Product Overview: The 6918 Thin-Section Deep Groove Ball Bearing
The 6918 bearing is a specialized, thin-section component from our 6900 Series of Deep Groove Ball Bearings. With precise dimensions of 90x125x18mm, this bearing is engineered with a significantly smaller cross-section compared to standard bearings of the same bore size. This compact and lightweight design makes it an excellent choice for applications where space is limited and weight reduction is critical. Despite its slender profile, the 6918 is capable of handling both radial and axial loads, making it a versatile solution for a wide range of industrial and high-tech machinery.
As a premier supplier of industrial components, we ensure that our 6918 bearings meet stringent quality standards, delivering reliable performance and a long operational life. Its deep raceway grooves and precision engineering allow for high-speed operation with minimal friction, contributing to the overall efficiency of your equipment.
