Determine dimensional parameters (basic designation)
First, confirm the three basic dimensions of the bearing according to the mounting position: bore diameter (d), outer diameter (D) and width (B). Limited mounting space: 68 and 69 (thin-section) series are preferred. General-purpose applications: 62 and 63 series are preferred. Bore calculation example: For a 25mm bore, the last two digits of the designation are 05 (25÷5).
Evaluate load and speed
Radial load: Deep groove ball bearings are mainly designed for radial loads. Select the 63 series for heavy radial loads, and 60 or 62 series for light radial loads. Axial load: They can withstand a certain amount of bidirectional axial load. If the axial load is excessive (more than 20% of the radial load), consider increasing the bearing size or switching to angular contact ball bearings.
Speed: Deep groove ball bearings feature one of the highest limiting speeds. For ultra-high speed applications, choose open type or non-contact seals (RZ/VV) with oil lubrication.
Select sealing type (suffix code). Select based on the cleanliness of the working environment and maintenance frequency: Open type: For oil lubrication conditions, minimum friction. ZZ (metal shielded): Blocks large dust particles, low friction, not water-resistant. 2RS (rubber sealed): Best sealing performance, dustproof and waterproof, with slightly higher friction and lower speed rating.
Determine internal clearance and precision. grade
Clearance: Standard clearance by default (no marking required). If the shaft will heat up and cause inner ring expansion during operation, C3 or C4 increased clearance must be adopted. Precision: P0 or P6 for ordinary motors and transmission systems; P5 or P4 for high-precision machine tools or ultra-smooth operation.
Recommendations for common working. conditions
General motors: 6200-2RS / C3 (low noise, high reliability). Home appliances / fans: 6000-ZZ / P6 (quiet, low starting friction). High-speed spindles: 6200-P5 / VV (high precision, low temperature rise).
