Product Description

Brief Overview

This single-row deep-groove ball bearing delivers dependable radial load support with integrated metal shields for contamination protection. The ZZ-style shielded design makes it suitable for general industrial machinery, pumps, electric motors, and rotating equipment where seal integrity matters. Whether you're stocking standard metric bearings or need imperial-sized alternatives, this bearing provides the foundation for reliable rotational performance.

Key Features

  • Shielded Construction (ZZ): Metal contact shields on both sides seal out dust and debris while maintaining low-friction operation
  • Deep-Groove Design: Optimized for pure radial loads with excellent speed ratings
  • Polished Steel Finish: Corrosion-resistant surface suitable for general industrial environments
  • Chamfered Edges: Precision machining ensures smooth installation and minimal stress concentration
  • Single-Row Configuration: Compact footprint for space-constrained applications

Business Advantages for Resellers

  • High Demand Component: Bearings are essential consumables in any industrial tool or machinery inventory
  • Broad Application Base: Standard deep-groove bearings fit thousands of OEM and replacement scenarios
  • Bulk-Friendly: Shielded bearings maintain consistent pricing even at distributor volumes
  • Cross-Sell Opportunity: Pair with other bearing formats to capture different market segments (metric vs. imperial customers)
  • Stock Stability: No seasonal volatility; steady, predictable turnover

Why This Bearing Works

Shielded bearings eliminate the maintenance hassle of open designs while keeping costs lower than fully sealed variants. The metal shields provide genuine contamination resistance without the drag penalty of full contact seals—ideal for workshops, factory floors, and equipment manufacturers who need reliable performance without constant relubrication schedules.

Reseller Takeaway: Stock this bearing as a core component. It pairs naturally with motor shafts, pump housings, and industrial equipment repair kits. The shielded design reduces customer callbacks and warranty issues, protecting your reputation while maintaining healthy margins.
