2203 C/3 Bearing Product Overview & Core Advantages
The 2203 C/3 is a double row angular contact ball bearing designed for applications requiring high precision and reliability. This sealed bearing excels at simultaneously handling significant radial loads and bidirectional axial loads, offering a compact and robust solution. Manufactured with chrome steel rings and balls, and featuring a nylon cage, it delivers excellent performance in demanding environments. Its pre-lubricated and sealed design ensures long service life with minimal maintenance.
2203 C/3 Bearing Model Code Explained, Specifications & Naming Convention
| Suffix | Technical Meaning |
|---|---|
| C/3 | Indicates a specific internal clearance group. The C3 clearance is greater than the standard CN group, making it suitable for applications with higher operational temperatures or where interference fits are used, ensuring optimal performance and preventing preload. |
| Sealed | The bearing is equipped with integrated seals (as per specification), providing effective protection against contaminants and retention of lubricant, contributing to its maintenance-free characteristics. |
| Lubricated | The bearing is pre-filled with grease, ready for immediate use without initial lubrication, simplifying installation and ensuring consistent performance from startup. |
2203 C/3 Bearing Structural Features & Performance Benefits
- High Rigidity & Load Capacity: The double row ball construction provides superior rigidity and enables the bearing to support substantial combined loads (radial and axial) from both directions, making it ideal for applications with complex loading conditions.
- Optimized for Performance: The lightweight nylon cage is designed for smooth operation and is well-suited for high-speed applications, contributing to the bearing's limiting speed of 12,000 rpm.
- Durability and Longevity: The use of high-grade chrome steel for rings and balls ensures high durability and resistance to wear. The sealed and pre-lubricated design protects the internal components, leading to an extended service life and reliable operation.
- Precise Dimensions: Manufactured to tight tolerances on the bore diameter (17 mm), outside diameter (40 mm), and width (16 mm), ensuring precise fit and reliable performance in precision assemblies.
