6000/C4VA2101 Bearing Product Overview & Core Advantages
The 6000/C4VA2101 is a single row deep groove ball bearing designed for exceptional performance in radial load applications. This precision bearing features an open design and is manufactured to ABEC 1 | ISO P0 tolerance class, ensuring reliable operation and interchangeability. Its key advantages include a high limiting speed of 31,000 rpm and an optimized radial internal clearance of C4, making it suitable for applications requiring accommodation for thermal expansion or where interference fits are used. Constructed entirely from chrome steel, it offers excellent durability and is compliant with RoHS and REACH standards.
6000/C4VA2101 Bearing Model Code Explained, Specifications & Naming Convention
| Code Segment | Technical Meaning |
|---|---|
| 6000 | Standard series designation for a metric, single row deep groove ball bearing with a 10mm bore, 26mm OD, and 8mm width. |
| /C4 | Indicates a greater than normal radial internal clearance. This is beneficial in applications with significant temperature gradients or where tight fits are used. |
| VA2101 | Signifies a specific product variant. In this context, it confirms the open seal type and the absence of pre-applied lubrication (None). |
6000/C4VA2101 Bearing Structural Features & Performance Benefits
- High-Speed Capability: The single-row design with a pressed steel cage (standard for this series) and open construction minimizes friction and allows for a high limiting speed of 31,000 rpm, ideal for demanding applications.
- Optimized Internal Clearance: The C4 radial internal clearance provides extra space between the rolling elements and raceways. This feature accommodates thermal expansion in the shaft and housing, preventing preload and potential bearing seizure, thereby enhancing operational reliability.
- Robust Construction: All core components—rings, balls, and cage—are made from chrome steel. This material offers high hardness, wear resistance, and a long service life under radial dynamic loads up to 1023 lbf.
- Precision Engineering: Manufactured to ABEC 1 (ISO P0) tolerance class, this bearing ensures smooth and quiet running, contributing to the overall precision of the assembly.
