6008-2Z/C3GJN Bearing Product Overview & Core Advantages
The 6008-2Z/C3GJN is a single row deep groove ball bearing designed for robust performance in demanding applications. This shielded bearing excels at handling radial loads and offers reliable operation within a wide temperature range. Its key advantages include a C3 radial internal clearance for optimal performance under thermal expansion, integrated shields (2Z) for contaminant protection, and a high-quality chrome steel construction ensuring durability and long service life, making it an excellent choice for general industrial machinery.
6008-2Z/C3GJN Bearing Model Code Explained, Specifications & Naming Convention
- 6008: Basic series designation, indicating a metric single row deep groove ball bearing with a 40mm bore and 68mm outside diameter.
- 2Z: Signifies that the bearing is shielded on both sides. These non-contact shields protect the internal components from contamination without significantly increasing friction.
- C3: Indicates a greater than normal radial internal clearance. This is beneficial for applications where thermal expansion is a concern, preventing preload and ensuring smooth operation.
- GJN: This suffix denotes the use of a specific high-performance polyurea grease. This lubrication is suitable for the specified temperature range and contributes to the bearing's long-term, maintenance-free operation.
6008-2Z/C3GJN Bearing Structural Features & Performance Benefits
- Robust Load Capacity: Built with chrome steel rings and balls, this bearing offers a high dynamic load rating of 3754 lbf and a static load rating of 2585 lbf, providing reliable support for substantial radial loads.
- Optimized for Thermal Conditions: The C3 clearance is a critical feature that accommodates shaft and housing expansion due to heat, preventing binding and maintaining performance.
- Contamination Resistance & Low Maintenance: The double-shielded (2Z) design effectively retains the pre-applied GJN grease and excludes contaminants like dust and dirt. This combination enables a long, maintenance-free service life.
- Precision & Consistency: Manufactured to ABEC 1 | ISO P0 tolerance standards, this bearing ensures consistent running accuracy and smooth operation, contributing to the overall reliability of the assembly.
