6004-2RS2/C3GWP Bearing Product Overview & Core Advantages
The 6004-2RS2/C3GWP is a single row deep groove ball bearing engineered for high-performance applications requiring reliable operation under radial loads. This metric bearing features integrated contact seals (2RS2) and is pre-lubricated with high-performance grease (GWP), making it a maintenance-free solution ideal for applications demanding contamination protection and long service life. Its C3 radial internal clearance ensures optimal performance in applications with thermal expansion or where interference fits are used. Manufactured to ABEC 1 | ISO P0 tolerance standards, it offers a robust balance of precision and value.
6004-2RS2/C3GWP Bearing Model Code Explained, Specifications & Naming Convention
| Code Segment | Technical Meaning |
|---|---|
| 6004 | Basic bearing series, indicating a standard deep groove ball bearing with a 20mm bore, 42mm OD, and 12mm width. |
| 2RS2 | Bearing is equipped with low-friction synthetic rubber contact seals on both sides. The "2" denotes a specific, optimized seal design for effective protection against contaminants and moisture retention. |
| C3 | Specifies a greater than normal radial internal clearance. This is critical for applications involving thermal expansion, shaft misalignment, or heavy interference fits. |
| GWP | Indicates the bearing is pre-lubricated with a lithium soap complex grease containing extreme pressure (EP) additives. This grease offers excellent mechanical stability and a wide operating temperature range. |
6004-2RS2/C3GWP Bearing Structural Features & Performance Benefits
- Robust Construction & High Load Capacity: Manufactured from high-grade chrome steel for rings, balls, and cage, this bearing delivers high strength and durability. With a radial dynamic load rating of 2113 lbf and a static load rating of 1135 lbf, it is designed to handle significant radial loads in demanding environments.
- Superior Sealing & Contamination Resistance: The low-friction 2RS2 contact seals effectively shield the internal components from dust, dirt, and moisture while retaining the lubricant. This significantly extends bearing life and enables reliable operation in harsh conditions.
- Optimized for Thermal & Fit Conditions: The C3 radial internal clearance provides a performance buffer, preventing excessive preload and potential seizure in applications where operational heat or tight shaft/housing fits are present.
- Maintenance-Free Operation: The combination of high-efficiency seals and a high-quality, factory-applied GWP grease makes the bearing lubricated for life in many applications, reducing total cost of ownership by eliminating re-lubrication needs.
