R156zz Bearing Product Overview & Core Advantages
The R156zz is a precision miniature ball bearing designed for applications demanding high reliability in compact spaces. As a single row, shielded bearing constructed to ABEC1 precision standards, it offers excellent performance for radial loads. Its inch-series dimensions, including a 0.1875" bore and 0.3125" outside diameter, make it ideal for replacing worn components in OEM equipment. The bearing is pre-lubricated and features stainless steel shields for contaminant protection, contributing to its long service life and maintenance-free operation in a wide temperature range from -86 to 230 °F.
R156zz Bearing Model Code Explained, Specifications & Naming Convention
| Code Segment | Technical Meaning |
|---|---|
| R156 | The basic bearing designation, indicating a specific inch-size series with a 0.1875" bore diameter. |
| zz | Signifies that the bearing is equipped with shields on both sides (non-contact type). This provides effective protection against dust and other contaminants while minimizing friction. |
R156zz Bearing Structural Features & Performance Benefits
- High Precision & Smooth Operation: Manufactured to ABEC1 tolerance class with a radial internal clearance of MC3 (0.00008" to 0.0005"), ensuring smooth, low-vibration, and quiet running essential for precision instruments.
- Robust Load Capacity: With a dynamic load rating of 69 lbf and a static load rating of 27 lbf, this bearing reliably handles significant radial loads for its compact size.
- Durable Construction: Features rings and balls made from chrome steel for high hardness and wear resistance, combined with a stainless steel cage for superior corrosion resistance and stability at the limiting speed of 53,000 rpm.
- Long-Term Reliability: The 300 Series stainless steel shields retain the factory-applied lubricant and protect the internal components, enabling maintenance-free operation in a wide range of environmental conditions.
