Product Overview: The AEL 206 Insert Ball Bearing
The AEL 206 is a reliable and easy-to-install insert bearing, a key component in our AEL/SA Series of Insert Ball Bearings. With a 30mm bore diameter, a 62mm outer diameter, and a 38.1mm inner ring width, this bearing is engineered for versatility. It features an extended inner ring on one side and an eccentric locking collar, which provides a simple, quick, and secure method of fastening the bearing to a shaft. Its spherical outer ring allows it to be mounted in various bearing housings, where it can compensate for initial static misalignment, simplifying the assembly process.
As a leading supplier of industrial parts, we ensure our AEL 206 bearings meet high-quality standards, making them suitable for a wide range of industrial and agricultural applications. They come pre-lubricated and sealed, offering a maintenance-free solution for many common machinery needs. Explore our extensive range of bearing housings to create a complete mounted bearing unit tailored to your specific requirements.
