W 61900-2Z/VT378 Bearing Product Overview & Core Advantages
The W 61900-2Z/VT378 is a single row deep groove ball bearing engineered for precision performance in demanding applications. Constructed entirely from stainless steel, it offers excellent corrosion resistance. Its key advantage lies in its ability to handle radial loads efficiently while also accommodating moderate axial loads in both directions. The combination of shielded design (2Z) and pre-applied grease lubrication (VT378) ensures long service life and reliable, low-maintenance operation, making it ideal for compact and high-reliability assemblies.
Model Code Breakdown
| Code Segment | Technical Meaning |
|---|---|
| W 61900 | Indicates the bearing series and size. A single row deep groove ball bearing with a 10mm bore, 22mm OD, and 6mm width. |
| 2Z | Signifies that the bearing is shielded on both sides. This provides effective protection against contamination while minimizing friction, contributing to the high limiting speed. |
| VT378 | Denotes the specific high-performance grease used. This grease is formulated for a wide temperature range (-30° to 120 °C), offering stable lubrication and long-term protection. |
W 61900-2Z/VT378 Bearing Structural Features & Performance Benefits
- Robust Stainless Steel Construction: All components, including rings, balls, and the cage, are made from stainless steel, providing superior corrosion resistance and durability in harsh environments.
- Optimized Load Capacity: The deep groove raceway and single-row design are optimized to support significant radial dynamic load ratings (526 lbf) and static loads (281 lbf).
- High-Speed Capability: The low-friction stainless steel cage and effective shielded sealing enable a high limiting speed of 36,000 rpm, making it suitable for high-speed applications.
- Maintenance-Free Operation: The combination of non-contact shields and high-quality pre-lubrication (VT378 grease) creates a sealed-for-life unit, eliminating the need for re-lubrication and reducing total cost of ownership.
- Precision Tolerances: Manufactured to P0 tolerance class and standard CN radial internal clearance, ensuring consistent performance and smooth operation in precision assemblies.
