Deep Groove Ball Bearings SKF 6020 -2Z

The SKF 6020-2Z deep groove ball bearing, with a 100 mm bore and cover plates on both sides, provides effective protection for rotating shafts.

This single-row deep groove ball bearing 6020 -2Z is designed for combined loads acting predominantly radially on the shaft. The construction, made from standard rolling bearing steel 100Cr6, also accommodates axial forces in both directions. Thanks to its manufacture in the SKF Explorer performance class, this design offers consistent running accuracy. The bearing has the following key dimensions: a bore diameter of 100 mm, an outside diameter of 150 mm and a width of 24 mm.

In which applications is the 6020-2Z deep groove ball bearing used?

The rolling bearing is used in general mechanical engineering for shaft mountings subject to radial and axial loads. Thanks to the cylindrical outer ring without a groove or flange, the bearing can be fitted directly into cylindrical housing bores. The integrated sheet steel cage guides the rolling elements smoothly and with low vibration. With a permissible temperature range of –20 to +120 degrees Celsius, the bearing is suitable for typical operating environments in industrial drive technology.

What are the distinctive features of the -2Z end plates and the P6 tolerance?

The sheet metal end plates on both sides protect the interior from coarse dirt particles without generating additional friction or abrasive forces at the sealing lips. This makes the variant suitable for higher speeds and protects the bearing from particle ingress. Furthermore, the tighter dimensional accuracy of tolerance class P6, combined with standard running accuracy PN, facilitates the selection of a precise fit on the 100 mm shaft and within the housing.
