Product Overview: AEL 205 Insert Ball Bearing
The AEL 205 is a high-performance insert ball bearing featuring a 25mm bore, 52mm outer diameter, and a total width of 34.1mm. As a key component in our Insert Ball Bearings collection, this bearing is engineered for simple and secure installation. It belongs to the versatile AEL/SA Series, distinguished by its eccentric locking collar mechanism which allows for quick and firm fastening to the shaft with a simple turn. The AEL 205 has a spherical outer ring, designed to fit into a variety of bearing housings and automatically correct for any initial shaft misalignment, ensuring smooth and efficient operation.
Built for reliability in demanding environments, the AEL 205 is pre-lubricated and sealed on both sides to protect against contaminants and retain grease, significantly reducing maintenance requirements. It is an ideal choice for creating economical and effective mounted bearing units for a wide range of industrial and agricultural applications.
Key Features of the AEL 205 Bearing
- Eccentric Locking Collar: Provides a simple, fast, and secure method for locking the bearing onto the shaft.
- Spherical Outer Surface: Allows the bearing to self-align within a housing, compensating for static angular misalignment.
- Sealed for Life: Equipped with integral seals on both sides to keep lubricants in and contaminants out, extending service life.
- Pre-Lubricated: Comes factory-filled with high-quality grease, making it ready for immediate installation.
- High-Quality Steel: Manufactured from premium bearing steel for enhanced durability and resistance to wear and fatigue.
- Standardized Dimensions: Fully interchangeable with other manufacturers' 205 series insert bearings for easy replacement.
