SF685 2rs Bearing Product Overview & Core Advantages
The SF685 2RS is a metric miniature deep groove ball bearing engineered for precision applications requiring compact design and reliable performance. Featuring a single row construction with integral rubber seals (2RS), this bearing provides effective protection against contaminants while retaining lubrication. Manufactured entirely from stainless steel (rings, balls, and cage), it offers excellent corrosion resistance. Its primary advantages include handling radial loads efficiently, maintaining stable operation across a wide temperature range (-30° to 110°C), and delivering smooth performance in compact spaces where space and weight are critical factors.
Model Code Breakdown
| Code Segment | Technical Meaning |
|---|---|
| SF685 | Basic bearing designation indicating 5mm bore diameter, 11mm outside diameter, and 5mm width |
| 2RS | Bearing features double rubber contact seals on both sides for superior contamination protection and lubricant retention |
SF685 2rs Bearing Structural Features & Performance Benefits
- Compact & Lightweight Design: With dimensions of 5×11×5mm and weighing only 2.15g, this bearing is ideal for space-constrained applications requiring minimal weight.
- Enhanced Sealing Performance: The double rubber seals (2RS) provide excellent protection against dust, moisture, and other contaminants while effectively retaining lubrication.
- Corrosion Resistance: Complete stainless steel construction (rings, balls, and cage) ensures reliable performance in harsh environments and prevents rust formation.
- Precision Operation: Manufactured to ABEC1 tolerance class with controlled radial internal clearance (MC3: 0.002-0.013mm) for smooth, consistent operation.
- Optimized Load Capacity: Features 8 precision balls with 1.588mm diameter, providing balanced radial dynamic load rating of 123 lbf and static load rating of 46 lbf.
