Deep Groove Ball Bearings(618 / 619 SERIES)
Compact precision, low friction and high-speed capabilityCHG 618/619 precision deep groove ball bearings are single-row, thin-section metric bearings developed for compact, low-friction and high-speed rotating systems. Their deep raceways support predominantly radial loads and can also accommodate axial loads in both directions within the allowable clearance and operating conditions.

Key Features
Clearance and Load
Minimal radial clearance generally supports accurate, low-noise rotation. Increased clearance can raise the effective contact angle under axial load and improve axial capacity, but it may reduce rotational accuracy and rigidity. Select clearance after considering interference fits, temperature differences and shaft/housing accuracy.
Speed and Lubrication
The catalog limiting speeds assume correctly mounted single bearings, light preload, suitable lubrication and stable operating temperature. Oil lubrication generally supports higher speed; grease lubrication simplifies maintenance. Actual allowable speed should be derated for preload, pairing, sealing, temperature and load.
Mounting Essentials
Control shaft and housing roundness; thin rings are sensitive to deformation.
Apply mounting force only through the ring being fitted.
Avoid excessive misalignment and shock loads.
Use matched shaft/housing tolerances to preserve P4 accuracy.
Key Features
Precision instruments, low-noise motors, machine-tool auxiliary spindles, automation equipment, compact gear units, medical devices, robotics, automotive and general precision machinery.
