Deep Groove Ball Bearings SKF 6000 -ZTN9

The SKF 6000-ZTN9 deep-groove ball bearing combines compact dimensions of 10 × 26 × 8 mm with enhanced running accuracy and single-sided protection against contamination.

This single-row deep groove ball bearing 6000 -ZTN9 primarily accommodates radial loads during operation, guides the shaft precisely and handles minor axial forces in both directions. Thanks to its SKF Explorer class design and manufacture from standard rolling-bearing steel (100Cr6), this deep-groove ball bearing is suitable for demanding industrial applications. The cylindrical outer ring has no flange or groove and fits directly into smooth housing bores.

In which precision applications does the 6000-ZTN9 deep groove ball bearing prove its worth?

Thanks to the combination of low frictional resistance and increased precision, this unit is primarily used in compact rotating shaft systems and precisely guided drive assemblies. The dimensional accuracy to Class P6 and the running accuracy to P5 ensure low-vibration concentricity. As the design features a standard radial clearance, it is suitable for installation scenarios with standard temperature and fit conditions at operating temperatures ranging from –20 to +120 degrees Celsius.

What are the advantages of a polyamide cage and a single-sided Z-cover?

The suffix ZTN9 denotes two key design features: a sheet metal cover mounted on one side protects the interior from coarse foreign particles, whilst the open opposite side allows for targeted relubrication from inside the housing if required. The polyamide cage guides the balls evenly and dampens running noise. Before installation, check the orientation of the cover plate to ensure that the protected side faces the potential source of contamination.
