2204-2RS C/3 Bearing Product Overview & Core Advantages
The 2204-2RS C/3 is a double row angular contact ball bearing designed for exceptional performance in demanding applications. This precision bearing excels at simultaneously handling combined loads, including significant radial loads and bidirectional axial loads. Its compact design, featuring two rows of balls and a contact angle, provides high rigidity and stable rotational accuracy, making it ideal for applications requiring high reliability and precision. The sealed construction with pre-applied lubrication ensures long-term, maintenance-free operation.
2204-2RS C/3 Bearing Model Code Explained, Specifications & Naming Convention
| Code Segment | Technical Meaning |
|---|---|
| 2204 | Basic bearing designation, indicating a metric series double row angular contact ball bearing with a 20 mm bore diameter. |
| 2RS | Contact seals on both sides. The "RS" suffix denotes Nitrile Rubber (NBR) seals, providing effective protection against contaminants and retaining lubricant. |
| C/3 | Specifies the radial internal clearance. The "C3" clearance is greater than the standard CN clearance, making the bearing suitable for applications with thermal expansion or where interference fits are used. |
2204-2RS C/3 Bearing Structural Features & Performance Benefits
- High Rigidity and Load Capacity: The double row design significantly increases the number of load-carrying balls, resulting in superior high rigidity and the ability to support substantial combined loads (radial and axial loads from both directions) compared to single row bearings.
- Optimized for Sealed Operation: The integrated 2RS contact seals effectively shield the internal components from dust, moisture, and other contaminants while retaining the factory-applied lubricant. This design enhances bearing life and enables maintenance-free operation in challenging environments.
- Lightweight and Stable Cage: The Nylon cage is lightweight, which reduces centrifugal forces and contributes to smooth operation at high speeds. It also offers good wear resistance and quiet running.
- Precision Ground Components: Manufactured from high-grade Chrome Steel, the rings and balls are precision ground to ensure consistent bearing dimensions and low noise and vibration levels.
