Deep Groove Ball Bearings FAG 6020 -2Z-C3

The FAG 6020 -2Z-C3 deep-groove ball bearing, with dimensions of 100x150x24 mm, sheet metal covers and a C3 clearance, provides a reliable bearing solution for demanding shaft arrangements.

The single-row deep-groove ball bearing 6020 -2Z-C3 from FAG accommodates radial forces as well as axial loads in both directions. Manufactured from standard roller bearing steel (100Cr6), this bearing has main dimensions of 100 mm inner diameter and 150 mm outer diameter, with a width of 24 mm. The design complies with standard tolerance P0/PN (ABEC 1). A guided sheet steel cage maintains the rolling elements at a uniform distance and ensures smooth running.

For which operating conditions is the 6020 -2Z-C3 deep groove ball bearing suitable?

This rolling bearing is primarily used in rotating machine components and industrial drives. The cylindrical seat is suitable wherever shafts with a 100 mm diameter are mounted and medium to high speeds occur. Thanks to the gap seals on both sides, the lubricant remains within the bearing chamber whilst particles are kept out. With a temperature range of -30 to +120 degrees, the bearing operates stably even under fluctuating thermal conditions.

What are the advantages of 2Z cover plates and C3 bearing clearance?

The suffixes provide information about the seal and radial bearing clearance. The designation 2Z stands for non-contacting sheet metal cover plates on both sides, which keeps friction low and generates hardly any additional heat. The abbreviation C3 indicates a slightly increased radial bearing clearance compared with the standard version. This design is recommended when a reduction in internal operating clearance needs to be compensated for, either due to tight fits on the shaft and housing or due to operational temperature differences between the inner and outer rings.
