6038 M Bearing Product Overview & Core Advantages
The 6038 M is a single row deep groove ball bearing designed for exceptional performance in demanding industrial applications. This metric bearing is characterized by its high radial load capacity and precision P6 tolerance class, making it an ideal choice for applications requiring high rotational accuracy and reliability. Its open design allows for versatile lubrication options, while the robust construction using chrome steel rings and balls ensures long service life and durability under continuous operation.
6038 M Bearing Model Code Explained, Specifications & Naming Convention
| Code Segment | Technical Meaning |
|---|---|
| 6038 | Standard bore diameter 190 mm, outside diameter 290 mm, width 46 mm. |
| M | Indicates the bearing is supplied with CN radial internal clearance (Normal group). |
6038 M Bearing Structural Features & Performance Benefits
High Load Capacity: The single row deep groove construction is optimized to support high radial dynamic load ratings of 43,838 lbf and radial static load ratings of 48,559 lbf, making it suitable for heavy-duty applications.
Precision & High-Speed Operation: Manufactured to a P6 tolerance class, this bearing ensures minimal running vibration and high positional accuracy. The stainless steel cage contributes to stable performance at the limiting speed of 3,800 rpm.
Robust Construction & Material Integrity: Components made from chrome steel (rings and balls) offer high hardness and wear resistance. The open seal type provides flexibility for application-specific lubrication regimes, operating effectively within a temperature range of -30°C to 120°C.
Standard Internal Clearance: The CN clearance is suitable for a wide range of operating conditions and fits, offering a balance between thermal expansion management and operational precision.
6038 M Bearing Typical Application Areas
The 6038 M bearing is engineered for reliability in various sectors, including:
- Industrial Gearboxes and Transmissions
- Electric Motors and Generators
- Material Handling Equipment (e.g., conveyor pulleys)
- Agricultural Machinery
- General Industrial Machinery requiring robust radial support
