6008-2Z/C4VT127B Bearing Product Overview & Core Advantages
The 6008-2Z/C4VT127B is a single row deep groove ball bearing engineered for high reliability in demanding applications. This shielded bearing is designed to primarily accommodate radial loads while also handling moderate axial loads in both directions. Its key advantages include a robust construction for consistent performance, a C4 radial internal clearance suitable for applications with thermal expansion or interference fits, and pre-lubrication for immediate operation and long service life. The combination of precision tolerances (ABEC 1 | ISO P0) and high-grade materials makes it an excellent choice for applications requiring smooth operation and durability.
6008-2Z/C4VT127B Bearing Model Code Explained, Specifications & Naming Convention
| Code Segment | Technical Meaning | Significance |
|---|---|---|
| 6008 | Basic Bearing Series & Size | Indicates a metric, single row deep groove ball bearing with a 40mm bore, 68mm OD, and 15mm width. |
| 2Z | Shielded on Both Sides | Provides effective protection against contamination from solid particles while retaining lubricant, contributing to maintenance-free operation. |
| C4 | Radial Internal Clearance | Greater than normal clearance. Ideal for applications with expected thermal expansion, heavy interference fits, or where lower operating temperatures are desired. |
| VT127B | Lubricant Designation | Specifies the type of high-performance, lithium-based grease pre-filled in the bearing, optimized for the specified temperature range and operating conditions. |
6008-2Z/C4VT127B Bearing Structural Features & Performance Benefits
Optimized Deep Groove Raceway: The geometry of the raceways allows for efficient handling of radial loads and moderate bidirectional axial loads, ensuring stable performance under combined loading conditions.
Robust Material Construction: Manufactured entirely from chrome steel for rings, balls, and cage, this bearing offers high strength, wear resistance, and a long operational lifespan.
Enhanced Contamination Protection: The non-contact steel shields (2Z) effectively seal the bearing, protecting the internal components from dust and debris, which is critical for maintaining performance and longevity.
Precision & High-Speed Capability: Built to ABEC 1 (ISO P0) tolerance standards, it ensures smooth and quiet operation. The optimized design and effective lubrication support a high limiting speed of 10,000 rpm.
Ready-to-Install & Maintenance-Free: The bearing is pre-lubricated with VT127B grease, making it immediately ready for use and reducing the need for re-lubrication in many applications.
6008-2Z/C4VT127B Bearing Typical Application Areas
