SF055AR0 Bearing Product Overview & Core Advantages
The SF055AR0 is a thin section angular contact ball bearing engineered for precision applications requiring high rigidity and accurate motion control. Manufactured from stainless steel with a 30° contact angle, this single-row bearing is specifically designed to handle combined loads, supporting significant radial and axial forces simultaneously. Its Reali-Slim cross-section provides a compact, lightweight solution without compromising performance, making it ideal for space-constrained, high-reliability systems. The bearing comes pre-lubricated and features an open design for easy maintenance and integration.

SF055AR0 Bearing Structural Features & Performance Benefits
High Rigidity & Load Capacity: The angular contact design with a 30° contact angle provides exceptional rigidity, enabling the bearing to withstand combined radial and axial loads efficiently. With a radial dynamic load rating of 4319 lbf and axial static load rating of 10060 lbf, it delivers reliable performance in demanding applications.
Precision Engineering: Manufactured to ABEC-1 tolerance class with tight dimensional control (bore and OD tolerance: -0.0010" to 0"), this bearing ensures smooth operation and precise positioning. The minimal radial internal clearance (0.0000" – 0.0005") contributes to reduced vibration and enhanced accuracy.
Corrosion Resistance & Durability: Constructed entirely from stainless steel components (rings and balls) with a brass cage, the SF055AR0 offers excellent corrosion resistance and longevity, suitable for operation in harsh environments within a temperature range of -30°C to 110°C.
Space-Saving Design: The thin-section profile (0.75" width) provides a high load capacity relative to its cross-section, optimizing space and weight (2.59 lbs) in compact machinery designs.
