608-2RSH/C3LHT23 Bearing Product Overview & Core Advantages
The 608-2RSH/C3LHT23 is a single row deep groove ball bearing designed for high reliability in demanding applications. This sealed metric bearing excels in providing robust radial load support while offering protection against contamination. Its construction ensures consistent performance, making it suitable for applications requiring ABEC 1 precision and a C3 radial internal clearance for specific operational conditions. The combination of a sealed design and high-quality materials delivers a compact, durable, and maintenance-friendly solution.
608-2RSH/C3LHT23 Bearing Model Code Explained, Specifications & Naming Convention
| Code Segment | Technical Meaning |
|---|---|
| 608 | Standard series designation for a metric deep groove ball bearing with an 8mm bore. |
| 2RSH | Features contact seals on both sides. The "RSH" suffix indicates high-performance nitrile rubber (NBR) seals for superior exclusion of contaminants and retention of lubricant. |
| C3 | Specifies a greater radial internal clearance than the Normal (CN) group. This is beneficial for applications with significant thermal expansion or where interference fits are used. |
| LHT23 | Indicates the bearing is pre-lubricated with a specific high-temperature grease. This grease is suitable for the specified operating temperature range of -30°C to 120°C. |
608-2RSH/C3LHT23 Bearing Structural Features & Performance Benefits
- Robust Sealing: The 2RSH double-contact seals provide excellent protection against dust, moisture, and other contaminants, significantly extending bearing service life and enabling operation in harsh environments.
- Optimized Internal Clearance: The C3 clearance accommodates thermal expansion and interference fits, preventing premature failure due to excessive preload and ensuring stable operation under varying thermal conditions.
- High-Speed Capability: The precision-ground chrome steel components and optimized internal geometry contribute to smooth operation, supporting a limiting speed of 34,000 rpm.
- Maintenance-Free Operation: The combination of high-performance seals and factory-applied LHT23 grease creates a sealed-for-life unit, eliminating the need for re-lubrication and reducing maintenance costs.
- Radial Load Capacity: Engineered to handle significant radial dynamic loads (630 lbf), making it a reliable choice for applications where radial forces are predominant.
608-2RSH/C3LHT23 Bearing Typical Application Areas
- Electric Motors: Ideal for small to medium-sized motors, including appliance motors, fan motors, and power tools.
- Precision Instruments: Used in medical devices, optical equipment, and measuring instruments where low noise and reliable performance are critical.
- Office Automation Equipment: Commonly found in printers, scanners, and copiers.
- Small Machinery: Suitable for gearboxes, conveyors, and other light industrial machinery.
