Why choose it

Built from hardened chrome steel, this bearing offers excellent wear resistance and a long service life. The double metal shields keep lubricant in and dust out, reducing maintenance and downtime.

• Small electric motors and fans
• Robotics and precision instruments
• General industrial and hobby applications requiring a 6x13x5 mm bearing

Good to know

This bearing is pre-lubricated with grease and ready to install. For high-speed applications above 40,000 RPM, oil lubrication may be used. The operating temperature range of -20°C to +120°C covers most indoor and light industrial environments. Always verify the exact dimensions and load ratings against your equipment's specifications before ordering.
