D/W R8 R-2Z Bearing Product Overview & Core Advantages
The D/W R8 R-2Z is a precision single row deep groove ball bearing designed for high-performance applications requiring exceptional reliability and dimensional stability. Manufactured entirely from stainless steel, it offers superior corrosion resistance. Its key advantage lies in its ability to efficiently accommodate radial loads while its shielded design (2Z) and pre-applied grease lubrication ensure long-term, maintenance-free operation in demanding environments. This compact and robust bearing is ideal for applications where space is limited and consistent performance is critical.
D/W R8 R-2Z Bearing Model Code Explained, Specifications & Naming Convention
| Prefix/Suffix | Description | Technical Implication |
|---|---|---|
| D/W | Manufacturer Series / Flange Designation | Indicates a specific product series from the manufacturer, featuring a flange for simplified mounting and positioning. |
| R8 | Bore Size Code | Specifies a standard bore diameter of 0.5 inches. |
| R-2Z | Shield Configuration | The "R" may denote a specific seal/shield variant, while "2Z" signifies that the bearing is equipped with non-contact shields on both sides. This provides effective protection against contaminants while minimizing friction, contributing to the high limiting speed. |
D/W R8 R-2Z Bearing Structural Features & Performance Benefits
- Robust Stainless Steel Construction: All components, including rings, balls, and the cage, are made from stainless steel, providing excellent resistance to corrosion and enabling use in harsh or washdown environments.
- Deep Groove Raceway & High Load Capacity: The deep groove geometry allows the bearing to handle significant radial dynamic load ratings (994 lbf) and radial static load ratings (531 lbf), making it suitable for a wide range of industrial loads.
- Integrated Flange for Easy Installation: The flange (OD: 1.2252") facilitates precise axial location and simplifies mounting within a housing, reducing assembly time and cost.
- Shielded & Pre-Lubricated for Longevity: The non-contact 2Z shields retain grease and exclude large particulate contaminants. Combined with pre-applied grease, this design offers a maintenance-free solution with a wide operating temperature range (-30° to 120 °C).
- Precision Tolerances: Manufactured to ABEC 1 (P0) tolerance class and standard radial internal clearance (CN), ensuring smooth, quiet, and reliable operation.
