1215-K C/3 Bearing Product Overview & Core Advantages
The 1215-K C/3 is a double row angular contact ball bearing designed for exceptional performance in demanding applications. This precision bearing features a tapered bore (1:12) and is pre-lubricated for immediate use. Its double-row design provides superior high rigidity and the ability to accommodate combined loads—significant radial forces and moderate axial loads in both directions. With a CN radial internal clearance and a stainless steel cage, it is engineered for reliable operation and long service life in high-precision machinery.
1215-K C/3 Bearing Model Code Explained, Specifications & Naming Convention
| Suffix | Technical Meaning |
|---|---|
| K | Indicates a tapered bore with a 1:12 ratio, designed for precise mounting on adapter sleeves. |
| C/3 | Specifies the radial internal clearance group. C3 clearance is greater than normal (CN), making it suitable for applications with thermal expansion or where interference fits are used. |
1215-K C/3 Bearing Structural Features & Performance Benefits
- High Rigidity & Load Capacity: The double row angular contact ball bearing construction provides significantly higher radial stiffness than single-row designs, enabling stable support under heavy combined loads.
- Optimized for Interference Fits: The tapered bore (1:12) allows for precise and secure mounting on an adapter sleeve, ensuring a tight fit that minimizes inner ring creep under load.
- Enhanced Operational Reliability: The stainless steel cage offers high strength and corrosion resistance, contributing to smooth operation at the limiting speed of 6,700 rpm. The standard C3 radial clearance accommodates thermal expansion in demanding operating conditions.
- Ready-to-Install Convenience: The bearing comes pre-lubricated, simplifying installation and providing immediate protection upon startup.
