Product Overview: The 6811 Thin Section Deep Groove Ball Bearing
The 6811 bearing is a specialized single-row deep groove ball bearing, part of our 6800 Series of thin section bearings. With compact dimensions of 55x72x9mm, this bearing is engineered for applications where space and weight are critical constraints. Its significantly reduced cross-section compared to standard bearings allows for more compact and lightweight designs without compromising performance. The deep raceway grooves enable it to handle both radial and moderate axial loads in both directions, making it a versatile choice for a wide array of precision machinery.
As a key component in our extensive lineup of Deep Groove Ball Bearings, the 6811 is manufactured to exacting standards from high-quality bearing steel, ensuring durability and reliable, low-friction operation. It is an essential solution for engineers and designers seeking to optimize space and reduce the overall mass of their equipment.
