6206 MA/C3S0 Bearing Product Overview & Core Advantages
The 6206 is a single row deep groove ball bearing designed for exceptional performance in a wide range of industrial applications. Its fundamental design enables it to primarily accommodate radial loads, while also handling moderate axial loads in both directions. Manufactured to ABEC 1 | ISO P0 tolerance standards, this bearing offers reliable precision and consistent operation. A key feature is its C3 radial internal clearance, which makes it particularly suitable for applications involving thermal expansion, heavy loads, or where interference fits are used, ensuring optimal performance and extended service life.
6206 MA/C3S0 Bearing Model Code Explained, Specifications & Naming Convention
| Code Segment | Technical Meaning |
|---|---|
| 6206 | Standard designation for a single row deep groove ball bearing with a 30mm bore, 62mm OD, and 16mm width. |
| C3 | Indicates a greater than normal radial internal clearance. This is critical for applications with high thermal gradients or heavy load conditions. |
| Open (Seal Type) | No integral seals or shields, allowing for higher limiting speeds and facilitating custom lubrication regimes. |
6206 MA/C3S0 Bearing Structural Features & Performance Benefits
- Optimized Load Capacity: The deep groove raceway and high-quality chrome steel construction provide a high radial dynamic load rating of 4384 lbf, ensuring durability under demanding conditions.
- High-Speed Capability: The machined metal cage ensures cage stability and strength, contributing to a high limiting speed of 11,000 rpm and reliable performance at high rotational velocities.
- Robust Construction: Rings and balls made from chrome steel offer high hardness and wear resistance, while the machined cage provides excellent guidance and dimensional stability.
- Flexible Application: The open design and C3 clearance offer flexibility for specific lubrication needs and accommodate operational expansions, preventing binding and reducing friction.
