GATES BX 71 High-Performance Deep Groove Ball Bearing - 35x72x17 mm 2RS Sealed
The GATES BX 71 series deep groove ball bearing is engineered for demanding industrial environments requiring high reliability and minimized maintenance intervention. Featuring robust 52100 high-carbon chromium steel construction and precision-honed raceways, the BX 71 ensures extremely low operational noise and minimal friction torque. This specific model adheres to standard metric dimensions (35mm bore, 72mm OD, 17mm width) and includes dual low-friction contact rubber seals (2RS) that provide superior protection against contaminants (dust, moisture) while effectively retaining the internal synthetic lithium grease for extended service intervals. Its optimized internal geometry supports substantial radial loads and moderate axial loads in both directions, making it ideal for continuous operation.
Designed to reduce total cost of ownership (TCO) in critical machinery, the BX 71 is the preferred choice for industrial motors, high-speed pumps, conveyor systems, and gearbox input shafts. Its durability, consistent performance under high thermal stress, and resistance to environmental factors translate directly into increased machine uptime and predictable operational lifecycles. As a premium GATES product, it meets stringent ISO manufacturing standards, guaranteeing optimal dimensional accuracy and interchangeability with other major brands. Specify the BX 71 for applications where efficiency, prolonged lubricant life, and maximum operational reliability are non-negotiable.
