6201-2RSH/C3WT Bearing Product Overview & Core Advantages
The 6201-2RSH/C3WT 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 ability to efficiently handle radial loads while also accommodating moderate axial loads in both directions. The bearing features integrated seals (2RSH) for robust contamination protection and is supplied with a high-quality, high-temperature grease (WT suffix), making it a pre-lubricated, low-maintenance solution. Manufactured to ABEC 1 | ISO P0 tolerance standards and featuring a C3 radial internal clearance, it offers a dependable balance of precision, durability, and operational stability.
Model Code Breakdown
| Code Segment | Description | Technical Significance |
|---|---|---|
| 6201 | Basic Bearing Number | Denotes a single row deep groove ball bearing with a 12mm bore, 32mm OD, and 10mm width. |
| 2RSH | Seal Type | Indicates contact seals on both sides. The "H" designation often refers to a high-performance sealing lip material, offering superior contamination exclusion and grease retention compared to standard seals. |
| C3 | Radial Internal Clearance | Specifies a greater than normal radial internal clearance. This is beneficial for applications with thermal expansion, heavy loads, or where interference fits are used, preventing premature failure due to excessive preload. |
| WT | Lubrication | Signifies that the bearing is factory-filled with a high-temperature grease. This provides long-term lubrication for the bearing's operational life under standard conditions, supporting its maintenance-free characteristic. |
6201-2RSH/C3WT Bearing Structural Features & Performance Benefits
- Robust Sealing for Enhanced Reliability: The double-sided 2RSH contact seals effectively shield the bearing's internal components from dust, dirt, and moisture. This significantly extends service life in harsh environments and maintains lubricant integrity.
- Optimized for Thermal and Load Conditions: The C3 radial clearance provides operational stability in applications prone to thermal expansion or under heavy radial loads. It ensures smooth rotation and prevents binding, contributing to the bearing's high dynamic load rating of 1529 lbf.
- Ready-to-Install and Low Maintenance: Pre-lubricated with a specialized high-temperature grease (WT), the bearing is immediately operational upon installation. This eliminates the need for initial lubrication and reduces long-term maintenance requirements, offering a true "fit-and-forget" solution.
- Precision Engineering: Manufactured from chrome steel for both rings and balls, and adhering to ABEC 1 | ISO P0 tolerance standards, this bearing delivers consistent performance, low noise, and smooth operation essential for a wide range of industrial machinery.
6201-2RSH/C3WT Bearing Typical Application Areas
