Deep Groove Ball Bearings SKF 6007 -2RS1/C3

The SKF 6007 -2RS1/C3 deep groove ball bearing combines double-sided sealing protection with a slightly increased C3 bearing clearance, with dimensions of 35 x 62 x 14 mm.

The SKF 6007 -2RS1/C3 single-row deep groove ball bearing is a ready-to-fit rolling bearing for rotating shafts with a diameter of 35 mm. Manufactured from standard 100Cr6 rolling-element bearing steel in the Explorer performance class, this design primarily accommodates radial forces as well as axial loads in both directions. The design features a robust sheet steel cage and operates within a temperature range of -20 to +120 degrees Celsius. The P6 tolerance class ensures enhanced running accuracy of the entire bearing unit.

What is the 6007-2RS1/C3 deep groove ball bearing suitable for?

Design engineers prefer to use this deep-groove ball bearing in rotating machine systems and drives where thermal influences or tight fits are present. Thanks to the 2RS1 seals, which seal on both sides, the lubricant remains inside the bearing whilst dust, dirt particles and splash water are kept out. As the cylindrical outer ring has no flange or ring groove, the component fits flush into standardised mounting bores. The C3 bearing clearance accommodates thermal linear expansion during operation and counteracts stresses in the rolling element raceway.

What does the combination of C3 bearing clearance and 2RS1 seals mean?

The C3 designation indicates a slightly increased radial bearing clearance compared with the standard version. This additional clearance compensates for interference fits on the shaft or housing and helps to prevent seizing due to operational temperature differences between the inner and outer rings. At the same time, the 2RS1 seal, which makes contact with the bearing, provides mechanical protection for the bearing interior. When designing the system, bear in mind that the friction generated by the sealing lips affects the speed limit compared to open bearings.
