W 61901 Bearing Product Overview & Core Advantages
The W 61901 is a metric, single row deep groove ball bearing engineered for high-performance applications requiring precision and reliability. Constructed entirely from stainless steel, it offers excellent corrosion resistance. This bearing is designed to primarily handle radial loads and is characterized by its compact design with a 6 mm width, making it ideal for space-constrained assemblies. Its P0 tolerance class and CN radial internal clearance ensure consistent performance, while its open seal type allows for versatile lubrication options in clean environments.
W 61901 Bearing Model Code Explained, Specifications & Naming Convention
| Model Segment | Technical Meaning |
|---|---|
| W | Indicates a stainless steel construction for the bearing rings and balls. |
| 61901 | The standard bearing designation for a single row deep groove ball bearing with a 12 mm bore, 24 mm OD, and 6 mm width. |
| Open (Implied) | No seals or shields, allowing for high-speed operation and custom lubrication. |
W 61901 Bearing Structural Features & Performance Benefits
- High Precision & Rigidity: Manufactured to P0 tolerance class with a CN radial internal clearance, this bearing provides stable and precise rotation, essential for accurate positioning systems.
- Optimized Load Capacity: The deep groove raceway and single row design are optimized to efficiently support radial dynamic load ratings of 564 lbf and static load ratings of 328 lbf.
- High-Speed Capability: The open design and stainless steel cage contribute to a high limiting speed of 40,000 rpm, making it suitable for demanding high-speed applications.
- Corrosion Resistance & Longevity: The all-stainless steel construction (rings, balls, cage) ensures excellent resistance to corrosion and contamination, extending service life in harsh environments.
- Lightweight Design: With a minimal weight of 0.0098 kg, it helps reduce the overall inertia in high-speed mechanisms.
