Value Collection SR168ZZ Miniature Ball Bearing ABEC-5

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION SR168ZZ is a miniature ball bearing designed for compact rotating assemblies that require precise, low-friction support in a small envelope. It features a 0.25-inch bore diameter, a 0.375-inch outside diameter, and an overall width of 0.125 inches. The double-shield construction protects the internal ball and raceway from contamination without requiring external sealing arrangements. Built from stainless steel housing material and rated ABEC-5, this bearing is suited for applications where dimensional accuracy and smooth operation are critical. It carries a static load capacity of 33 pounds and a dynamic load capacity of 84 pounds.

This miniature bearing is appropriate for use in light industrial equipment, small motors, instrumentation, and precision mechanical assemblies where space constraints limit the use of standard-size bearings. The single-row, round-bore, unflanged configuration fits standard bearing pockets in both residential and commercial equipment. Technicians and assemblers working with small-scale rotating components will find the ABEC-5 tolerance class suitable for applications demanding consistent runout control and reduced vibration.

Key Features

• Double-shield design reduces contamination ingress without external sealing hardware
• ABEC-5 tolerance class for consistent dimensional accuracy and reduced runout
• Stainless steel housing material for corrosion resistance in light-duty environments
• 84-pound dynamic load capacity and 33-pound static load capacity
• Single-row, round bore, unflanged — fits standard miniature bearing pockets
• Compact envelope: 0.25-inch bore, 0.375-inch OD, 0.125-inch width

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement miniature ball bearing for compact rotating assemblies requiring a 0.25-inch bore, 0.375-inch OD, and 0.125-inch width with a double-shield configuration.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified technician familiar with precision bearing service. Power down and de-energize all equipment before removing or installing bearings. Press or seat the bearing evenly using appropriate bearing installation tools — never strike the bearing directly, as impact can damage the raceway or shields. Verify that the housing bore and shaft dimensions fall within acceptable tolerances before installation.
