Product Overview: The 5316 Double Row Angular Contact Ball Bearing
The 5316 bearing is a high-capacity component from our 5300 Series, designed for applications requiring robust support for combined radial and axial loads in both directions. As a type of Angular Contact Ball Bearing, its double row design is equivalent to two single row angular contact ball bearings arranged back-to-back, but with a narrower width, providing a compact and rigid bearing solution. With core dimensions of 80x170x68.3mm, the 5316 is engineered for superior performance and stability in demanding industrial environments.
Manufactured to precise industry standards, this bearing is an excellent choice for machinery where shaft rigidity and resistance to tilting moments are critical. Its internal construction allows it to handle heavy loads and maintain rotational accuracy, making it indispensable in a wide array of heavy-duty equipment. Explore our full range of angular contact ball bearings to find the optimal solution for your mechanical needs.
Key Features of the 5316 Bearing
- Double Row Design: Provides high load-carrying capacity in a compact axial space, effectively handling both radial and bidirectional axial loads.
- High Rigidity: The back-to-back arrangement of the internal raceways offers excellent stiffness, making it ideal for applications where minimal shaft deflection is required.
- Combined Load Capability: Engineered to accommodate complex load scenarios involving simultaneous radial and axial forces.
- Precision Engineering: Manufactured from high-quality bearing steel to ensure dimensional accuracy, smooth operation, and extended service life.
- Fixed Contact Angle: The design incorporates a fixed contact angle to manage loads effectively and ensure stable performance.
- Space-Efficient: Offers the performance of two single-row bearings in a more compact, single-unit design, simplifying assembly and saving space.
Common Applications
- Industrial Gearboxes: Provides the necessary rigidity and load support for gear shafts, ensuring precise mesh and reliable transmission.
- Pumps and Compressors: Used to support rotating shafts, handling the significant radial and axial forces common in fluid machinery.
- Machine Tool Spindles: Offers the high degree of running accuracy and stiffness required for precision cutting and milling operations.
- Lifting Equipment and Cranes: Supports rotating components in hoists, winches, and crane swivels, where heavy, combined loads are standard.
- Heavy-Duty Fans and Blowers: Ensures stable and reliable operation of industrial fan shafts under continuous, heavy loading.
- Agricultural Machinery: Suitable for use in demanding applications like transmissions and power take-off units in tractors and harvesters.
