| Code Segment | Technical Meaning |
|---|---|
| 6014 | Standard deep groove ball bearing series with 70mm bore, 110mm OD, 20mm width |
| HC5 | Hybrid Ceramic designation, indicating Silicon Nitride (Si3N4) ceramic balls |
| C3 | Radial internal clearance greater than normal, suitable for applications with thermal expansion or interference fits |
6014/HC5C3 Bearing Structural Features & Performance Benefits
Hybrid Ceramic Construction: The combination of chrome steel rings and Silicon Nitride balls provides exceptional electrical resistance, reduced friction, and superior performance at high speeds up to 6,000 rpm. This material combination also offers excellent corrosion resistance and reduced thermal expansion.
Optimized Internal Geometry: The deep groove raceway design enables efficient handling of radial loads while accommodating moderate axial loads in both directions. The C3 clearance ensures reliable operation in applications subject to thermal expansion or where interference fits are used.
Precision Manufacturing: Manufactured to ABEC 1 | ISO P0 tolerance class, this bearing delivers consistent performance and reliable operation in general industrial applications. The chrome steel cage provides durable ball guidance and distribution.
High-Temperature Capability: With an operating temperature range of -30°C to 120°C, this bearing maintains stable performance across various environmental conditions.
6014/HC5C3 Bearing Typical Application Areas
