6912 Bearing Product Overview & Core Advantages
The 6912 metric ball bearing is a single row deep groove ball bearing designed for reliable performance in a wide range of industrial applications. Engineered from high-grade chrome steel, it excels at handling radial loads and offers a robust, cost-effective solution. Its open design allows for versatile lubrication options, while the ABEC-1 tolerance class ensures consistent quality and smooth operation, making it a fundamental component for general machinery requiring dependable rotation.
6912 Bearing Model Code Explained, Specifications & Naming Convention
| Model Segment | Technical Meaning |
|---|---|
| 6912 | Standard designation for a metric single row deep groove ball bearing with a 60mm bore, 85mm OD, and 13mm width. |
| Open (Seal Type) | No integral seals or shields. This allows for higher limiting speeds and requires external lubrication. |
| ABEC-1 | Specifies the tolerance class, indicating standard precision levels for runout and dimensions. |
| C0 | Denotes the standard radial internal clearance group (0.008mm to 0.028mm), suitable for most operating conditions. |
6912 Bearing Structural Features & Performance Benefits
- Robust Load Capacity: With a dynamic load rating of 4545 lbf and a static load rating of 3892 lbf, this bearing is built to handle significant radial stresses in continuous operation.
- High-Speed Capability: The stainless steel cage and optimized deep groove raceway contribute to a high limiting speed of 8,900 rpm, ensuring stability at elevated rotational velocities.
- Precision & Consistency: Manufactured to ABEC-1 standards, it provides reliable dimensional accuracy and reduced vibration for smooth running.
- Versatile Material Construction: The rings and balls made from chrome steel (GCr15) offer high hardness and wear resistance, while the stainless steel cage provides excellent corrosion resistance and cage integrity.
