Deep Groove Ball Bearings SKF 6000 -2Z/C3
The SKF 6000 -2Z/C3 deep groove ball bearing combines compact dimensions of 10x26x8 mm with a non-contact 2Z cover and C3 clearance for precise concentricity.
The SKF 6000 -2Z/C3 deep groove ball bearing is a single-row radial ball bearing made from standard rolling bearing steel (100Cr6) with a 10 mm bore, 26 mm outside diameter and 8 mm width. The Explorer version is characterised by dimensional accuracy to P6 and running accuracy to P5. With sheet metal end shields on both sides, the design protects against the ingress of coarse dirt without creating significant frictional resistance. This makes this rolling bearing suitable for industrial drives and repair projects where precise guidance and consistent rotational speeds are required.
What is the 6000 -2Z/C3 deep groove ball bearing suitable for?
This single-row radial deep-groove ball bearing is used to support rotating shafts in compact industrial drives and units subject to radial and low axial loads. Designs with a 10 mm shaft diameter benefit from the combination of low rolling resistance and reliable guidance accuracy. Thanks to its operating temperature range of –20 to +120 degrees Celsius, the unit is suitable for fluctuating thermal environments. Maintenance engineers and designers alike rely on this standardised design when components with limited installation space need to be guided with precision.
What are the advantages of the C3 bearing clearance and cover plates in the 6000 -2Z/C3 model?
The C3 classification indicates a slightly increased radial clearance between the raceways and rolling elements. This additional clearance helps to compensate for thermal expansion caused by heating during operation or tight fits, thereby preventing the bearing from seizing. 2Z sheet metal covers on both sides keep out solid particles and help retain the lubricant inside the housing. As the shields operate without contact, there is no friction at the sealing lips. The interaction with the sheet steel cage promotes stable speed behaviour.
What are the dimensions of the 6000 -2Z/C3 deep-groove ball bearing?
This single-row deep-groove ball bearing has an inside diameter of 10 mm, an outside diameter of 26 mm and a width across flats of 8 mm. The cylindrical outer ring has no flange or groove. Thanks to these standardised key dimensions, the bearing can be fitted directly into corresponding bearing seats for 10 mm shafts.
What does the designation ‘C3’ mean for this bearing?
The designation C3 indicates a slightly increased radial bearing clearance compared with the standard dimension. This increased internal clearance prevents stress build-up should the inner ring expand or the outer ring contract as a result of tight fits or operational heating. As a result, the bearing continues to run smoothly and retains the intended mobility of the rolling elements.
How does the 2Z seal protect the deep-groove ball bearing?
The suffix 2Z denotes cover discs made of pressed sheet steel fitted on both sides. These discs form a non-contact sealing gap with the inner ring. They keep dust and larger dirt particles out of the interior and prevent grease from escaping. As there is no contact with the running surface, no additional frictional heat is generated compared with friction seals.
What do the tolerance classes P6 and P5 mean?
In the case of this SKF Explorer bearing, P6 refers to the tighter dimensional tolerances of the bore, outer diameter and width. P5 defines an even higher level of running accuracy for the rotating rings. Both classes exceed the standard specification. As a result, designs achieve improved concentricity and lower-vibration shaft guidance within the housing seat.
What is the temperature range for which the ball bearing is designed?
The permissible operating range for this model extends from -20 to +120 degrees Celsius. Both the standard 100Cr6 roller bearing steel and the sheet steel cage and metal end plates are designed for this temperature range. Within these limits, the component operates reliably in standard industrial environments and enclosed units.
What type of cage is fitted in the 6000 deep-groove ball bearing?
Inside, a sheet steel cage keeps the balls evenly spaced. The cage keeps the rolling elements on their circular path and reduces direct contact between the balls. The stamped sheet steel is resistant to normal operating temperatures of up to 120 degrees Celsius and is suitable for vibrational loads.
