6004-2RSH/C3W64E Bearing Product Overview & Core Advantages
The 6004-2RSH/C3W64E is a single row deep groove ball bearing designed for high reliability and long service life in demanding applications. Its core advantage lies in its sealed construction and Solid Oil lubrication, which provides excellent contamination protection and consistent performance across a wide temperature range. This bearing is engineered to handle primarily radial loads and is characterized by its high limiting speed and C3 radial internal clearance, making it a robust and versatile choice for a variety of industrial machinery.
6004-2RSH/C3W64E Bearing Model Code Explained, Specifications & Naming Convention
| Code Segment | Technical Meaning |
|---|---|
| 6004 | Standard bearing series designation, indicating a metric deep groove ball bearing with a 20mm bore, 42mm OD, and 12mm width. |
| 2RSH | Contact seals on both sides. The RSH suffix indicates high-performance nitrile rubber (NBR) seals with a steel insert for effective protection against contaminants. |
| C3 | Radial internal clearance greater than normal (CN). This is suitable for applications with thermal expansion or where interference fits are used. |
| W64E | Identifies the bearing as being lubricated with Solid Oil, a polymer matrix saturated with oil, offering long-term lubrication and resistance to wash-out. |
6004-2RSH/C3W64E Bearing Structural Features & Performance Benefits
- Sealed and Lubricated for Life: The combination of 2RSH contact seals and Solid Oil (W64E) creates a virtually maintenance-free unit. This design effectively excludes contaminants and retains lubrication, ensuring consistent performance and extending bearing service life in dirty or humid environments.
- Optimized for Thermal Conditions: The C3 radial internal clearance accommodates dimensional changes caused by thermal expansion in the shaft and housing, preventing preload and potential seizure, which is critical for operational reliability.
- Robust Load Capacity: Manufactured from high-grade chrome steel for both rings and balls, this bearing offers a substantial radial dynamic load rating of 2113 lbf, providing durability under continuous operation.
- High-Speed Capability: With a limiting speed of 17,000 rpm, the bearing is suitable for applications requiring high rotational velocities, supported by the low-friction characteristics of the deep groove raceway and effective sealing.
