AKN R2-5-2Z F SS (5pcs)

AKN R 2-5-2Z/F/SS Flanged Miniature Ball Bearing Description This is a high-precision flanged miniature ball bearing, model R 2-5-2Z/F/SS, from AKN. It is constructed from stainless steel for enhanced corrosion resistance and features dual metal shields for protection against debris. The flanged design simplifies axial location and mounting in housings, making it ideal for applications requiring high rotational speeds and precise positioning in compact spaces. Specifications Manufacturer: AKN Type Number: R 2-5-2Z/F/SS Bore Diameter: 2 mm Outer Diameter: 5 mm Width: 2.3 mm Material: Stainless Steel (SS) Closures: Double Metal Shields (2Z) Feature: Flanged Outer Ring (F) Industry Equivalent: F682ZZ SS Application Suitable for a wide range of applications including small electric motors, medical instruments, robotics, drones, and precision instrumentation where space is limited and corrosion resistance is required. Country of Origin Country of origin is not specified on the product or packaging. CO2 Impact Choosing this surplus component over a new one avoids the emission of approximately 0.1 kg of CO2, which is equivalent to the energy needed to charge a smartphone 12 times.

FAQ What is the main advantage of the ‘SS’ designation in the R 2-5-2Z/F/SS bearing?The ‘SS’ stands for Stainless Steel. This material provides superior corrosion resistance compared to standard chrome steel, making the bearing suitable for use in humid, wet, or mildly corrosive environments without the risk of rust. How does the flange (‘F’) on this bearing assist in installation?The flange on the outer ring acts as a shoulder, allowing the bearing to be located axially in a housing bore with a simple through-hole. This simplifies the mounting process, ensures precise positioning, and prevents the bearing from being pushed through the housing under axial load. What are the operational differences between a ‘2Z’ shielded bearing and a ‘2RS’ sealed bearing?This ‘2Z’ bearing has non-contact metal shields on both sides, which offer good protection against larger contaminants and have very low friction, making them ideal for high-speed applications. A ‘2RS’ bearing, in contrast, uses rubber seals that make contact with the inner ring, providing excellent protection against fine dust and moisture but with slightly higher friction and lower maximum speed limits. profideals is not an authorized distributor, reseller or representative of the products featured on this website.
