W 6201-2Z Bearing Product Overview & Core Advantages
The W 6201-2Z is a single row deep groove ball bearing designed for exceptional performance in demanding applications. Engineered with stainless steel construction throughout its rings, balls, and cage, it offers superior corrosion resistance. Its key advantage lies in its ability to handle radial loads efficiently, while the integral shielded (2Z) design protects against contamination and retains lubrication. This combination makes it a compact, reliable, and low-maintenance solution for applications requiring high precision and long service life.
W 6201-2Z Bearing Model Code Explained, Specifications & Naming Convention
| Code Segment | Technical Meaning |
|---|---|
| W | Designates a series of stainless steel deep groove ball bearings. |
| 6201 | Standard bearing size designation (12mm bore, 32mm OD, 10mm width). |
| -2Z | Signifies the bearing is equipped with non-contact shields on both sides. This provides effective protection against dust and other contaminants while minimizing friction, contributing to the bearing's high-speed capability. |
W 6201-2Z Bearing Structural Features & Performance Benefits
- Robust Construction: The use of stainless steel for all critical components ensures excellent corrosion resistance and durability, making it suitable for harsh environments.
- Optimized Load Capacity: As a deep groove ball bearing, it is primarily designed for radial loads, with a dynamic load rating of 1286 lbf and a static load rating of 674 lbf.
- High-Speed Performance: The non-contact shields and pre-lubrication with grease allow for a limiting speed of 28,000 rpm, making it a true high-speed bearing.
- Maintenance-Free Operation: The combination of shielded seals and factory-applied grease provides a sealed-for-life solution, eliminating the need for re-lubrication and reducing maintenance costs.
- Precision & Stability: Manufactured to P0 tolerance class with a standard CN radial internal clearance, ensuring consistent performance and smooth operation.
