SW 6206-2Z Shielded Deep Groove Ball Bearing (30mm ID x 62mm OD) | Precision Industrial Grade
The SW 6206-2Z is a standard light-duty single-row deep groove ball bearing engineered for high performance in demanding industrial applications. Featuring a 30mm bore, 62mm outer diameter, and 16mm width, this bearing conforms strictly to ISO dimensional standards, ensuring drop-in compatibility for existing installations. The designation '-2Z' indicates the presence of two non-contact metallic shields, permanently affixed to both sides. These shields are crucial for protecting the internal raceways and rolling elements from large particulate contaminants while effectively retaining the internal lubrication (grease), making the 6206-2Z ideal for environments where high speeds and moderate levels of contamination (e.g., dust, chips) are present, such as electric motors, pumps, conveyor systems, and agricultural machinery.
SW bearings are manufactured using high-purity bearing steel (typically 52100/100Cr6) and optimized race geometry to deliver superior fatigue life and reduced operational noise and vibration. Designed with standard internal clearance (CN or C3 typically for industrial applications), the 6206-2Z manages shaft thermal expansion efficiently, reducing the risk of premature failure under load variations. Choosing SW ensures procurement of a reliable component that minimizes maintenance cycles and maximizes machinery uptime, providing a critical operational advantage over standard commercial-grade alternatives. This bearing is rated for high dynamic and static loads, suitable for both radial and axial forces.
