| W | Stainless Steel Bearing |
| 6301 | Standard bearing series designation, indicating a metric single row deep groove ball bearing with a 12 mm bore, 37 mm OD, and 12 mm width. |
| 2RS1 | Contact seals on both sides. Provides superior protection against dust and moisture ingress compared to non-contact shields. |
| VT378 | Designates a specific high-performance grease filling. This lubrication is suitable for the specified temperature range of -30°C to 120°C. |
W 6301-2RS1/VT378 Bearing Structural Features & Performance Benefits
Deep Groove Raceway: The geometry of the raceways enables the bearing to handle not only radial loads but also moderate axial loads in both directions, offering versatile load capacity.
Stainless Steel Construction: The use of stainless steel for rings and balls provides excellent resistance to corrosion, making this bearing ideal for applications exposed to moisture, chemicals, or washdown environments.
Sealed and Lubricated for Life: The integral contact seals (2RS1) effectively retain the VT378 grease and exclude contaminants. This combination results in a maintenance-free bearing with a long service life, reducing total cost of ownership.
Precision and Speed: Manufactured to ABEC 1 precision standards, the bearing ensures smooth and quiet operation. The optimized design and lubrication support a limiting speed of 30,000 rpm.
