Product Overview: The 6401 Deep Groove Ball Bearing
The 6401 bearing is a robust and versatile single-row radial ball bearing from our 6400 Series, a family known for its deeper raceways and larger balls compared to the 6200 or 6300 series, allowing it to handle higher radial and axial loads. As a fundamental component in our extensive range of Deep Groove Ball Bearings, the 6401 is engineered with principal dimensions of 12x28x12mm (Bore x Outer Diameter x Thickness). Its straightforward design makes it suitable for high-speed operation and ensures reliable performance with minimal maintenance.
As a premier supplier of industrial mechanical parts, we guarantee that every 6401 bearing is manufactured to precise industry standards. This ensures it delivers exceptional performance and longevity, even in demanding operational environments. Its ability to manage both radial and axial forces makes it a go-to solution for countless industrial and commercial applications.
