1600 Series ®
Precision ground 1600 Series® bearings are specially designed to provide a line of low cost yet high quality bearings
for adaptation to a majority of precision bearing applications. They are made in easy to use inch dimensions and are
recommended for medium loads and for maximum speeds in the range of 5000 rpm.
The 1600 Series® bearings are precision ground on all surfaces with exceptional care given to the ball grooves. Careful
heat treatment provides a uniform and exact degree of hardness for maximum life. A ball retainer, or separator, is used
to increase the range of allowable speeds by reducing ball-to-ball contact friction. The 1600 Series® radial bearings are
available open, single or doubled shielded, or single or double sealed. Double sealed and double shielded bearings are
supplied grease packed as standard. Open and single closure bearings can be supplied greased on request.

400 Series
®
The 400 Series® of unground radial ball bearings are designed for
moderate loads and speeds where running accuracy and noise level
requirements do not warrant the more expensive precision ground
bearings. This series of bearings feature a full ball complement
without a retainer and a soft steel band on the outer ring. This
permits the bearing to be pressed into a housing without the B A
necessity of close housing tolerances. The bearings are designed
for use in applications with speeds not exceeding 1200 rpm.

Radial Internal Clearance
All Nice® single row deep groove ball bearings are designed and produced with radial internal clearance to provide for optimum performance.
Nice® ball bearings are supplied with “normal” radial clearance as standard, but can be ordered with radial clearance tighter than normal or
looser than normal as a special item. The values listed in the table below apply to bearings before mounting and under no load and are supplied
as a design guide. Consult RBC® engineering when ordering other than normal radial clearance.

Recommended Shaft and Housing Fits
Proper mounting fits of ball bearings to shafts and in housings are critical to their performance. Excessively tight or excessively loose fits can
result in premature bearing failures. Recommended fit values have been established which will facilitate optimum bearing performance.
The shaft and housing fits listed below apply to the 1600® series and 7500® series bearings. They may also be used for the housing fits only
on the 3000® series, 7600® series, and 6900® bearings.
