Deep groove ball bearing SKF 6009-2RS1/C3W64F, Outer diameter: 75 mm | Width: 16 mm | Inner diameter: 45 mm

Ball bearings are essential mechanical components that reduce friction and support various loads in a wide range of industrial applications. Among them, deep groove ball bearings stand out for their versatility, ability to operate at high speeds, and low maintenance requirements.

Designed to deliver optimal performance in high-speed applications, this SKF rigid ball bearing stands out for its ability to withstand radial and axial loads in both directions. Ideal for demanding industrial environments, it features lip seals and long-lasting, food-contact-safe lubrication, ensuring effective protection against contaminants for extended service life and rock-solid reliability.

Features:
This SKF bearing is equipped with first-generation nitrile-butadiene rubber (NBR) lip seals that provide excellent protection against dust, water, and other contaminants. Its sheet steel cage withstands heavy loads while absorbing shocks and sudden load spikes. Thanks to its C3 internal clearance, this bearing can handle high speeds while maintaining low internal friction. It is pre-lubricated with Solid Oil grease approved for the food industry, ensuring safe operation even under harsh conditions (humidity, water, liquids, etc.) and controlled conditions (hygiene, food contact, etc.).

Maintenance:
This ball bearing is designed to minimize maintenance requirements. It is pre-lubricated with a special W64F grease known as Solid Oil: its porous structure consists of millions of micropores that trap the oil through surface tension and release it gradually. Thanks to its effective sealing, the lubricant remains inside the bearing, thereby reducing the frequency of maintenance. However, it is recommended to regularly monitor temperature and vibrations to detect any signs of wear or early malfunction. As the bearing approaches the nominal service life specified by SKF, it is recommended to increase the frequency of inspections to ensure rapid detection of signs of wear and prevent further deterioration of the mechanism.

Sealing:
The SKF bearing is equipped with single-lip NBR rubber seals on both sides, providing excellent protection against dust and moisture. The lip of the RS1 seal is in radial contact with the outer diameter of the inner ring. This sealing system provides good protection against contaminants while keeping the lubricant inside, thereby extending the bearing’s service life. Although the friction of the lips creates slight resistance, they are ideal for dusty or humid environments.
