6001-2RS1/C3GJN Bearing Product Overview & Core Advantages
The 6001-2RS1/C3GJN is a metric single row deep groove ball bearing designed for reliable performance in a wide range of industrial applications. Its core advantage lies in its sealed construction (2RS1), which provides effective protection against contaminants, and its optimized C3 radial internal clearance, making it suitable for applications with thermal expansion or where interference fits are used. This bearing is engineered to handle primarily radial loads and offers a balanced combination of durability, operational stability, and long service life under standard operating conditions.
Model Code Breakdown
- 6001: Basic model number denoting a metric single row deep groove ball bearing with a 12mm bore, 28mm OD, and 8mm width.
- 2RS1: Signifies that the bearing is fitted with two rubber contact seals (RS1), one on each side, providing superior protection against moisture and dirt ingress.
- C3: Indicates a greater radial internal clearance than the Normal (CN) group. This is beneficial for applications involving thermal expansion, heavy interference fits, or where lower operating temperatures are expected.
- GJN: This suffix denotes the specific type of polyurea grease used for lubrication. This grease offers good performance across the bearing's specified temperature range.
6001-2RS1/C3GJN Bearing Structural Features & Performance Benefits
Robust Sealed Design: The incorporation of two low-friction rubber contact seals (2RS1) effectively shields the internal components from contaminants, enhancing reliability and extending the bearing's operational life in demanding environments. This design contributes to its maintenance-free characteristic.
Optimized Internal Clearance: The C3 radial internal clearance provides operational stability in applications prone to thermal expansion or where shaft and housing fits result in a reduction of the original clearance. This helps prevent premature failure due to excessive preload.
High-Quality Material Construction: Manufactured from chrome steel for both rings and balls, this bearing ensures high strength, wear resistance, and consistent performance. The cage, also made from chrome steel, provides secure ball guidance.
Balanced Performance: With a radial dynamic load rating of 1147 lbf and a limiting speed of 27,000 rpm, this bearing offers a reliable solution for applications requiring a balance of load capacity and rotational capability.
6001-2RS1/C3GJN Bearing Typical Application Areas
The 6001-2RS1/C3GJN is versatile and finds use in various sectors, including:
- Electric Motors and Small Gearboxes
- Industrial Fans and Blowers
- Conveyor System Idlers and Pulleys
