6002-2Z/C3GWP Bearing Product Overview & Core Advantages
The 6002-2Z/C3GWP is a single row deep groove ball bearing designed for robust performance in demanding applications. This shielded bearing offers excellent reliability and is pre-lubricated with high-quality grease for long service life. Its key advantages include the ability to handle significant radial loads, a generous C3 radial internal clearance suitable for applications with thermal expansion, and ABEC 1 precision for consistent operation. The combination of chrome steel components and effective shielding makes it a durable and cost-effective solution for a wide range of industrial machinery.
6002-2Z/C3GWP Bearing Model Code Explained, Specifications & Naming Convention
| Model Segment | Technical Meaning | Benefit |
|---|---|---|
| 6002 | Basic designation indicating a single row deep groove ball bearing with a 15mm bore, 32mm OD, and 9mm width. | Defines the standard dimensions and bearing type. |
| 2Z | Denotes shielded on both sides. | Provides effective protection against contaminant ingress, extending bearing life. |
| C3 | Indicates a greater than normal radial internal clearance. | Accommodates thermal expansion in applications with high operating temperatures or interference fits, preventing premature failure. |
| GWP | Signifies the bearing is pre-lubricated with grease. | Ensures immediate operation and reduces maintenance requirements. |
6002-2Z/C3GWP Bearing Structural Features & Performance Benefits
- Deep Groove Raceway & Single Row Design: The optimized raceway geometry enables the bearing to accommodate not only high radial loads but also moderate axial loads in both directions, offering versatile load-handling capability.
- Shields (2Z): Steel shields fitted on both sides effectively retain the grease and protect the internal components from dust and other contaminants. This contributes to a maintenance-free design and enhances operational reliability.
- C3 Radial Internal Clearance: This specific clearance is larger than standard, making the bearing highly suitable for applications where shaft or housing fits are tight, or where operational heat causes expansion. It helps prevent binding and reduces friction and noise.
- Chrome Steel Construction: Manufactured from high-carbon chrome steel for both rings, balls, and cage, this bearing provides high hardness, wear resistance, and a long fatigue life.
- Pre-lubrication (GWP): The bearing is factory-filled with a high-quality grease, providing immediate lubrication for the entire service life in many applications and simplifying installation.
