SKF Kullager, 170 mm ID, 260 mm UT, Löpring bredd 42 mm

Looking for a low-maintenance ball bearing to handle components at high speed? This versatile option from SKF will accommodate both radial and axial loads, so it can be used for a wide range of applications. It has an inside diameter of 170 mm and an outside diameter of 260 mm, with a race width of 42 mm. Open-type construction allows lubricant to travel freely and is easy to re-lubricate. Bearings of this type are suitable for clean environments where the working won't be contaminated by dust.

• Minimal friction torque for low operating temperatures

• Industrial fridges

Thanks to smooth raceways and precision balls, these bearings are highly energy efficient. They're also optimised for low noise.

Oils are preferred to greases for lubricating open bearings, due to their lower viscosity. This enables more efficient running with lower torque, resulting in higher speeds.
