52215 Bearing Product Overview & Core Advantages
The 52215 is a metric thrust ball bearing engineered for applications requiring precise axial load handling. This open-type bearing is designed to accommodate unidirectional thrust loads with high efficiency. Manufactured from high-grade chrome steel for both rings and balls, it delivers excellent durability and wear resistance. Its compact design and precise dimensional tolerances make it ideal for high-reliability installations where space is constrained and axial load capacity is critical.
52215 Bearing Model Code Explained, Specifications & Naming Convention
| Code Segment | Technical Meaning |
|---|---|
| 52 | Indicates a thrust ball bearing series with a flat housing washer and shaft washer. |
| 215 | Specifies the bore diameter of 60 mm and the overall dimensional series. |
| Open (Seal Type) | No seals or shields, allowing for higher speed operation and easy re-lubrication if required. |
52215 Bearing Structural Features & Performance Benefits
- High Load Capacity: The bearing's geometry and use of chrome steel components enable a high axial dynamic load rating of 14,332 lbf and an axial static load rating of 38,250 lbf, making it robust for demanding thrust applications.
- Precision & Rigidity: Manufactured with tight dimensional tolerances (bore: -0.015mm to 0) and a stainless steel cage, it ensures stable operation, minimizes vibration, and maintains alignment under load.
- Speed Performance: The open design and optimized cage contribute to a limiting speed of 2,600 rpm, suitable for various industrial speeds.
- Durability & Compliance: Constructed entirely from chrome steel (rings and balls) with a corrosion-resistant stainless steel cage. It is compliant with ROHS and REACH regulations, ensuring environmental safety.
