6208-2RS1/C3VE167 Bearing Product Overview & Core Advantages
The 6208-2RS1/C3 is a single row deep groove ball bearing engineered for high reliability in demanding applications. Its primary advantage lies in its ability to efficiently support radial loads while also accommodating moderate axial loads in both directions. The sealed design with C3 radial internal clearance makes it an excellent choice for applications requiring robust performance, extended service life, and minimal maintenance, even under varying thermal conditions.
Model Code In-Depth Analysis
- 6208: Basic model number denoting a single row deep groove ball bearing with a 40mm bore and 80mm outside diameter.
- 2RS1: Signifies that the bearing is equipped with two contact seals (one on each side), providing superior protection against contaminant ingress and retention of lubricant.
- C3: Indicates a greater radial internal clearance than the standard C0 group. This is beneficial for applications with significant thermal expansion, preventing pre-load and ensuring smooth operation.
6208-2RS1/C3VE167 Bearing Structural Features & Performance Benefits
The bearing's performance is derived from its robust construction. The single row deep groove raceway and high-quality chrome steel components provide a solid foundation for handling the specified radial dynamic load rating of 6542 lbf and static load rating of 4002 lbf. The 2RS1 seals are a critical feature, effectively shielding the internal components from dust and moisture, thereby enhancing operational reliability. The C3 clearance ensures stable performance across the specified temperature range of -30°C to 120°C, accommodating differential expansion between the shaft and housing. With an ABEC 1 | ISO P0 tolerance class, it offers consistent quality for a wide range of industrial uses.
6208-2RS1/C3VE167 Bearing Typical Application Areas
This versatile bearing is commonly specified in:
- Electric Motors and Gearboxes
- Industrial Pumps and Compressors
- Material Handling Equipment (e.g., Conveyors)
- Agricultural Machinery
- General Industrial Machinery requiring reliable radial load support
