Manufactured to ABEC-1 tolerance standards, it ensures reliable operation and is an excellent choice for applications demanding consistent performance under moderate speeds and loads.
Model Code Breakdown
| Code Segment | Technical Meaning |
|---|---|
| 60 | Series designation for deep groove ball bearings with a medium cross-section. |
| 18 | Bore diameter code. For metric bearings, this indicates a 90 mm bore diameter. |
| (No Suffix) | The absence of suffixes indicates a standard, open bearing without seals or shields, requiring external lubrication. |
6018 Bearing Structural Features & Performance Benefits
- High Load Capacity: The optimized raceway geometry and use of high-grade chrome steel for rings and balls provide a high radial dynamic load rating of 13084 lbf and a radial static load rating of 11173 lbf, ensuring durability and long service life.
- Precision & Low Noise: Manufactured to ABEC-1 precision class with a standard CN radial internal clearance, this bearing offers smooth operation with minimal vibration and noise, ideal for general precision machinery.
- Robust Cage Design: The stainless steel cage provides excellent strength and corrosion resistance, contributing to stable performance at the limiting speed of 4,800 rpm.
- Broad Compatibility: With a standard open design, it is compatible with a wide range of lubricants, allowing for customization based on specific operational temperature ranges (-30° to 110 °C) and environmental conditions.
