BIS CERTIFICATION FOR DOUBLE ROW CYLINDRICAL ROLLER BEARINGS IS 6458

October 21, 2026 | 3 min Read

BIS Certification is mandatory for Double Row Cylindrical Roller Bearings as per IS 6458:1972. This standard sets the criteria for ensuring that bearings used in heavy-duty industrial applications perform effectively and deliver long, reliable service life. Double row cylindrical roller bearings are used in the automotive, railways and power generation industries amongst others where it must accommodate high radial loads and run at top notch as well. IS 6458:1972 Certified These bearings have been rigorously tested for material quality, precision and load carrying capacity. Conformity with this standard is indicative of a manufacturer’s adherence to quality assurance, reliable production and compliance with the relevant national and international standards.

IS 6458:1972 – Double Row Cylindrical Roller Bearings

This Indian Standard lays down the specifications for double row cylindrical roller bearings, covering essential design and manufacturing requirements to ensure uniformity and reliability. It specifies the dimensional and tolerance requirements, ensuring interchangeability of bearings manufactured by different producers. The standard also prescribes requirements for material selection, surface finish, heat treatment, and hardness to achieve superior wear resistance and durability. Under IS 6458:1972, testing plays a central role. The standard outlines inspection methods to verify accuracy of bore diameter, outside diameter, and width, along with permissible deviations. Provisions are also made for checking radial internal clearance, limiting values of noise and vibration, and ensuring that the bearings are free from manufacturing defects such as cracks, pits, or irregularities that may affect performance. This ensures that every certified bearing meets the mechanical and dimensional standards necessary for safe and efficient functioning in heavy-duty machinery.
