Deep groove ball bearings are versatile, self-retaining bearings with solid outer rings, inner rings and ball and cage assemblies. These bearings with their simple design, high resistance and low-maintenance, are available in single-row and double-row designs, as well as sealed and unsealed.

Replacing deep groove ball bearings with plain bearings can offer a range of benefits, including lower cost, less maintenance, greatly reduce noise at low speeds and easier installation. Plain bearing can also have a higher load capacity, simplified assembly, increased longevity, reduced housing dimensions and assembly size and weight.

Deep groove ball bearings are the most common type of ball bearing. They are commonly used in electric motors and in household appliances, car motors, office machinery, automation control, and garden and household tools. They have deep raceway grooves and their race dimensions are close to the dimensions of the balls that run inside.
