6201-2RS Bearing Product Overview & Core Advantages
The 6201-2RS is a single row deep groove ball bearing designed for reliable performance in a wide range of industrial applications. Its key advantage lies in its sealed construction (2RS), which provides effective protection against contaminants and retains lubrication, making it suitable for environments where maintenance access is difficult. This bearing is engineered to primarily handle radial loads and is characterized by its compact dimensions, high limiting speed, and robust construction using chrome steel for all critical components, ensuring durability and consistent operation.
6201-2RS Bearing Model Code Explained, Specifications & Naming Convention
| Code Segment | Technical Meaning | Significance |
|---|---|---|
| 6201 | Standard designation for a single row deep groove ball bearing with a 12mm bore, 32mm OD, and 10mm width. | Defines the core bearing dimensions and type. |
| 2RS | Bearing is fitted with contact seals on both sides. | Provides superior protection against dust and moisture, and retains lubricant for extended service life. |
6201-2RS Bearing Structural Features & Performance Benefits
- Sealed Design: The dual contact seals (2RS) effectively shield the internal rolling elements from contaminants, making the bearing ideal for dirty or humid environments and contributing to its maintenance-free characteristics.
- Robust Load Capacity: Manufactured from high-grade chrome steel, the bearing offers a radial dynamic load rating of 1529 lbf and a radial static load rating of 686 lbf, ensuring reliable performance under significant radial loads.
- High-Speed Capability: With a limiting speed of 22,000 rpm, the optimized deep groove raceway and precision construction allow for smooth operation at high rotational velocities.
- Precision & Consistency: Manufactured to ABEC 1 | ISO P0 tolerance class and standard CN radial internal clearance, this bearing provides reliable, consistent performance for general industrial applications.
