SFR144 Bearing Product Overview & Core Advantages
The SFR144 is a precision miniature ball bearing designed for demanding applications requiring high reliability in compact spaces. As an open, single row deep groove ball bearing, it excels at handling radial loads efficiently. Manufactured entirely from stainless steel, it offers excellent corrosion resistance. Its compact dimensions, with a bore of just 0.125", make it an ideal solution for high-speed, small-scale mechanisms where consistent performance is critical.
SFR144 Bearing Model Code Explained, Specifications & Naming Convention
| Code Segment | Technical Significance |
|---|---|
| SFR | Manufacturer's series designation for miniature flanged bearings. |
| 144 | Specific size code defining the bearing dimensions (0.125" bore, 0.25" OD). |
| Open (Seal Type) | No integral seals, allowing for higher limiting speeds and custom lubrication schemes. |
| ABEC1 | Tolerance class ensuring runout and dimensional precision for smooth operation. |
SFR144 Bearing Structural Features & Performance Benefits
- High-Speed Capability: The open design and stainless steel cage contribute to a very high limiting speed of 60,300 rpm, making it suitable for demanding rotary applications.
- Corrosion Resistance: Constructed entirely from stainless steel (rings, balls, and cage), this bearing is ideal for environments exposed to moisture or chemicals, operating within a temperature range of -86 to 230 °F.
- Precision Engineering: Manufactured to ABEC1 tolerance standards with a controlled radial internal clearance (MC3), ensuring smooth and quiet operation with minimal vibration.
- Flanged Design: The integrated flange (0.296" OD) simplifies mounting and positioning, providing accurate axial location within a housing.
- Dynamic Performance: With a dynamic load rating of 49 lbf, it offers reliable performance under significant radial loads for its size.
