W 61702 R-2Z Bearing Product Overview & Core Advantages
The W 61702 R-2Z is a single row deep groove ball bearing designed for compact applications requiring high precision and reliability. As a metric bearing, it excels in handling primarily radial loads and is constructed entirely from stainless steel for enhanced corrosion resistance. Its key advantages include a shielded design for contaminant protection, pre-lubrication for immediate operation, and a flanged outer ring for simplified mounting and axial location. This combination makes it an ideal choice for applications demanding a long service life and minimal maintenance in challenging environments.
Model Code Breakdown
| Code Segment | Technical Meaning |
|---|---|
| W 61702 | Basic bearing designation for a single row deep groove ball bearing with a 15 mm bore diameter. |
| R | Denotes a flanged outer ring, which aids in axial location and simplifies housing design. |
| 2Z | Signifies shielded on both sides. This provides effective protection against solid contaminants while maintaining low friction. |
W 61702 R-2Z Bearing Structural Features & Performance Benefits
- Compact & Lightweight Design: With a 4 mm width and a weight of only 0.0036 kg, this bearing is engineered for space-constrained and weight-sensitive applications.
- Robust Stainless Steel Construction: All components, including the rings, balls, and cage, are made from stainless steel, offering excellent resistance to corrosion and enabling use in a wide temperature range from -30°C to 120°C.
- Flanged Outer Ring: The flange (22.5 mm outer diameter) provides positive axial location, simplifies mounting, and can reduce the need for complex housing shoulders.
- Shielded & Pre-lubricated: The 2Z shields protect the internal bearing components from dust and other particles. Combined with factory-applied grease lubrication, this ensures quiet operation and a long, maintenance-free service life under normal conditions.
- Precision & Load Capacity: Manufactured to P0 tolerance class with a CN radial internal clearance, it offers reliable performance. The radial dynamic load rating of 118 lbf and static load rating of 65 lbf make it suitable for a variety of light to moderate load applications.
