Product Review

The 600 Series is designed for moderate speeds and medium thrust loads. These bearings utilize a full ball complement. Rings are cold forged from strip steel and are carefully heat treated. The entire assembly is housed in a soft steel band which lends itself to an easy press fit into a housing. The band also serves as a dust shield and helps retain the bearing lubricant. The upper ring is free to rotate in the band and has a close fit in the bore for the shaft. The lower ring is fixed in the band and has a shaft clearance in the bore. RBC Nice Bearings is a subsidiary of RBC Bearings. RBC Bearings has been providing bearing solutions to our customers since 1919. A publicly-traded company (NASDAQ: ROLL), RBC currently has 23 manufacturing facilities worldwide, with 18 located in the USA.
