Overview
The URB 6017Z is a standard metric deep groove ball bearing engineered for reliable performance across industrial and mechanical applications. With dimensions of 85mm bore × 130mm OD × 22mm width, this single-row bearing features a steel shield seal (Z designation) on one side, providing basic contamination protection without the weight penalty of full-sealing designs. The URB 6017Z is widely used in electric motors, pump applications, gearboxes, and general machinery where smooth, low-friction rotation is required.
Key Features
- Single-row design: Compact, self-retaining configuration suitable for radial and moderate axial loads
- Shield seal (Z): Steel shield on one side offers contamination protection with minimal friction
- Deep groove raceway: Accommodates radial loads and bidirectional axial loads without additional thrust bearings
- Standard lubrication: Pre-greased and ready to install; compatible with standard bearing grease
- Low friction operation: Precision-manufactured steel components deliver smooth rotation and low heat generation
- Cost-effective: Standardized 6000-series design ensures widespread availability and favorable pricing
Technical Specifications
