6008-2RS1/C3W64 Bearing Product Overview & Core Advantages
The 6008-2RS1/C3W64 is a sealed single row deep groove ball bearing designed for high reliability in demanding applications. Its key advantage lies in its ability to handle radial loads efficiently while offering protection from contamination. The bearing features a Solid Oil (W64) lubrication system and a C3 radial internal clearance, making it suitable for applications with thermal expansion or where a slightly looser fit is required. This combination delivers robust performance, extended service life, and maintenance-free operation.
Model Code Breakdown
| Code Segment | Technical Meaning |
|---|---|
| 6008 | Basic bearing series, indicating a metric single row deep groove ball bearing with a 40mm bore, 68mm OD, and 15mm width. |
| 2RS1 | Bearing is equipped with two rubber contact seals (RS1) on both sides, providing excellent protection against contaminants and moisture. |
| C3 | Specifies a greater than normal radial internal clearance. This is beneficial for applications with shaft misalignment or where operational heat generation is expected. |
| W64 | Indicates the bearing is pre-lubricated with Solid Oil, a polymer matrix saturated with oil. This provides long-term lubrication, resists washout, and is ideal for maintenance-free designs. |
6008-2RS1/C3W64 Bearing Structural Features & Performance Benefits
- Robust Construction & High Load Capacity: Manufactured from chrome steel for rings, balls, and cage, this bearing ensures high strength and durability. It offers a dynamic load rating of 3754 lbf and a static load rating of 2585 lbf, making it capable of handling significant radial loads.
- Superior Sealing & Contamination Resistance: The 2RS1 rubber contact seals effectively shield the internal components from dust, dirt, and moisture, significantly extending bearing life in harsh environments.
- Optimized Lubrication & Maintenance-Free Operation: The integrated Solid Oil (W64) lubrication eliminates the need for re-lubrication, prevents oil leakage, and operates reliably across a wide temperature range from -30°C to 120°C.
- Precision & Speed: Built to ABEC 1 | ISO P0 tolerance standards, it ensures consistent performance. The limiting speed of 10,000 rpm is suitable for a wide range of industrial applications.
