6008-2RS1NR/C3 Bearing Product Overview & Core Advantages
The 6008-2RS1NR/C3 is a single row deep groove ball bearing engineered for high reliability in demanding applications. This metric bearing is distinguished by its sealed design and snap ring feature, providing robust radial load capacity and simplified axial location. Its C3 radial internal clearance makes it suitable for applications with thermal expansion or where interference fits are used, ensuring consistent performance under varying operational conditions.
6008-2RS1NR/C3 Bearing Model Code Explained, Specifications & Naming Convention
| Suffix | Technical Meaning | Advantage |
|---|---|---|
| 2RS1 | Double Contact Seals (NBR Rubber) | Provides excellent contamination protection, retaining lubricant and excluding moisture and debris. |
| NR | Snap Ring Groove on Outer Ring | Enables secure and simple axial location within a housing, reducing assembly complexity and cost. |
| C3 | Greater than Normal Radial Internal Clearance | Accommodates thermal expansion and interference fits, preventing preload and ensuring smooth operation. |
6008-2RS1NR/C3 Bearing Structural Features & Performance Benefits
- Robust Construction & High Load Capacity: Manufactured from chrome steel for both rings and balls, this bearing delivers a high radial dynamic load rating of 3754 lbf and a static load rating of 2585 lbf, ensuring durability under significant radial loads.
- Effective Sealing for Long Service Life: The integral double-contact rubber seals (2RS1) provide a high degree of protection, making the bearing suitable for environments with dust or moisture. This design contributes to a maintenance-free and long operational life.
- Simplified Mounting with Snap Ring: The outer ring snap ring groove (NR) allows for positive axial location, eliminating the need for complex housing shoulders or end caps, which streamlines the design and assembly process.
- Optimized for Operational Stability: The C3 clearance and ABEC 1 (ISO P0) tolerance class provide a balance of precision and operational stability, accommodating shaft and housing tolerances without performance degradation.
