6308 TN9/C4 Bearing Product Overview & Core Advantages
The 6308 C4 is a single row deep groove ball bearing designed for robust performance in general industrial applications. Engineered with open construction and manufactured to ABEC 1 | ISO P0 tolerance class, it delivers reliable operation and consistent quality. A key feature is its increased radial internal clearance (C4), making it particularly suitable for applications with thermal expansion or where interference fits are used, ensuring optimal performance under varying operational conditions.
Model Code Breakdown
| Model Segment | Interpretation | Technical Significance |
|---|---|---|
| 6308 | Basic Bearing Number | Denotes a medium duty series deep groove ball bearing with a 40mm bore, 90mm OD, and 23mm width. |
| C4 | Radial Internal Clearance | Specifies a greater than normal radial internal clearance group. This is critical for applications involving shaft or housing thermal expansion, heavy interference fits, or where lower operating temperatures are expected. |
6308 TN9/C4 Bearing Structural Features & Performance Benefits
- Optimized Load Capacity: The single row deep groove raceway design enables the bearing to accommodate significant radial loads and moderate axial loads in both directions, providing versatile load-handling capability.
- High-Speed Capability: The lightweight, durable nylon cage ensures smooth operation and guides the balls effectively, contributing to the bearing's high limiting speed of 7,500 rpm.
- Robust Construction: Manufactured from high-carbon chrome steel for both rings and balls, the bearing offers excellent hardness, wear resistance, and a long operational lifespan.
- Application Flexibility: The open design and C4 clearance allow for adaptability in challenging environments, accommodating thermal gradients and fit conditions that would compromise standard clearance bearings.
