Product Overview: The 4201 Double-Row Deep Groove Ball Bearing
The 4201 bearing is a robust and versatile component, part of our 4200 Series of Deep Groove Ball Bearings. With its key dimensions of 12x32x14mm (Bore x Outer Diameter x Thickness), this bearing is engineered with two rows of balls. This double-row design provides a significantly higher load-carrying capacity for both radial and axial forces compared to its single-row counterparts, making it an excellent choice for applications where space is limited but load requirements are high.
As a leading supplier of industrial bearings, we ensure our 4201 bearings meet stringent industry standards for performance and durability. They are designed to accommodate combined loads and are suitable for a wide array of machinery where reliable operation and long service life are critical. Explore our comprehensive range of deep groove ball bearings to find the perfect solution for your mechanical needs.
