51228 Bearing Product Overview & Core Advantages
The 51228 thrust ball bearing is a metric system component engineered for applications requiring high axial load capacity and precision. As a dedicated thrust bearing, it is specifically designed to accommodate heavy axial loads in a single direction, making it ideal for high-reliability scenarios where space constraints and precise axial positioning are critical. Its robust construction from 52100 Chrome Steel ensures excellent durability and performance under demanding conditions.
51228 Bearing Model Code Explained, Specifications & Naming Convention
| Code Segment | Technical Interpretation |
|---|---|
| 51228 | Standard model number for a thrust ball bearing with a 140mm bore diameter. |
| Open (Seal Type) | No contact seals, allowing for higher speed capabilities and requiring an external sealing solution in contaminated environments. |
51228 Bearing Structural Features & Performance Benefits
- High Axial Load Capacity: Engineered with 52100 Chrome Steel rings and balls, this bearing delivers a high axial dynamic load rating of 46,800 lbf and an exceptional axial static load rating of 141,750 lbf, providing reliable performance under significant thrust forces.
- Precision and Stability: Features tight dimensional tolerances on the bore diameter and outside diameter, ensuring precise fitment and stable operation in the assembly.
- High-Speed Capability: The stainless steel cage and open design contribute to a limiting speed of 1,900 rpm, suitable for various high-speed applications.
- Durability and Corrosion Resistance: The stainless steel cage offers excellent corrosion resistance, while the hardened steel components provide long service life.
- Compliance and Safety: The bearing is compliant with ROHS and REACH regulations, ensuring it meets international environmental and safety standards.
