6202ANR/C3 Bearing Product Overview & Core Advantages
The 6202ANR/C3 is a single row deep groove ball bearing engineered for robust performance in demanding applications. This metric bearing features an integral snap ring on its outer ring, enabling simplified axial location within a housing. Manufactured to ABEC 1 | ISO P0 tolerance standards, it delivers reliable precision. A key characteristic is its C3 radial internal clearance, which accommodates thermal expansion, making it suitable for applications with elevated operating temperatures or where interference fits are used. Its open design allows for versatile lubrication options, supporting optimal performance across its specified temperature range.
6202ANR/C3 Bearing Model Code Explained, Specifications & Naming Convention
| Code Segment | Technical Meaning | Benefit |
|---|---|---|
| 6202 | Standard designation for a single row deep groove ball bearing with a 15mm bore, 35mm OD, and 11mm width. | Defines the core bearing dimensions and type. |
| A | Internal design variant, typically indicating optimized internal geometry. | Enhances load capacity and operational smoothness. |
| NR | Snap Ring groove and snap ring fitted on the outer ring. | Facilitates easy axial positioning, simplifying housing design and assembly. |
| C3 | Radial internal clearance greater than Normal (CN) group. | Compensates for thermal expansion, preventing preload and ensuring smooth operation under thermal or fit-induced stresses. |
6202ANR/C3 Bearing Structural Features & Performance Benefits
- Deep Groove Raceway & Single Row Design: Enables the bearing to handle significant radial loads and moderate axial loads in both directions, offering versatile load-carrying capability.
- Snap Ring (NR) Feature: The integrated snap ring provides a positive axial locating surface, which increases operational rigidity and streamlines the assembly process by eliminating the need for complex housing shoulders or end caps.
- Optimized Internal Geometry (A-design): Contributes to lower noise and vibration levels, enhancing the smoothness of rotation.
- C3 Radial Clearance: This greater-than-normal clearance is critical for applications with high rotational speeds or where temperature fluctuations are expected, preventing binding and reducing friction and heat generation.
- High-Quality Chrome Steel Construction: All core components (rings, balls, cage) are made from chrome steel, providing high hardness, wear resistance, and a long service life.
- Open Seal Type: Allows for the application of a wide range of lubricants to suit specific operational needs, contributing to its high limiting speed of 20,000 rpm.
