MF82x Bearing Product Overview & Core Advantages
The MF82x is a metric miniature ball bearing designed for applications demanding compact size and reliable performance. As a single row deep groove ball bearing with an open design, it excels at handling radial loads efficiently. Its construction offers a superior balance of size, capacity, and speed, making it an ideal component for high-precision mechanisms where space is at a premium. The bearing is manufactured to ABEC1 precision tolerances, ensuring consistent and reliable operation.
MF82x Bearing Model Code Explained, Specifications & Naming Convention
| Code Element | Technical Significance |
|---|---|
| Open | No integral seals or shields, allowing for higher limiting speeds and custom lubrication schemes. |
| Flange | Facilitates easy mounting and axial location, simplifying assembly and improving positional accuracy. |
| MC3 Clearance | Specifies a radial internal clearance of 0.002mm to 0.013mm, suitable for applications with moderate operational temperatures. |
MF82x Bearing Structural Features & Performance Benefits
- High-Speed Capability: The open seal type and optimized design, including a stainless steel cage, contribute to a high limiting speed of 71,000 rpm, making it suitable for demanding rotational applications.
- Robust Load Handling: With a dynamic load rating of 40 lbf and a static load rating of 15 lbf, this bearing provides reliable performance under significant radial loads for its compact size.
- Precision Engineering: Manufactured from chrome steel for both rings and balls, and held to ABEC1 tolerances, it ensures smooth, low-vibration, and long-lasting operation.
- Compact and Lightweight: With a bore diameter of 2.5 mm and a total weight of just 0.42 grams, it is engineered for miniaturized and weight-sensitive designs.
MF82x Bearing Typical Application Areas
- Small Precision Motors: Ideal for spindle support in miniature DC motors and stepper motors.
- Medical and Dental Devices: Used in handheld surgical tools, dental handpieces, and diagnostic equipment.
- Office Automation: Critical component in scanners, printers, and small cooling fans.
- Instrumentation and Robotics: Suitable for encoders, sensors, and joints in small-scale robotic arms.
- Radio-Controlled Models: Provides high-speed support in motors and gearboxes for drones and RC cars.
