Single-row deep groove ball bearings with ball entry grooves and shields on both sides accommodate more balls than conventional deep groove ball bearings. They have a simple but versatile design, are reliable in operation and easy to maintain. They can accommodate radial and axial loads in both directions. They have a higher radial load-carrying capacity than corresponding bearings without such grooves, but the grooves limit their ability to accommodate axial loads. Built-in seals can significantly increase bearing life by keeping the lubricant inside and preventing contaminants from the environment from entering the bearing.
