6201/C3MTVK016 Bearing Product Overview & Core Advantages
The 6201/C3 is a single row deep groove ball bearing designed for exceptional performance in general industrial applications. This metric bearing excels at handling primarily radial loads and offers reliable operation due to its robust construction. A key feature is its C3 radial internal clearance, which makes it particularly suitable for applications with thermal expansion or where interference fits are used, ensuring consistent performance under varying operational conditions. Its open design allows for versatile lubrication options, providing flexibility for maintenance schedules.
6201/C3MTVK016 Bearing Model Code Explained, Specifications & Naming Convention
| Code Segment | Technical Meaning | Significance |
|---|---|---|
| 6201 | Basic Bearing Series & Size | Indicates a standard single row deep groove ball bearing with a 12mm bore, 32mm OD, and 10mm width. |
| /C3 | Radial Internal Clearance | Specifies a greater than normal clearance group, ideal for applications with shaft or housing fits that reduce internal clearance, or where operational heat is a factor. |
