Bearings cut friction and noise
The deep-groove ball bearings' low running noise is achieved with a new type of lubricant, which also minimises the bearing's starting torque even at low operating temperatures.
NKE Austria has released a range of single-row deep-groove ball bearings The ball bearings provide reduced running noise, longer relubrication intervals and a low starting torque

Novel bearing design eliminates pump maintenance
In collaboration with a large pump maker, bearing manufacturer NKE has developed a new modular system for the bearing arrangements to rationalise a whole pump generation.
The low running noise is achieved with a new type of lubricant, which also minimises the bearing's starting torque even at low operating temperatures.
The lubricant has a long service life over a wide temperature range - from minus 50 to plus 150C.
The bearings feature a pair of newly developed double-lipped labyrinth seals, which provide better protection from contamination and improve grease retention in spite of the low friction.
The bearings' raceways have an enhanced surface finish, which reduces wear and keeps the operating temperature low.
Their high-grade balls ensure smooth running and reduced noise compared to conventional deep groove ball bearings.
The range of single-row deep groove ball bearings is available from stock in the size ranges 6000 to 6012, 6200 to 6212 and 6300 to 6310, with bore diameters from 10 to 60 or 50mm, in an open version, a 2RS2 version (sealed with two synthetic rubber seals) and a 2Z version (sealed with two steel shields) and with clearances CN (standard) and C3.
Other versions and sizes are available on request.
