Product Overview: The UK 205 Insert Ball Bearing
The UK 205 is a high-performance insert ball bearing featuring a 25mm tapered bore, a 52mm outer diameter, and a 34.1mm width. As a key component in our UK 200 Series, this bearing is specifically designed for secure mounting on shafts using a compatible H 2305 adapter sleeve. The tapered bore ensures a tight, concentric fit, preventing slippage and providing excellent stability under various load conditions. Part of the broader Insert Ball Bearings category, its spherical outer ring allows for initial static misalignment, making it an ideal solution for applications where perfect alignment is challenging to achieve.
Key Features of the UK 205 Bearing
- Tapered Bore: Designed for use with an adapter sleeve, providing a strong and uniform grip on the shaft.
- Self-Aligning Capability: The spherical outer surface compensates for initial shaft misalignment when mounted in a suitable housing.
- Robust Construction: Manufactured from high-quality bearing steel for superior durability and resistance to wear and fatigue.
- Adapter Sleeve Mounting: Ensures easy and secure installation and dismounting from commercial-grade shafts.
- Pre-Lubricated and Sealed: Comes lubricated and sealed from the factory to protect against contaminants and reduce maintenance needs.
- High Performance: Engineered for reliable operation in a wide range of industrial and agricultural environments.
Common Applications
