51106 Bearing Product Overview & Core Advantages
The 51106 is a metric thrust ball bearing engineered for pure thrust applications requiring high precision and reliability. This bearing is characterized by its ability to accommodate high axial dynamic loads while maintaining stable operation. Its compact design, featuring a single-direction thrust capacity, makes it an ideal solution for assemblies with limited axial space. Manufactured from high-grade 52100 Chrome Steel and featuring a stainless steel cage, it delivers consistent performance and extended service life in demanding environments.
51106 Bearing Model Code Explained, Specifications & Naming Convention
| Model Segment | Technical Meaning |
|---|---|
| 51106 | Standard designation for a metric thrust ball bearing with a 30mm bore diameter. |
| Open (Seal Type) | The bearing is supplied without seals or shields, allowing for higher limiting speeds and facilitating relubrication if required by the application. |
51106 Bearing Structural Features & Performance Benefits
- High Load Capacity: The bearing's geometry and use of chrome steel components enable it to support a high axial dynamic load rating of 4275 lbf and an even greater axial static load rating of 9675 lbf, making it robust for heavy thrust applications.
- Precision & Stability: Manufactured with tight dimensional tolerances on the bore, outside diameter, and width, ensuring precise fit and reliable performance in high-accuracy assemblies.
- High-Speed Capability: The stainless steel cage provides strength and reduced friction, contributing to a high limiting speed of 8,500 rpm.
- Durability & Compliance: Constructed from 52100 Chrome Steel for both rings and balls, offering excellent wear resistance. The bearing is compliant with ROHS and REACH environmental standards.
51106 Bearing Typical Application Areas
- Automotive Transmissions: For thrust support in gear assemblies.
- Machine Tool Spindles: To handle axial forces in precision machining centers.
- Pumps and Compressors: For axial positioning and load carrying in rotating shafts.
