6201-ZTN9/VM025 Bearing Product Overview & Core Advantages
The 6201-ZTN9/VM025 is a single row deep groove ball bearing engineered for superior performance in demanding applications. This precision bearing is designed to primarily handle radial loads while also accommodating moderate axial loads in both directions. Its compact design, featuring a 12 mm bore diameter and 32 mm outside diameter, makes it an ideal solution for space-constrained assemblies requiring high reliability and smooth operation. Manufactured to ABEC 1 | ISO P0 tolerance standards, it ensures consistent performance and long service life.
6201-ZTN9/VM025 Bearing Model Code Explained, Specifications & Naming Convention
| Code Segment | Technical Meaning |
|---|---|
| 6201 | Standard deep groove ball bearing series with 12mm bore, 32mm OD, 10mm width |
| Z | Single-sided steel shield for contaminant protection |
| TN9 | Glass fiber reinforced nylon cage (PA66-GF25) for reduced friction and high-speed capability |
| VM025 | Special high-performance grease formulation for extended lubrication intervals |
6201-ZTN9/VM025 Bearing Structural Features & Performance Benefits
Optimized Load Capacity: The deep groove raceway geometry enables efficient handling of both radial loads (dynamic rating: 1529 lbf) and axial loads, providing versatile load-bearing capability in compact dimensions.
High-Speed Performance: The TN9 nylon cage reduces rotational mass and friction, contributing to the bearing's impressive limiting speed of 22,000 rpm. This makes it suitable for high-speed applications where smooth operation is critical.
Enhanced Protection & Longevity: The single steel shield (Z) effectively protects against contaminant ingress while the VM025 grease provides reliable lubrication across a wide temperature range (-30°C to 120°C), ensuring extended service life with minimal maintenance.
Precision Engineering: Manufactured from chrome steel with ABEC 1 precision and CN radial internal clearance, this bearing delivers consistent performance and reliable operation in precision mechanisms.
