16004/C3W64 Bearing Product Overview & Core Advantages
The 16004/C3W64 is a single row deep groove ball bearing engineered for high-performance radial load applications. This precision bearing features a C3 radial internal clearance and is pre-lubricated with Soild Oil for long-term, maintenance-free operation. Its compact design, characterized by a 20 mm bore and 8 mm width, makes it an ideal solution for applications demanding high rotational accuracy and reliability within a broad operating temperature range.
16004/C3W64 Bearing Model Code Explained, Specifications & Naming Convention
| Code Segment | Technical Meaning | Benefit |
|---|---|---|
| 16004 | Standard designation for a single row deep groove ball bearing with 20mm bore, 42mm OD, and 8mm width. | Defines core dimensions and bearing type. |
| C3 | Specifies a greater than normal radial internal clearance. | Accommodates thermal expansion in applications with high operating temperatures or heavy loads, preventing premature failure. |
| W64 | Indicates the bearing is lubricated with Soild Oil, a solid polymer-based lubricant. | Provides lifelong lubrication, eliminates leakage, and is suitable for high-speed operation up to 13,000 rpm. |
16004/C3W64 Bearing Structural Features & Performance Benefits
- High-Radial Load Capacity: The optimized single row deep groove raceway geometry and chrome steel construction enable a high dynamic load rating of 1416 lbf, ensuring reliable performance under significant radial stresses.
- Optimized for Speed: The combination of an open design, Soild Oil lubrication, and ABEC 1 precision allows for a limiting speed of 13,000 rpm, making it a capable high-speed bearing.
- Maintenance-Free Operation: The integrated Soild Oil eliminates the need for re-lubrication, reducing maintenance costs and preventing contamination in clean or difficult-to-access environments.
- Robust Construction: Manufactured entirely from chrome steel for rings, balls, and cage, this bearing offers excellent durability, wear resistance, and a long operational lifespan.
