6212-2Z/VA218 Bearing Product Overview & Core Advantages
The 6212-2Z is a single row deep groove ball bearing designed for reliable performance in a wide range of industrial applications. Its key advantage lies in its ability to efficiently accommodate radial loads while also handling moderate axial loads in both directions. Featuring integral shielded seals, this bearing offers built-in contamination protection, making it a robust and maintenance-friendly solution for applications demanding high reliability and long service life.
Model Code Breakdown
- 6212: Basic series designation for a single row deep groove ball bearing with a 60 mm bore and 110 mm outside diameter.
- -2Z: Signifies that the bearing is equipped with non-contact shields on both sides. These shields protect the internal components from large particulate contaminants while minimizing friction.
6212-2Z/VA218 Bearing Structural Features & Performance Benefits
Optimized Load Capacity: The deep groove raceway and high-quality chrome steel construction enable the 6212-2Z to handle significant radial dynamic loads (1178 lbf) and radial static loads (8138 lbf).
Contamination Protection: The 2Z shields effectively retain the factory-applied grease and prevent the ingress of solid contaminants, enhancing bearing life in challenging environments.
High-Speed Capability: With a limiting speed of 5,600 rpm, this bearing is suitable for a variety of high-speed applications. The pressed steel cage ensures stable operation at these velocities.
Standard Precision & Clearance: Manufactured to ABEC 1 | ISO P0 tolerance class and standard CN radial internal clearance, this bearing provides consistent and reliable performance for general industrial use.
