697 17 mm 7 mm 5 mm Frequently Asked Questions about 697 Metric Miniature Deep Groove Ball Bearings
Find key technical answers regarding dimensions, specifications, and replacement options for this model.
To safeguard CHG Bearing 697 against fretting wear and false brinelling during transport or vibration, assemble mating surfaces (7 mm x 17 mm) using anti-fretting mounting paste. Maintaining strict alignment and avoiding prolonged static vibration will preserve raceway polish.
In its sealed configuration (Open Type), CHG Bearing pre-charges 697 with premium wide-temperature lithium-complex or polyurea grease, calibrated to a 30%–35% cavity volume ratio. For open-type variants, synthetic PAO or refined mineral lubricating oils with appropriate EP (Extreme Pressure) additives should be circulated.
Beyond standard alloy steel, CHG Bearing can customize the 697 Metric Miniature Deep Groove Ball Bearings using AISI 440C stainless steel, black oxide coating, zinc-nickel plating, or hybrid ceramic (Si3N4) balls for applications involving chemical exposure, marine salt fog, or galvanic current hazards.
Yes, 100% of 697 Metric Miniature Deep Groove Ball Bearings leaving CHG Bearing production lines are subjected to multi-frequency Anderometer sound testing. All units satisfy baseline Z1V1 levels, with dedicated quiet-running electric motor quality (EMQ) lots certified to Z2V2 and Z3V3 standards for silent machinery integration.
