SR166zz Bearing Product Overview & Core Advantages
The SR166zz is a precision miniature ball bearing designed for applications requiring compact dimensions and reliable performance. As a single row deep groove ball bearing, it excels at handling radial loads while also accommodating moderate axial loads in both directions. Manufactured entirely from stainless steel, including its rings, balls, and cage, it offers excellent corrosion resistance. The inclusion of shielded (non-contact) seals on both sides protects the bearing's interior from contamination. With an ABEC1 precision class and a compact design, it is an ideal choice for high-speed, space-constrained applications demanding long service life and consistent operation.
SR166zz Bearing Model Code Explained, Specifications & Naming Convention
| Code Segment | Technical Meaning |
|---|---|
| SR | Indicates a bearing with a standard radial internal clearance. |
| 166 | The specific bearing size designation in the manufacturer's numbering system. |
| zz | Denotes that the bearing is equipped with shielded seals on both sides. These non-contact metal shields help retain lubrication and protect against large particulate contaminants without significantly increasing friction. |
SR166zz Bearing Structural Features & Performance Benefits
- Compact & Lightweight Design: With a bore diameter of 0.1875" and a weight of only 0.85 g, this bearing is engineered for miniature assemblies and applications where space and weight are critical factors.
- Corrosion Resistance: The use of stainless steel for all critical components ensures reliable performance in humid or mildly corrosive environments, extending the bearing's operational lifespan.
- High-Speed Capability: The stainless steel cage and optimized internal geometry contribute to a high limiting speed of 45,000 rpm, making it suitable for demanding high-rotation applications.
- Precision Performance: Manufactured to ABEC1 tolerance class, this bearing provides consistent running accuracy and low vibration, which is essential for smooth operation in precision instruments.
- Effective Contamination Protection: The zz shields offer a first line of defense against dust and debris, helping to maintain internal cleanliness and lubrication integrity.
