6000z 10x26x8mm Carbon Steel Deep Groove Ball Bearing with Iron Retainer

This 6000z model deep groove ball bearing is manufactured from carbon steel and designed to CB/T3103-2013 standards, providing a core rotational component for a range of mechanical systems. Its defined specifications—a 10mm bore, 26mm outer diameter, and 8mm width—ensure it fits precisely into applications engineered for these metric dimensions. With a P0 accuracy grade, it delivers the fundamental running precision required for many electric motors, conveyors, fans, and power tools. The included iron retainer manages ball spacing, while the published load and speed ratings offer clear guidance for integration into designs where moderate loads and specific rotational speeds are factors.

Features and Construction

The bearing's construction and published metrics provide the essential information needed for selection and installation in compatible machinery and assemblies.

Material and Build

Constructed from carbon steel, this bearing provides a balance of hardness and machinability suitable for numerous general-industrial applications where high-grade stainless steel or specialised alloys are not required. The component includes an iron retainer, a common choice for maintaining ball separation under standard operating conditions. Its manufacture to the CB/T3103-2013 standard indicates adherence to specified dimensional and tolerance benchmarks for bearings of this type in its region of origin.

Size and Practical Fit

The bearing's three key dimensions are precisely defined: an inner diameter (bore) of 10mm, an outer diameter of 26mm, and a width of 8mm. These measurements are critical for ensuring the component fits correctly onto a 10mm shaft and within a housing machined to a 26mm diameter, with 8mm of axial space. This specific size profile makes it a direct replacement or specified part for numerous small motors, gearboxes, and mechanical assemblies designed around this common metric bearing size.

Uses and Placement

Understanding the operational limits and typical applications helps in deploying this bearing effectively within both industrial and commercial equipment.

Event or Professional Use

In professional and industrial settings, this bearing is suited to applications where its P0 accuracy and published load capacities are adequate. This includes auxiliary machinery, certain fan assemblies, light-duty conveyor systems, and as a component within various power tools. The speed ratings—2860 rpm under grease lubrication and 8736 rpm under oil lubrication—guide the choice of lubricant and suitability for high-speed spindles or lower-speed drivetrains.

Everyday Home Use

For home workshops or DIY projects, this bearing could be used in refurbishing old machinery, building custom tools, or repairing appliances like washing machine pumps, certain garden equipment, or workshop fans where the 10x26x8mm size is specified. It is important for users to match the bearing's load ratings (80kN dynamic, 83kN static) to the demands of their project to ensure reliable and safe operation.

Benefits and Buying Value

The value of this component lies in its defined specifications, standardised construction, and role as a replaceable part within larger mechanical systems.

Reuse and Low Maintenance

As a sealed unit in its standard form, maintenance primarily involves correct initial lubrication selection based on the intended operational speed (grease for lower speeds, oil for higher speeds as per the limits) and protection from excessive contamination. Its value is realised in restoring function to equipment by replacing a worn bearing of identical dimensions, thereby extending the life of the larger machine without a full replacement.

Why Choose This Product

This bearing is chosen for its exact dimensional match (10mm, 26mm, 8mm) to existing hardware, its compliance with a recognised standard (CB/T3103-2013), and its clear performance parameters. It provides a commercially available solution for sourcing a specific mechanical component, with its carbon steel and iron construction representing a standard material choice for cost-effective, general-duty rotational applications where extreme corrosion resistance or ultra-high precision is not the primary requirement.
