S6706 2rs Bearing Product Overview & Core Advantages
The 6706 2RS is a sealed single row deep groove ball bearing designed for reliable performance in compact spaces. Engineered with stainless steel construction throughout (rings, balls, and cage), it offers excellent corrosion resistance. This bearing is characterized by its ability to handle primarily radial loads and its sealed design which protects against contamination, making it suitable for applications demanding high reliability and minimal maintenance. Its ABEC-1 precision class ensures consistent operation for general precision requirements.
S6706 2rs Bearing Model Code Explained, Specifications & Naming Convention
| Code Segment | Technical Meaning |
|---|---|
| 6706 | Basic bearing series designation, indicating a metric, extra-small cross-section deep groove ball bearing. |
| 2RS | The bearing is fitted with contact seals on both sides (RS). The "2" indicates two seals. This provides superior protection against dust and moisture ingress compared to shielded or open bearings. |
S6706 2rs Bearing Structural Features & Performance Benefits
- Robust Sealed Construction: The 2RS contact seals effectively retain lubricant and exclude contaminants, significantly enhancing bearing service life and enabling maintenance-free operation in many environments.
- Corrosion Resistance: The all-stainless steel construction (AISI 440 cage, rings, and balls) makes this bearing ideal for applications exposed to moisture, chemicals, or washdowns, complying with ROHS and REACH directives.
- Precision & Load Capacity: Manufactured to ABEC-1 tolerance standards with a C0 radial internal clearance, it offers smooth running and reliable performance. The radial dynamic load rating of 231 lbf and static load rating of 192 lbf are optimized for its compact bearing dimensions (30mm bore, 37mm OD, 4mm width).
- Compact & Lightweight: With a cross-section of only 4mm and a weight of just 8.3 grams, it is an excellent choice for space-constrained and weight-sensitive designs.
