6204N/C3 Bearing Product Overview & Core Advantages
The 6204N/C3 is a single row deep groove ball bearing designed for exceptional radial load capacity and reliable performance in demanding applications. This open-type bearing features a snap ring groove on its outer ring for secure axial positioning, simplifying housing design. Manufactured to ABEC 1 | ISO P0 tolerance standards with a C3 radial internal clearance, it accommodates thermal expansion in high-speed or high-temperature operations. Constructed entirely from chrome steel, it delivers excellent durability and is suitable for a wide operating temperature range from -30°C to 120°C.
