Key Features

Sealed for Protection

Equipped with rubber seals (2RS1) on both sides, the 6011-2RS1/C3LHT22 bearing is protected against contaminants such as dust, dirt, and moisture, ensuring extended service life in harsh environments. The seals also protect and retain the LHT22 grease, as this bearing is ‘sealed for life’.

C3 Clearance

Designed with C3 internal clearance, it provides extra space between the rolling elements and the raceways. This allows for optimal performance under high speed and temperature conditions.

LHT22 Grease

The 6011 2RS1/C3 LHT22 deep groove bearing is pre-lubricated with SKF LHT22 grease. This grease has a lithium thickener (consistency 2 to 3 to the NLGI scale) and is suitable for the temperature range -50°C to 140°C (-58°F to 284°F).

High-Speed Capability

Engineered for high-speed applications, the 6011 2RS1/C3LHT22 bearing maintains low friction levels, reducing heat generation and wear. It is perfect for use in electric motors and automotive parts.

6011-2RS1 Bearing Part Numbers

Each segment of the part number 6011-2RS1/C3LHT22 provides specific information about the bearing's type, design, and features. Here's a breakdown for the 6011-2RS1 bearing:

6011

6011 refers to the bearing series and size. The first digit (6) indicates that this is a deep groove ball bearing, which is the most commonly used bearing type for its versatility and ability to handle radial and axial loads The next three digits (011) specify the bearing’s dimensions.

2RS1

2RS1 defines the type of seal on the bearing. 2 indicates that there are seals on both sides of the bearing, with RS referring to the rubber seals, which provide excellent protection against dirt, moisture, and contaminants. These seals are non-contact, minimizing friction while maintaining protection. The one on the end of the 6011-2RS1 part number is a designation for the specific SKF seal design, ensuring reliable sealing performance.

C3

C3 indicates the bearing's internal clearance. Bearings with C3 clearance have slightly more space between the rolling elements and raceways compared to standard clearance bearings. This clearance allows the bearing to handle higher speeds and temperatures without risk of excessive friction or thermal expansion, making it ideal for demanding applications.

LHT22

LHT22 specifies the lubricant used in the bearing. LHT22 is a high-performance grease supplied by SKF. This pre-lubrication ensures the bearing is ready to use and reduces the need for frequent re-lubrication, making it suitable for applications which require minimal maintenance.
