6308 N Bearing Product Overview & Core Advantages
The 6308 N is a single row deep groove ball bearing designed for exceptional performance in demanding industrial applications. This metric bearing is characterized by its high radial load capacity and ability to accommodate moderate axial loads in both directions. Manufactured to a P6 tolerance class, it offers superior running accuracy, making it ideal for applications requiring high precision and smooth operation. Its open design allows for high-speed capability, while the snap ring groove on the outer ring provides secure axial location within a housing.
6308 N Bearing Model Code Explained, Specifications & Naming Convention
| Suffix | Technical Meaning | Advantage |
|---|---|---|
| N | Snap Ring Groove | Enables secure axial location and simplifies housing design, eliminating the need for complex end covers or shoulders. |
| P6 | Tolerance Class | Provides high precision with tighter dimensional and running accuracy tolerances than standard bearings. |
| CN | Normal Radial Internal Clearance | Standard clearance suitable for most common operating conditions and temperatures. |
6308 N Bearing Structural Features & Performance Benefits
- High Load Capacity & Rigidity: The single row deep groove ball bearing construction, combined with high-quality chrome steel rings and balls, provides a high radial dynamic load rating of 9509 lbf and a radial static load rating of 5395 lbf, ensuring robust performance under significant stress.
- High-Speed Performance: The open design and lightweight stainless steel cage minimize friction and allow for a high limiting speed of 11,000 rpm, making it a capable high-speed bearing.
- Precision & Accuracy: Manufactured to a P6 tolerance class, this bearing ensures minimal runout and vibration, which is critical for applications demanding smooth and precise rotation.
- Simplified Assembly & Location: The snap ring groove (N suffix) on the outer ring provides a reliable and cost-effective method for axial location, simplifying housing design and assembly processes.
- Broad Operating Range: With a temperature range of -30°C to 120°C, the bearing is suitable for a wide variety of environmental conditions.
