Value Collection 21561-88 Deep Groove Ball Bearing

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 21561-88 is a deep groove ball bearing designed for general-purpose rotational applications across industrial, HVAC, and mechanical service environments. With a 0.312-inch bore diameter and a round bore profile, this bearing supports radial and moderate axial loads in single-row configuration. The double-seal design keeps contaminants out and lubricant in, reducing maintenance intervals in demanding service conditions. A dynamic load capacity of 450 pounds makes it suitable for light-to-moderate duty machinery. Licensed technicians and maintenance professionals working on motors, fans, pumps, and small mechanical assemblies will find this a straightforward OEM-style replacement or new-build component.

This bearing is suited for use in residential and light commercial mechanical systems where a 0.312-inch round bore is required. Common applications include electric motor shafts, blower assemblies, conveyor components, and small pump housings. The single-row deep groove design handles combined loading and performs reliably at speeds up to 2,500 RPM. The carbon steel housing provides adequate strength for indoor and controlled-environment installations. No snap ring is included, so the receiving housing must be machined or configured for press or slip fit retention as appropriate for the application.

Key Features

• 0.312-inch round bore diameter for compatibility with standard fractional shafts
• Double-seal design protects against dust, debris, and lubricant loss
• Single-row deep groove construction handles radial and light axial loads
• 450-pound dynamic load capacity for light-to-moderate duty service
• Maximum rated speed of 2,500 RPM
• Carbon steel housing for durability in controlled mechanical environments

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or direct-fit bearing for mechanical assemblies requiring a 0.312-inch round bore, single-row deep groove ball bearing with a double-seal configuration.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified mechanic or maintenance technician. De-energize all equipment and lock out or tag out power before removing or installing bearings. Use a proper bearing press or sleeve driver to seat the bearing evenly against the shoulder — never strike the bearing directly with a hammer. Verify shaft and housing tolerances before installation to ensure correct fit class.
