SFR166 Bearing Product Overview & Core Advantages
The SFR166 is a single row deep groove ball bearing manufactured to inch dimensions, designed for high-performance applications requiring precision and reliability. Constructed entirely from stainless steel, it offers excellent corrosion resistance. This bearing is engineered to primarily support radial loads and is characterized by its compact design, making it ideal for space-constrained assemblies. Its ABEC1 precision class ensures consistent performance, while its open design allows for versatile lubrication options to suit specific operational needs.
SFR166 Bearing Model Code Explained, Specifications & Naming Convention
| Code Segment | Technical Meaning |
|---|---|
| SFR | Manufacturer's series prefix for a specific range of small, precision inch bearings. |
| 166 | The specific size designation within the SFR series. |
| Open (No Seal/Shield suffix) | The bearing is supplied without integral seals or shields, allowing for high-speed operation and custom lubrication. |
SFR166 Bearing Structural Features & Performance Benefits
- High Precision & Stability: Manufactured to ABEC1 tolerance class with a controlled radial internal clearance (MC3 group), ensuring smooth and precise operation with minimal runout.
- Corrosion Resistance: The use of stainless steel for all components (rings, balls, and cage) provides superior protection in harsh or wash-down environments, with a wide temperature range from -86 to 230 °F.
- Optimized Load Capacity: The deep groove raceway and complement of 8 precision balls enable efficient handling of the 122 lbf dynamic radial load rating.
- Compact & Lightweight Design: With a bore diameter of 0.1875" and a width of just 0.125", it offers a high load capacity in a minimal envelope, weighing only 0.9 grams.
