Value Collection 21861-88 Deep Groove Ball Bearing

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 21861-88 is a deep groove ball bearing designed for rotating shaft applications where reliable radial load support is required. It features a 0.375-inch round bore diameter, a 3/8-inch width, and a double-seal configuration that keeps contaminants out while retaining lubrication. The carbon steel housing provides durable performance in standard industrial and mechanical service environments. With a dynamic load capacity of 691 pounds and a maximum rated speed of 2,500 RPM, this bearing suits moderate-speed, moderate-load applications. Installation is typically performed by millwrights, maintenance technicians, or HVAC and equipment service professionals as part of a shaft assembly or motor replacement.

This bearing is suited for use in light industrial machinery, HVAC blower shaft assemblies, conveyor systems, and general mechanical equipment requiring a compact, single-row radial bearing. The double-seal design eliminates the need for external lubrication intervals in most service conditions, making it a practical choice for enclosed or hard-to-access mounting locations. Its standard round bore format is compatible with common shaft sizes in residential and light commercial equipment servicing.

Compatibility

Designed as a standard single-row deep groove ball bearing replacement for light industrial and mechanical equipment applications requiring a 0.375-inch round bore.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified technician. De-energize and lock out all power to the equipment before removing the existing bearing. Use a proper bearing press or driver tool to seat the bearing evenly on the shaft without applying force through the rolling elements. Avoid impact installation methods that can damage the seal or bearing races.
