SC160CP0 Bearing Product Overview & Core Advantages
The SC160CP0 is a high-performance thin section bearing designed for applications requiring precision and space optimization. As part of the Reali-Slim Stainless Steel Bearings series, it features a single row construction and an open design, making it ideal for handling significant radial loads in compact assemblies. Its stainless steel construction and ABEC-1 precision ensure reliable operation in demanding environments, offering an excellent balance of high load capacity and minimal cross-section.
SC160CP0 Bearing Model Code Explained, Specifications & Naming Convention
- SC: Indicates the series - Reali-Slim thin section bearings.
- 160: Specifies the bore diameter in inches (16.0").
- C: Denotes the cross-section size/type (C-Series).
- P0: Refers to the precision class and internal clearance (corresponding to ABEC-1 and standard radial internal clearance).
SC160CP0 Bearing Structural Features & Performance Benefits
This bearing's performance is defined by its specialized thin-section design and material selection:
- Space-Saving Design: With a remarkably thin cross-section (Width: 0.375") relative to its large bore diameter, it enables compact and lightweight machinery designs.
- High Load Capacity: The single row ball construction delivers a substantial radial dynamic load rating of 2321 lbf and radial static load rating of 7880 lbf, providing reliable performance under significant radial stresses.
- Corrosion Resistance: Manufactured entirely from stainless steel (rings and balls) with a brass cage, it offers excellent resistance to corrosion, making it suitable for harsh environments and clean applications.
- Precision Operation: The ABEC-1 tolerance class and controlled radial internal clearance ensure smooth, consistent running and precise positioning.
- Broad Temperature Range: The standard lubrication allows for operation within a temperature range of -30°C to 110°C.
SC160CP0 Bearing Typical Application Areas
The SC160CP0 thin section bearing is ideally suited for applications where space is at a premium and high radial load capacity is required. Common industries and equipment include:
- Robotics: Joints and actuators.
- Aerospace: Control mechanisms, gimbal systems.
- Medical Equipment: Scanning and imaging devices.
- Semiconductor Manufacturing: Precision stages and handlers.
- Optical Instrumentation: Rotary stages and positioning systems.
