6201-2Z/WT Bearing Product Overview & Core Advantages
The 6201-2Z is a single row deep groove ball bearing designed for exceptional reliability and performance in a wide range of industrial applications. Its key advantage lies in its ability to efficiently support radial loads, while also accommodating moderate axial loads in both directions. The integral shielded (2Z) design protects against contamination, making it a robust and durable choice for applications requiring long service life with minimal maintenance. Manufactured to ABEC 1 | ISO P0 tolerance standards, it offers consistent and precise operation.
6201-2Z/WT Bearing Model Code Explained, Specifications & Naming Convention
| Model Segment | Code | Technical Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Basic Designation | 6201 | Standard single row deep groove ball bearing with a 12mm bore, 32mm OD, and 10mm width. |
| Seal Type | 2Z | Features shields on both sides. These non-contact metal shields protect the bearing interior from large particulate contaminants while allowing for high-speed operation. |
6201-2Z/WT Bearing Structural Features & Performance Benefits
- Optimized Load Capacity: The deep groove raceway and high-quality chrome steel construction enable high radial dynamic load rating (1529 lbf) and static load rating (686 lbf), ensuring reliable performance under significant stress.
- Contamination Protection: The double-shielded (2Z) design significantly enhances bearing life by preventing the ingress of dust and debris, making it suitable for harsh environments.
- High-Speed Capability: With a limiting speed of 22,000 rpm, this bearing is engineered for applications requiring rapid rotation. The pressed steel cage and optimized internal geometry contribute to stable operation at high velocities.
- Standard Precision & Clearance: Manufactured to ABEC 1 (ISO P0) tolerance class with a standard CN radial internal clearance, it provides a cost-effective solution for a vast majority of general-purpose applications without sacrificing performance.
