Speed Deep Groove Ball Needle for Heavy Duty

Deep groove ball bearing with seals or shields

Single row deep groove ball bearings with seals or shields are particularly versatile, have low friction and are optimized for low noise and low vibration, which enables high rotational speeds. 

They accommodate radial and axial loads in both directions, are easy to mount, and require less maintenance than many other bearing types. 

The integral sealing can significantly prolong bearing service life because it keeps lubricant in the bearings and contaminants out. 

Integral sealing prolongs bearing service life, simple, versatile, robust design low friction, high-speed  makes radial and axial load in both directions, so it requires little maintenance.

SKF 61838M Deep Groove Ball Bearings

The SKF 61838M is a high-performance, single-row deep groove ball bearing designed for high-speed and high-load applications. 

With a machined brass cage (denoted by "M"), this bearing provides excellent stability and load-carrying capacity, 

making it ideal for demanding environments where reliability and performance are crucial.

Main Specifications

• Inner Diameter (d): 190 mm

• Outer Diameter (D): 240 mm

• Width (B): 24 mm

• Dynamic Load Rating (C): Capacity to support dynamic loads under continuous operation (specific values available in SKF datasheets).

• Static Load Rating (C₀): The bearing’s ability to withstand stationary loads without permanent deformation (refer to SKF technical documentation).

• Limiting Speed: Maximum operational speed depends on the lubrication type (oil or grease) and application conditions.

Key Features

• Single Row Design: Suitable for handling radial loads with the ability to support light axial loads in both directions.

• Machined Brass Cage (M): The brass cage ensures better performance under high-speed and high-load conditions, providing durability and stability.

• Open Type: The open design allows for external lubrication, which is essential for high-speed applications.

• Material: Manufactured from high-quality steel for wear resistance and long service life.

• Low Friction: Designed to minimize friction, reducing heat generation and energy consumption, resulting in improved operational efficiency.
