6704zz Bearing Product Overview & Core Advantages
The 6704zz is a single row deep groove ball bearing featuring integral shielded protection on both sides. Engineered for radial load applications, this compact metric bearing delivers reliable performance in a minimal space envelope. Its ABEC-1 precision class and standardized C0 radial clearance ensure consistent operation, making it an excellent choice for applications demanding high reliability and cost-effectiveness. The combination of chrome steel components and a stainless steel cage provides a robust foundation for various industrial uses.

| Suffix Code | Technical Meaning | Significance |
|---|---|---|
| zz | Double Shields (one on each side) | Provides effective protection against contamination from solid particles while retaining lubricant. Contributes to extended service life in dusty environments. |
6704zz Bearing Structural Features & Performance Benefits
- Optimized Radial Load Capacity: The deep groove raceway and single row design are specifically engineered to handle significant radial loads (227 lbf dynamic / 162 lbf static rating), providing stable support for rotating shafts.
- Shielded Protection: The dual zz shields offer superior contaminant exclusion compared to open bearings, protecting the precision-ground chrome steel balls and raceways from debris, thereby enhancing operational reliability.
- Precision Performance: Manufactured to ABEC-1 tolerance class with controlled C0 radial clearance (0.006mm to 0.020mm), ensuring smooth running and reduced vibration for consistent application performance.
- Corrosion-Resistant Cage: The stainless steel cage provides excellent corrosion resistance and durability, maintaining structural integrity at the bearing's limiting speed of 10,000 rpm.
- Compact & Lightweight Design: With dimensions of 20mm bore × 27mm OD × 4mm width and a weight of only 5.9g, this bearing offers a space-saving solution for compact assemblies without compromising performance.
6704zz Bearing Typical Application Areas
- Small Electric Motors: Ideal for fractional horsepower motors, cooling fans, and small power tools requiring reliable radial load support
- Office Equipment & Computer Peripherals: Used in printers, scanners, copiers, and hard disk drives where compact size and contamination protection are critical
- Medical Devices & Instrumentation: Suitable for small pumps, analytical instruments, and dental handpieces operating within the -30°C to 110°C temperature range
- Automotive Accessories: Applications in window lift motors, HVAC blowers, and small actuators requiring shielded bearing protection
- Consumer Electronics: Used in drones, RC models, and small appliances where lightweight design and reliable performance are essential
