FAQ
Question? What does the '2Z' suffix in 61701-2Z signify?
Answer
The '2Z' (or 'ZZ') designation indicates that the bearing is fitted with two metal shields, one on each side. These shields protect the internal components from larger contaminants like dirt and debris but are non-contacting, resulting in low friction and suitability for high-speed applications.
Question? Is this bearing pre-lubricated?
Answer
Yes, deep groove ball bearings with 2Z shields are typically supplied pre-lubricated with grease for the life of the bearing and are considered maintenance-free. The shields help to retain the grease within the bearing.
Question? Can I use an 'RS' or '2RS' sealed bearing instead of this '2Z' one?
Answer
While a 2RS (two rubber seals) bearing of the same size (61701-2RS) would fit mechanically, it's designed for different conditions. 2RS bearings offer superior protection against moisture and fine dust due to their contacting rubber seals, but this results in higher friction and lower maximum speed ratings compared to a 2Z bearing. You should only substitute if the application's speed is low and enhanced sealing is required.PLC2DAY is not an authorized distributor, reseller or representative of the products featured on this website.
