Value Collection SFR156 Miniature Ball Bearing Flanged

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION SFR156 is a miniature flanged ball bearing designed for compact rotating assemblies that demand precise, low-friction support in tight spaces. Built from stainless steel, this open-style single-row bearing carries an ABEC-5 precision rating, a static load capacity of 29 pounds, and a dynamic load capacity of 81 pounds. At 0.1875 inches bore diameter, 0.3125 inches outside diameter, and 0.1094 inches overall width, it fits where standard bearings cannot. The integral flange, measuring 0.3590 inches outside diameter, provides positive axial location and simplifies housing design. HVAC technicians, plumbers, electricians, and equipment service pros encounter this bearing class in small motors, pumps, and precision instruments.

This bearing is suited for residential and light commercial equipment where miniature rotating components require reliable radial support. Typical applications include small fractional-horsepower motors, centrifugal pump shafts, fan assemblies, and instrumentation drives. The stainless steel housing makes it appropriate for environments with moisture exposure or mild corrosive conditions, including HVAC drain-pan areas, pool equipment enclosures, or plumbing pump assemblies. The open design allows for field lubrication when operating conditions require it.

• ABEC-5 precision rating for consistent, low-runout performance in tight-tolerance assemblies
• Integral flange with 0.3590 inches flange OD for positive axial positioning
• Open design allows field re-lubrication as needed
• Single-row construction handles radial loads in compact shaft arrangements
• 29 pounds static load capacity and 81 pounds dynamic load capacity

Compatibility

Designed as a standard SFR156 miniature flanged ball bearing, compatible with any application calling for a 0.1875 inches bore, 0.3125 inches OD, 0.1094 inches width, flanged, open, single-row bearing with an ABEC-5 rating.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified technician familiar with rotating equipment service. Always de-energize and lock out the equipment before replacing any bearing. Press or seat the bearing evenly using appropriate bearing installation tools to avoid cocking or damaging the race. Never strike the bearing directly with a hammer, and do not apply force through the rolling elements.
