W 6002-2RS1 Bearing Product Overview & Core Advantages
The W 6002-2RS1 is a single row deep groove ball bearing designed for exceptional performance in demanding applications. This metric bearing features a sealed construction and is manufactured entirely from stainless steel, providing excellent corrosion resistance. Its primary advantage lies in its ability to handle radial loads efficiently while offering reliable operation across a wide temperature range from -30°C to 120°C. With its compact dimensions (15mm bore, 32mm OD, 9mm width) and pre-lubricated design, it delivers a maintenance-free, long-service-life solution for applications requiring high reliability and precision.
W 6002-2RS1 Bearing Model Code Explained, Specifications & Naming Convention
| Code Segment | Technical Meaning |
|---|---|
| W | Designates a stainless steel bearing series. |
| 6002 | Standard designation for a deep groove ball bearing with a 15mm bore diameter and light series dimensions. |
| 2RS1 | Indicates the bearing is fitted with two rubber contact seals (RS) on both sides. The "1" suffix often specifies a particular seal design, providing effective protection against contamination and retention of lubricant. |
W 6002-2RS1 Bearing Structural Features & Performance Benefits
- Robust Sealed Design: The 2RS1 contact seals effectively shield the internal components from dust, moisture, and other contaminants, while also retaining the factory-applied grease lubrication. This creates a maintenance-free system ideal for sealed-for-life applications.
- High Corrosion Resistance: Constructed entirely from stainless steel (rings, balls, and cage), this bearing is suitable for use in harsh environments where corrosion is a concern, such as in food processing, chemical, or marine applications.
- Reliable Load Capacity: Engineered to handle significant radial dynamic load ratings (1097 lbf) and radial static load ratings (629 lbf), ensuring stable performance under load.
- Precision & Speed: Manufactured to P0 tolerance class with a standard CN radial internal clearance, it offers consistent and precise operation. The design supports a limiting speed of 14,000 rpm, making it suitable for various high-speed mechanisms.
W 6002-2RS1 Bearing Typical Application Areas
The W 6002-2RS1 is ideally suited for a wide range of applications that demand reliability, corrosion resistance, and minimal maintenance. Key sectors include:
- Food & Beverage Machinery: Conveyors, mixers, and pumps where washdowns and hygiene are critical.
- Medical & Laboratory Equipment: Small motors, centrifuges, and precision instruments requiring smooth, quiet operation.
- Electrical Motors & Gearboxes: Small to medium-sized motors where sealed, pre-lubricated bearings are specified.
- General Industrial Machinery: Material handling equipment, light-duty fans, and agricultural machinery operating in demanding conditions.
