6004/C4H Bearing Product Overview & Core Advantages
The 6004/C4H is a single row deep groove ball bearing engineered for high-performance applications requiring precision and reliability. This open-type bearing is designed primarily to accommodate radial loads while also handling moderate axial loads in both directions. Manufactured to ABEC 1 | ISO P0 tolerance standards, it offers excellent dimensional stability and operational consistency. A key feature is its C4 radial internal clearance, which makes it particularly suitable for applications with thermal expansion considerations or where interference fits are used. Its robust construction from chrome steel ensures durability and long service life across a wide operating temperature range.
6004/C4H Bearing Model Code Explained, Specifications & Naming Convention
| Suffix | Technical Meaning | Performance Implication |
|---|---|---|
| C4 | Radial internal clearance greater than normal | Accommodates thermal expansion, ideal for applications with interference fits or elevated temperatures |
| H | Hardened bearing rings | Enhanced durability and resistance to deformation under heavy loads |
6004/C4H Bearing Structural Features & Performance Benefits
Optimized Load Capacity: The deep groove raceway geometry enables efficient distribution of radial loads with a dynamic load rating of 2113 lbf and static load rating of 1135 lbf, making it suitable for moderate to heavy-duty applications.
Precision Engineering: Manufactured to ABEC 1 | ISO P0 tolerance class with tight dimensional control (bore diameter tolerance: -0.01mm to 0), ensuring consistent performance and easy installation.
High-Speed Capability: With a limiting speed of 17,000 rpm, this bearing is designed for high-speed applications, supported by its optimized cage design and precise manufacturing.
Thermal Management: The C4 radial clearance provides adequate space for thermal expansion, preventing binding and maintaining smooth operation across the temperature range of -30°C to 120°C.
Material Excellence: All critical components including rings, balls, and cage are manufactured from chrome steel, offering excellent hardness, wear resistance, and corrosion protection.
