SKF 61816 1 Row Deep Groove Ball Bearing - 80 mm ID, 100 mm OD

This deep-groove ball bearing serves as a running element for rotary assemblies in automation, electrical and mechanical equipment, providing smooth radial support in medium-speed applications. It is an open-ended, single-row design with a cylindrical inner bore and steel rolling elements guided by a sheet-metal retaining cage, intended for environments where straightforward assembly and reliable rotation are required.

• Dynamic load capacity 12.7 kN for sustained operational loads
• Static load capacity 11.2 kN to resist stationary forces
• Limiting speed 8,000 r/min for moderate to high-speed shafts
• Internal clearance CN to accommodate thermal and alignment variations
• Single-row geometry for Compact radial support
• Open-end configuration for straightforward inspection and lubrication

• Suitable for motor shafts in industrial automation modules
• Ideal for spindle support in Electronic Assembly machinery
• Used with gearboxes in electrical drive units
• Can be used for pulley and conveyor idler shafts in mechanical systems

The balls are manufactured from steel, offering hardness and fatigue resistance suitable for typical rotating applications.

The sheet-metal cage provides reliable ball separation with low debris accumulation, simplifying Visual inspection and routine relubrication.

A cylindrical bore is specified, so shafts should be machined and toleranced for a plain journal fit consistent with press or slip-fit assembly methods.

The open design permits direct application of lubricants and Visual checks, facilitating periodic relubrication without disassembly.

The CN internal clearance suits assemblies where moderate shaft growth and misalignment must be accommodated without excessive endplay.
