Factors to Consider When Selecting Deep Groove Ball Bearings
Deep groove ball bearings are suitable for many different applications, so the range of operating conditions and application needs is large and varied. When designing, many factors must be considered when selecting the right deep groove ball bearings for your application.
Depending on your installation space and needs, load capacity needs, speed, alignment issues, vibration and noise tolerance, precision and accuracy concerns, and operating environment, different materials, configurations, and customizations can be made to ensure the right fit for your manufacturing, automation, or operating system.
Installation Space
The installation space is typically fixed within the application, so any deep groove ball bearing that will be used needs to fit. Assess the available space to determine the bore size, outer diameter, and width.
Load Rating
Once you have determined the available space, look for bearings with load ratings that will fit your needs. If the bearing cannot support the load, the lifespan of the bearing and the system as a whole can be significantly reduced. Double-row deep groove ball bearings have higher load capacities than single-row deep groove ball bearings and may be the better choice for applications with a high load capacity.
Speed
The bearing, size, cage style, and lubrication will all impact the speed at which a deep groove ball bearing can operate. When choosing a deep groove ball bearing for your application, make sure to take the speed needs into consideration. Deep groove ball bearings are typically able to achieve the highest permissible speeds.
Misalignment
The inner and outer rings are always slightly askew but should not be tilted. If the shaft is deformed due to overloading or errors in the design of the complete automation system, this must be addressed. Different deep groove ball-bearing options can be used when more skewing is required.
Rigidity
When high rigidity is needed, the bearing needs will often change. The relationship between the bearing load and the elastic deformation of the inner and outer rings and rolling elements is called bearing rigidity. Preloading deep groove ball bearings can increase rigidity for applications that demand a higher level.
Running Noise
Deep groove ball bearings are recommended for use in applications where minimal running noise and vibration are a concern. Many electric motors and measuring devices have low tolerances for running noise and vibration, making deep groove ball bearings a good fit for these applications.

Accuracy
Many applications require a high degree of precision and accuracy during operation. There are several ways to determine how accurate deep groove ball bearings will run. When higher levels of precision are required, deep groove ball bearings are often the best choice.
Installation Concerns
Installation and maintenance methods will vary depending on where and how the system is installed. Bearings that can be taken apart are easier to install and remove, whereas other bearing types require more skill to mount.
Deep Groove Ball Bearing Options
Selecting deep groove ball bearings offers different options. They can be customized to meet the needs of many different applications.
Single-Row or Double-Row
Single-row deep groove ball bearings are typically used in applications where low friction, low running noise, and high speeds are the primary requirements. The bearing will operate in an extreme environment, such as high heat conditions. Double-row deep groove ball bearings are used where load capacity is the more significant concern, and the design space is relatively small compared to the load needs.
Lubrication
Self-lubricating deep groove ball bearings, particularly with a high-quality lubricant, will not only allow the bearings to operate most efficiently but will also significantly increase the system's longevity and reduce maintenance requirements, which will ultimately reduce system downtime.
Materials and Sealing Options
Although high-quality, ultra-clean steel with a pressed steel cage is the standard for deep groove ball bearings, there are other options that can be used when operating conditions demand it. Bearings can be coated with an aluminum-based ceramic material, plasma sprayed to ensure appropriate bonding, and then finished with an acrylic resin for moisture resistance.
Size
Different sizes are available to fit different systems. Online sizing guides can help determine the correct deep groove ball-bearing size.
