1204-TVH-C3 Bearing Product Overview & Core Advantages
The 1204-TVH-C3 is a double row angular contact ball bearing designed for applications requiring high rigidity and precise operation. This metric bearing features an open design and is pre-lubricated for immediate use. Its primary advantage lies in its ability to support significant combined loads—simultaneously handling radial forces and axial loads in both directions. The C3 radial internal clearance makes it particularly suitable for applications with thermal expansion or where interference fits are used, ensuring reliable performance under varying operational conditions. With its compact dimensions and robust construction, it is an ideal choice for high-precision machinery demanding reliability and longevity.
1204-TVH-C3 Bearing Model Code Explained, Specifications & Naming Convention
| Code Segment | Technical Meaning |
|---|---|
| 1204 | Basic bearing designation: 20 mm bore diameter, 47 mm outside diameter, 14 mm width |
| TVH | Nylon cage (Polyamide) design for reduced friction and quiet operation |
| C3 | Radial internal clearance greater than normal, suitable for applications with thermal expansion or interference fits |
1204-TVH-C3 Bearing Structural Features & Performance Benefits
High Rigidity & Load Capacity: The double row construction provides superior rigidity and enables the bearing to handle substantial combined radial and axial loads from both directions, making it more compact than using two single row bearings.
Optimized Cage Design: The nylon cage (TVH) contributes to lower friction, reduced heat generation, and quieter operation, which is beneficial for high-speed applications.
Precision & Reliability: Manufactured from chrome steel for both rings and balls, the bearing ensures high durability and consistent performance. The specified dimensional tolerances guarantee precise fit and alignment.
Operational Readiness: The bearing comes pre-lubricated, facilitating easy installation and immediate operation. The C3 clearance provides operational stability across a wide temperature range (-30° to 110 °C).
