Tritan 1616 2RS Prx Deep Groove Ball Bearing 0.5 in

Product Description

The TRITAN 1616 2RS PRX is a deep groove ball bearing designed for rotating shaft applications in light-duty mechanical assemblies. It features a 0.5-inch round bore, a double-seal configuration, and a semi-ground extra-light construction. The steel housing provides reliable structural support under radial and axial loads. With a static load capacity of 538 pounds and a maximum rated speed of 5,000 RPM, this bearing suits moderate-speed, low-load service points. It is sized and configured for direct drop-in installation by maintenance technicians and mechanical contractors working on motors, pumps, fans, and similar rotating equipment.

This bearing is appropriate for use in residential and light commercial mechanical systems where a compact, sealed ball bearing is required at a 0.5-inch shaft diameter. Typical applications include electric motor shaft support, small pump housings, conveyor idlers, and fan assemblies. The double-seal design keeps lubricant in and contaminants out, reducing service intervals in environments where periodic relubrication is impractical. No snap ring is included with this bearing.

Key Features

• 0.5-inch round bore diameter for standard shaft fitment
• Double-seal design retains grease and excludes contaminants
• Static load capacity of 538 pounds for moderate radial loads
• Maximum speed rating of 5,000 RPM
• Semi-ground extra-light series construction reduces rotating mass
• Steel housing for durability in typical mechanical environments

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement for deep groove ball bearings requiring a 0.5-inch round bore in double-seal, extra-light series configurations.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified mechanical technician or millwright. Always de-energize and lock out the equipment before removing or installing bearings. Use a proper bearing press or driver tool to seat the bearing squarely into the housing - never strike the bearing directly with a hammer. Refer to the equipment manufacturer's specifications for housing bore tolerances and shaft fit requirements before installation.
