6201-2Z/LHT23 Bearing Product Overview & Core Advantages
The 6201-2Z is a single row deep groove ball bearing designed for exceptional performance in demanding applications. Engineered with metric dimensions and manufactured to ABEC 1 | ISO P0 tolerance standards, this bearing offers a reliable and cost-effective solution for a wide range of machinery. Its key advantage lies in its ability to accommodate high radial loads, while its shielded (2Z) construction provides effective contaminant protection, enhancing service life and reliability in various industrial environments.
6201-2Z/LHT23 Bearing Model Code Explained, Specifications & Naming Convention
- 6201: Standard designation for a single row deep groove ball bearing with a 12mm bore, 32mm OD, and 10mm width.
- 2Z: Denotes the bearing is equipped with non-contact shields on both sides. This provides effective protection against contamination while maintaining low friction and high-speed capability.
- /LHT23: This suffix indicates the bearing is pre-lubricated with a specific high-performance grease (LHT23), suitable for the specified temperature range.
6201-2Z/LHT23 Bearing Structural Features & Performance Benefits
Robust Construction: Manufactured entirely from chrome steel for rings, balls, and cage, this bearing ensures high strength, durability, and resistance to wear.
High Load Capacity: The deep groove raceway and optimized geometry enable it to support significant radial dynamic loads (1529 lbf) and static loads (686 lbf).
Optimized for Speed: With a limiting speed of 22,000 rpm, the bearing is suitable for high-speed applications. The non-contact shields and precision cage contribute to low friction and smooth operation at high rotational velocities.
Maintenance-Free Operation: The combination of integral shields (2Z) and factory-applied LHT23 grease creates a sealed, lubricated-for-life unit, reducing maintenance requirements and downtime.
6201-2Z/LHT23 Bearing Typical Application Areas
The 6201-2Z/LHT23 is widely used in applications requiring reliable, high-speed performance with minimal maintenance. Key sectors include:
- Electric Motors and Small Gearboxes
- Industrial Fans and Blowers
- Material Handling Equipment
- Power Tools and Appliances
- Precision Instrumentation
