6002-2Z/C3VK172 Bearing Product Overview & Core Advantages
The 6002-2Z/C3 is a metric single row deep groove ball bearing engineered for reliable performance in demanding applications. Its shielded design (2Z) provides effective protection against contamination while maintaining low operating torque. Manufactured to ABEC 1 | ISO P0 tolerance standards with C3 radial internal clearance, this bearing offers excellent value for general industrial use where moderate precision and high reliability are required. The optimized geometry ensures smooth operation and long service life across various operating conditions.
6002-2Z/C3VK172 Bearing Model Code Explained, Specifications & Naming Convention
| Code Segment | Technical Meaning | Performance Benefit |
|---|---|---|
| 6002 | Basic bearing designation (15mm bore, 32mm OD, 9mm width) | Standard dimension compatibility |
| 2Z | Double-sided steel shields | Contamination protection, extended service life |
| C3 | Greater than normal radial internal clearance | Accommodates thermal expansion, ideal for high-temperature applications |
6002-2Z/C3VK172 Bearing Structural Features & Performance Benefits
Deep Groove Raceway Design: The optimized raceway geometry enables the bearing to handle combined radial and axial loads efficiently, making it suitable for applications with complex loading conditions.
Double-Shielded Protection: Both sides feature non-contact steel shields that retain factory lubrication while effectively excluding contaminants, significantly extending bearing service life in challenging environments.
C3 Internal Clearance: The greater-than-normal radial internal clearance accommodates differential thermal expansion between shaft and housing, preventing premature failure in applications with elevated operating temperatures or where interference fits are used.
Chrome Steel Construction: All components including rings, balls, and cage are manufactured from high-quality chrome steel, providing consistent performance and durability across the operating temperature range of -30°C to 120°C.
