2205 C/3 Bearing Product Overview & Core Advantages
The 2205 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 forces and bidirectional axial loads. Its compact design, featuring a 25 mm bore, 52 mm outside diameter, and 18 mm width, offers a high load capacity within a minimal envelope. Manufactured with chrome steel rings and balls, and a nylon cage, it delivers high rigidity, smooth operation, and reliable service in high-precision machinery.
2205 C/3 Bearing Model Code Explained, Specifications & Naming Convention
| Suffix | Technical Meaning |
|---|---|
| C/3 | Indicates the radial 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 comes with integrated seals (type not specified in suffix but confirmed in specs), which protect against contamination and retain the factory-applied lubricant, contributing to its maintenance-free characteristics. |
| Lubricated | The bearing is pre-lubricated with a grease suitable for its specified temperature range of -30°C to 110°C, ensuring immediate operation and long service life. |
2205 C/3 Bearing Structural Features & Performance Benefits
- High Rigidity & Load Capacity: The double row ball construction provides superior stiffness and enables the bearing to support substantial radial dynamic load ratings of 3218 lbf and combined loads effectively, making it ideal for applications requiring stable and precise shaft support.
- Optimized Speed Performance: The lightweight nylon cage minimizes centrifugal forces and friction, allowing for a high limiting speed of 9,000 rpm, which is essential for high-speed applications.
- Sealed & Ready-to-Use: The integrated seals effectively shield the rolling elements from dust and moisture, while the pre-applied lubrication makes the bearing a maintenance-free solution, reducing downtime and total cost of ownership.
- Precision Dimensions: Manufactured with tight tolerances on the bore diameter, outside diameter, and width, this bearing ensures precise fitment and reliable performance in high-accuracy assemblies.
