6006 Bearing Product Overview & Core Advantages
The 6006 is a metric single row deep groove ball bearing engineered for reliable performance in a wide range of industrial applications. Its fundamental design excels at carrying radial loads, making it a versatile and cost-effective solution. Manufactured to ABEC-1 precision tolerances, this bearing offers consistent operation and is characterized by its compact cross-section with a 13 mm width. Constructed entirely from high-grade chrome steel for the rings and balls, it delivers excellent durability and a long service life under standard operating conditions.
6006 Bearing Model Code Explained, Specifications & Naming Convention
| Code Segment | Technical Meaning |
|---|---|
| 6006 | Standard designation for a single row deep groove ball bearing with a 30mm bore, 55mm OD, and 13mm width. |
| Open (Seal Type) | The bearing is supplied without seals or shields, allowing for higher limiting speeds and easy re-lubrication. It requires a clean operating environment or external sealing. |
| CN (Clearance) | Specifies the standard radial internal clearance for normal operating conditions. |
6006 Bearing Structural Features & Performance Benefits
- Optimized for Radial Loads: The deep groove raceway and single row of balls are perfectly designed to handle significant radial dynamic load ratings of up to 2967 lbf.
- High-Speed Capability: The open design, combined with a lightweight stainless steel cage, minimizes friction and allows for a high limiting speed of 13,000 rpm.
- Precision & Reliability: Manufactured to ABEC-1 tolerance class, ensuring smooth and quiet running, which is critical for reducing vibration in precision machinery.
- Robust Construction: The use of chrome steel for all critical components provides high hardness and resistance to wear, contributing to the bearing's radial static load rating of 1855 lbf.
6006 Bearing Typical Application Areas
This versatile ball bearing is widely used across various industries due to its balanced performance characteristics. Common applications include:
- Electric Motors and Generators
- Industrial Gearboxes and Transmissions
- Material Handling Equipment (e.g., conveyor pulleys)
- Agricultural Machinery
- Pumps and Fans
- General Machinery where reliable radial load support is required.
