696 2rs Bearing Product Overview & Core Advantages
The 696 2RS is a metric single row deep groove ball bearing designed for reliable performance in compact spaces. This sealed bearing features integral rubber seals (2RS) on both sides, providing excellent protection against contaminants and retaining lubricant. Engineered to handle primarily radial loads, it offers a robust solution for applications requiring consistent operation. Its compact dimensions (6mm bore, 15mm OD, 5mm width) and ABEC1 precision class make it an ideal choice for high-volume, cost-sensitive applications where dependable performance is essential.
696 2rs Bearing Model Code Explained, Specifications & Naming Convention
| Code Segment | Technical Meaning |
|---|---|
| 696 | Basic bearing series designation, indicating a metric deep groove ball bearing with a 6mm bore diameter. |
| 2RS | Contact-type Nitrile Rubber (NBR) seals on both sides. This provides superior sealing effectiveness compared to non-contact shields, making the bearing suitable for dusty or humid environments. |
696 2rs Bearing Structural Features & Performance Benefits
- Robust Construction & High Load Capacity: Manufactured from chrome steel for both rings and balls, this bearing delivers a dynamic load rating of 256 lbf and a static load rating of 94 lbf, ensuring durability under demanding radial load conditions.
- Enhanced Sealing & Maintenance-Free Operation: The dual 2RS rubber seals effectively exclude contaminants and retain the factory-applied lubricant, enabling long-term, maintenance-free operation within the specified temperature range.
- Optimized Internal Geometry: With 7 precision balls guided by a durable stainless steel cage, the bearing maintains stable operation and contributes to a limiting speed of 40,000 rpm.
- Standardized Precision: Conforms to ABEC1 tolerance class and features an MC3 radial internal clearance (0.002mm to 0.013mm), providing a balance of precision and operational reliability for a wide range of applications.
