SW 6002-Z Deep Groove Ball Bearing - 15x32x9mm - Single Shield, Premium Steel
The SW 6002-Z is a precision-engineered single-row deep groove ball bearing designed for applications requiring moderate radial and axial load capacity combined with high running accuracy. Featuring a 15mm bore, 32mm outer diameter, and 9mm width, this bearing utilizes high-grade GCR15 bearing steel and optimized raceway geometry to ensure superior operational efficiency and longevity. The designation '-Z' indicates a robust steel shield installed on one side, which effectively retains factory lubricant (grease) while protecting the internal components from larger contaminants. This design makes the 6002-Z ideal for installations where the opposite side is exposed to a cleaner environment or requires contact with adjacent components.
As a Senior Product Manager, we emphasize that the SW 6002-Z meets stringent industrial quality standards, making it the preferred choice for critical industrial equipment such as small electric motors, power tools, compressors, and high-speed robotic linkages. The SW brand focuses on delivering predictable performance under demanding duty cycles, minimizing unexpected downtime. When selecting the 6002-Z, engineers gain access to a reliable component that offers exceptional value, high limiting speed characteristics, and consistent rotational accuracy, ensuring smooth, low-noise operation essential for modern manufacturing processes.
