1204 C/3 Bearing Product Overview & Core Advantages
The 1204 C/3 is a metric double row angular contact ball bearing designed for applications requiring high precision and reliability. Its double row construction provides superior rigidity and the ability to support significant combined loads (radial and axial loads simultaneously). Manufactured with chrome steel rings and balls, and featuring a nylon cage, this bearing is engineered for smooth operation and long service life. The CN radial internal clearance and lubricated design make it a versatile and robust choice for demanding industrial environments.
1204 C/3 Bearing Model Code Explained, Specifications & Naming Convention
| Code Segment | Technical Meaning |
|---|---|
| 1204 | Standard bearing designation indicating a bore diameter of 20 mm and a specific size series. |
| C | Denotes a specific internal design, typically related to the contact angle, optimized for carrying axial loads. |
| /3 | Indicates the CN radial internal clearance group, which is the standard/normal clearance for general applications. |
1204 C/3 Bearing Structural Features & Performance Benefits
- High Rigidity & Load Capacity: The double row ball bearing design provides a rigid support structure, enabling it to handle high radial dynamic load ratings of 2858 lbf and significant axial loads from both directions.
- Optimized for Smooth Operation: The lightweight nylon cage ensures stable ball guidance, reduces friction, and contributes to quieter running and lower operating temperatures, even at the specified limiting speed.
- Precision Engineering: Manufactured with tight dimensional tolerances on the bore diameter, outside diameter, and width, ensuring precise fit and reliable performance in high-accuracy assemblies.
- Broad Operational Range: The chrome steel construction and standard lubrication allow for a wide temperature range from -30°C to 110°C, making it suitable for various industrial climates.
