R1-5zz Bearing Product Overview & Core Advantages
The R1-5zz is a precision miniature ball bearing designed for demanding applications requiring compact size and reliable performance. As a single row radial ball bearing with shielded construction, it excels in handling radial loads efficiently while offering protection from contamination. Its inch-series dimensions and ABEC1 tolerance class make it an ideal component for high-speed, precision mechanisms where space is at a premium and consistent operation is critical.
R1-5zz Bearing Model Code Explained, Specifications & Naming Convention
| Suffix | Technical Meaning | Advantage |
|---|---|---|
| R1-5 | Bore size code (0.09375") and series designation | Defines the compact bearing dimensions for specific design integration |
| zz | Double-sided non-contact metal shields (Z-type) | Provides effective protection against dust and debris while maintaining high-speed capability |
R1-5zz Bearing Structural Features & Performance Benefits
- Optimized Load Capacity: The single row design with 6 precision chrome steel balls provides a radial dynamic load rating of 106 lbf, ensuring reliable performance under significant radial stresses.
- High-Speed Performance: Featuring a lightweight stainless steel cage and non-contact shields, this bearing achieves a limiting speed of 60,000 rpm, making it suitable for high-speed applications.
- Precision Engineering: Manufactured to ABEC1 tolerance standards with controlled radial internal clearance (MC3 group: 0.00008" to 0.0005") for consistent, smooth operation and minimal vibration.
- Durable Construction: All-steel construction using chrome steel rings and balls with 300 series stainless steel shields provides excellent wear resistance and corrosion protection.
