6301-RS1/C3MT Bearing Product Overview & Core Advantages
The 6301-RS1/C3MT is a single row deep groove ball bearing designed for robust performance in demanding applications. This metric bearing excels in handling radial loads and offers reliable operation due to its sealed construction and C3 radial internal clearance. Its compact design, featuring a 12 mm bore and 37 mm outside diameter, makes it an ideal choice for applications requiring a balance of high load capacity and space efficiency. Manufactured from high-grade chrome steel and compliant with ROHS and REACH standards, it ensures durability and environmental safety.
6301-RS1/C3MT Bearing Model Code Explained, Specifications & Naming Convention
| Suffix Code | Technical Meaning | Advantage |
|---|---|---|
| RS1 | Contact Seal on One Side | Provides effective protection against contaminants, retaining lubrication and extending service life. |
| C3 | Greater than Normal Radial Internal Clearance | Accommodates thermal expansion, making it suitable for applications with high operating temperatures or where fits cause a reduction in internal clearance. |
| MT | No Lubrication (None) | Ready for immediate use in specific environments; allows for custom lubrication if required by the application. |
6301-RS1/C3MT Bearing Structural Features & Performance Benefits
Robust Construction: Built entirely from chrome steel (rings, balls, and cage), this bearing offers high strength and resistance to wear, ensuring consistent performance under the specified radial dynamic load rating of 2181 lbf.
Sealed for Protection: The RS1 contact seal effectively shields the bearing internals from dust, moisture, and other contaminants. This design enhances reliability and is ideal for environments where cleanliness is a concern.
Optimized Internal Clearance: The C3 clearance is a key feature for applications involving thermal expansion or interference fits. It prevents premature failure by ensuring optimal rolling element operation under these conditions.
High-Speed Capability: With a limiting speed of 20,000 rpm, this bearing is engineered for high-velocity applications, supported by its precision ABEC 1 | ISO P0 tolerance class.
