311A-ZN Bearing Product Overview & Core Advantages
The 311A-ZN is a single row deep groove ball bearing designed for reliable performance in demanding applications. Engineered with Chrome Steel construction throughout its rings, balls, and cage, it delivers excellent durability and consistent operation. A key feature is its shielded design (one side), which offers effective protection against contaminant ingress while maintaining high-speed capability. Its snap ring groove on the outer ring facilitates secure and simplified axial location within a housing, making it an ideal choice for applications requiring high radial load capacity and straightforward installation.

311A-ZN Bearing Structural Features & Performance Benefits
- Robust Load Capacity: The single row deep groove geometry is fundamentally designed to support high radial loads (17,805 lbf dynamic / 15,062 lbf static), making it suitable for a wide range of industrial machinery.
- Simplified Axial Location: The integrated snap ring groove eliminates the need for complex housing shoulders or locknuts, reducing assembly time and cost while ensuring precise axial positioning.
- Contamination Resistance: The shielded design provides a primary defense against dust and debris, helping to maintain bearing integrity and extend service life in moderately dirty environments.
- Standard Precision & Clearance: Manufactured to ABEC 1 | ISO P0 tolerance class with CN radial internal clearance, ensuring reliable, cost-effective performance for general industrial applications.
