Low-friction bearing solutions for motors, pumps, conveyors and general machinery. Shop deep groove ball bearings in open, shielded and sealed designs from recognised industrial brands. Filter the range by bore diameter, outside diameter, width, closure type, internal clearance and brand, then confirm the complete bearing number and manufacturer suffix before ordering.

Choose the Right Deep Groove Ball Bearing

Deep groove ball bearings are versatile, self-retaining bearings used where reliable rotation, relatively low friction and high-speed capability are required. They primarily carry radial loads and can also support moderate axial loads in either direction. Common applications include electric motors, pumps, fans, conveyors, gearboxes, agricultural machinery and workshop equipment.

Start with the identification number on the original bearing or the equipment documentation. If that information is unavailable, compare the bore diameter, outside diameter and width, followed by the closure, internal clearance, load, speed and operating environment. Bearings with the same principal dimensions are not automatically interchangeable: sealing, clearance, cage design and performance ratings may differ.

Open, Shielded and Sealed Bearings

  • Open bearings have minimal rotational resistance and suit clean housings or applications with separately managed lubrication.
  • Shielded bearings, commonly identified by Z, ZZ or 2Z suffixes, help exclude larger contaminants while retaining good speed capability.
  • Sealed bearings, often identified by RS or 2RS suffixes, provide increased protection against dust and moisture. Manufacturer suffix conventions vary, so check each product specification.

Understanding Internal Clearance

Standard-clearance bearings suit many general applications. C3 and C4 identify progressively greater internal radial clearance; they are not quality grades. Increased clearance may be specified where heat, speed or interference fits reduce operating clearance. Use the clearance stated by the machinery or bearing manufacturer rather than automatically upgrading to C3.
