6201-Z Bearing Product Overview & Core Advantages
The 6201-Z is a single row deep groove ball bearing designed for exceptional performance in demanding applications. This metric bearing features a shielded design on one side, offering robust protection against contaminant ingress while maintaining high operational efficiency. Engineered with chrome steel rings and balls and a stainless steel cage, it delivers reliable service under radial loads and is pre-lubricated for immediate use. Its compact dimensions (12mm bore, 32mm OD, 10mm width) and P6 tolerance class make it an ideal choice for applications requiring high precision and consistent performance.
6201-Z Bearing Model Code Explained, Specifications & Naming Convention
| Suffix | Technical Meaning | Benefit |
|---|---|---|
| -Z | Shield on one side | Provides effective contamination protection while allowing for easier re-lubrication access from the unshielded side compared to double-shielded variants. |
| (P6) | Tolerance Class | Indicates higher running accuracy than standard (P0) bearings, resulting in reduced vibration and smoother operation. |
| (CN) | Normal Radial Internal Clearance | Suitable for most common operating conditions and temperature ranges. |
6201-Z Bearing Structural Features & Performance Benefits
- Optimized Load Capacity: The deep groove raceway and robust construction enable efficient handling of significant radial dynamic load ratings (1637 lbf) and radial static load ratings (697 lbf).
- High-Speed Capability: The combination of a lightweight stainless steel cage and optimized geometry contributes to a high limiting speed of 32,000 rpm, making it suitable for high-speed applications.
- Enhanced Service Life & Reliability: Manufactured from high-grade chrome steel and featuring a shielded seal, the bearing is protected from contaminants, extending its operational lifespan. The pre-applied grease lubrication ensures immediate readiness and smooth running.
- Precision Engineering: Built to P6 tolerance standards with tight dimensional controls on the bore diameter, outside diameter, and width, ensuring precise fit and reliable performance in high-precision machinery.
