W 6001-2Z Bearing Product Overview & Core Advantages
The W 6001-2Z is a single row deep groove ball bearing designed for exceptional performance in demanding applications. Engineered with stainless steel rings, balls, and cage, it offers superior corrosion resistance. Its key advantage lies in its ability to handle radial loads efficiently, while the shielded (2Z) construction on both sides retains factory-applied grease and protects against contaminant ingress. This combination makes it a compact, reliable, and low-maintenance solution for applications requiring smooth operation and long service life.
Model Code Breakdown
| W 6001 | Basic bearing designation, indicating a single row deep groove ball bearing with a 12mm bore and 28mm outside diameter. |
| -2Z | Signifies the bearing is equipped with non-contact shields on both sides. This provides effective protection against contamination while allowing for high-speed operation. |
W 6001-2Z Bearing Structural Features & Performance Benefits
Robust Construction: Manufactured entirely from stainless steel, this bearing provides excellent resistance to rust and corrosion, making it suitable for harsh environments.
Optimized Load Capacity: The deep groove raceway and precision-ground components enable it to carry significant radial dynamic load ratings of 994 lbf, ensuring reliable performance under load.
High-Speed Capability: The non-contact shields and optimized internal geometry contribute to a high limiting speed of 30,000 rpm, making it suitable for high-speed applications.
Maintenance-Free Operation: The integral shields seal in the factory-applied grease lubrication, providing long-term, maintenance-free operation within a wide temperature range of -30°C to 120°C.
