6006-2RS1/C3 Bearing Product Overview & Core Advantages
The 6006-2RS1/C3 is a single row deep groove ball bearing designed for exceptional performance in demanding applications. This sealed bearing features a robust construction that provides reliable radial load capacity and moderate axial loads in both directions. Its key advantages include a generous C3 radial internal clearance for thermal expansion in high-speed or high-temperature environments, and integrated contact seals for effective contamination exclusion and long service life without relubrication.
6006-2RS1/C3 Bearing Model Code Explained, Specifications & Naming Convention
| Code Segment | Technical Meaning |
|---|---|
| 6006 | Basic bearing designation indicating a metric, single row deep groove ball bearing with a 30mm bore and 55mm outside diameter. |
| 2RS1 | Bearing is equipped with two contact seals (RS1 type) on both sides, providing superior protection against contaminants and retaining lubricant. |
| C3 | Specifies a greater radial internal clearance than the Normal (CN) group. This is critical for applications with high rotational speeds or where thermal expansion of the shaft and housing is expected. |
6006-2RS1/C3 Bearing Structural Features & Performance Benefits
- Robust Construction & High Load Capacity: Manufactured from chrome steel for rings, balls, and cage, this bearing offers high strength and durability. It delivers a dynamic load rating of 2967 lbf and a static load rating of 1855 lbf, ensuring reliable performance under significant radial loads.
- Effective Sealing & Maintenance-Free Operation: The 2RS1 contact seals effectively shield the bearing interior from dust, moisture, and other contaminants while retaining the factory-applied lubricant. This design enables maintenance-free operation throughout the bearing's service life in many applications.
- Optimized for Thermal Conditions: The C3 radial clearance is a key feature that prevents pre-loading and potential seizure in applications where operational heat causes the shaft and housing to expand. This contributes to stable performance and extended bearing life.
- Standard Precision & High-Speed Capability: Manufactured to ABEC 1 | ISO P0 tolerance class, this bearing provides consistent quality for general industrial use. With a limiting speed of 13,000 rpm, it is suitable for a wide range of high-speed applications.
