6204-2RS1/C3VM045 Bearing Product Overview & Core Advantages
The 6204-2RS1/C3 is a deep groove ball bearing designed for reliable performance in demanding applications. This sealed single row bearing excels at handling radial loads while also accommodating moderate axial loads in both directions. Its key advantages include robust construction with chrome steel components, providing excellent durability and a long service life. The combination of C3 radial internal clearance and ABEC 1 precision makes it suitable for applications with thermal expansion considerations and where consistent performance is critical.
6204-2RS1/C3VM045 Bearing Model Code Explained, Specifications & Naming Convention
| Code Segment | Technical Meaning |
|---|---|
| 6204 | Standard deep groove ball bearing series with 20mm bore, 47mm OD, 14mm width |
| 2RS1 | Double-sided contact seals providing effective contamination protection |
| C3 | Greater radial internal clearance than normal, suitable for applications with thermal expansion or interference fits |
6204-2RS1/C3VM045 Bearing Structural Features & Performance Benefits
Sealed Design: The double-contact seals (2RS1) effectively retain lubrication and exclude contaminants, making the bearing suitable for dirty environments and extending maintenance intervals.
Radial Load Capacity: With a dynamic load rating of 2878 lbf and static load rating of 1495 lbf, this bearing provides reliable performance under significant radial stresses.
Thermal Compensation: The C3 clearance accommodates differential thermal expansion between shaft and housing, preventing premature failure in applications with temperature variations.
Material Quality: Constructed entirely from chrome steel for rings, balls, and cage, ensuring consistent performance, high hardness, and corrosion resistance.
Speed Performance: Capable of operating at 15,000 rpm limiting speed, making it suitable for various industrial applications requiring moderate to high rotational velocities.
