6006-2RS1/VT901 Bearing Product Overview & Core Advantages
The 6006-2RS1/VT901 is a single row deep groove ball bearing designed for robust performance in demanding applications. As a sealed metric bearing, its primary advantage lies in its ability to handle significant radial loads while offering protection from contamination. Manufactured from high-grade chrome steel for both rings and balls, it ensures durability and a long service life. The bearing is pre-lubricated for immediate use and operates effectively within a wide temperature range, making it a reliable and versatile component for various industrial machinery.
6006-2RS1/VT901 Bearing Model Code Explained, Specifications & Naming Convention
The model number 6006-2RS1/VT901 provides a detailed technical specification:
- 6006: Standard designation for a single row deep groove ball bearing with a 30mm bore, 55mm OD, and 13mm width.
- 2RS1: Indicates the bearing is fitted with two rubber contact seals (one on each side). This provides superior protection against dust and moisture ingress.
- VT901: Specifies the type of high-performance grease used for lubrication. This grease is suitable for the specified operating temperature range.
6006-2RS1/VT901 Bearing Structural Features & Performance Benefits
