How much do you know about the open bearing?

Deep groove ball bearings are the most common type of rolling bearings. The basic deep groove ball bearing consists of an outer ring, an inner ring, a set of steel balls and a set of cages. There are two types of deep groove ball bearings, single row and double row. The deep groove ball structure is divided into two types: sealed and open. Theopen bearingmeans that the bearing does not have a sealed structure. The sealed deep groove ball is divided into dust-proof and oil-proof seal.

General bearings are divided into two types of dustproof structures: sealed and open bearing.
open bearing: This bearing does not have any seals, it is "open type". Open deep groove ball bearings are suitable for high-speed or even extremely high-speed operation, and they are very durable and do not require frequent maintenance. This type of open bearing has a small friction coefficient, high limit speed, and various size ranges and forms. It is used in industries such as precision instruments, low-noise motors, automobiles, motorcycles and general machinery. It is the most widely used type of open bearing in the machinery industry. Mainly bear radial load, but also can bear a certain amount of axial load.

Sealing: There are two kinds of seals, one is the metal dust cover seal, the other is the rubber seal ring. Of course, the two kinds of seals here are only the most conventional two, and there are other special seals. This seal is what you call a cover seal.
As mentioned above, the cover type seal is divided into two materials: metal and rubber, (that is, the material of the sealing cover). So when you talk to others, you can't say that it is a cover type bearing in general, but a bearing with a metal dust cover (ZZ) or a rubber seal (2RS).

Summarize:
Open bearing: Take deep groove ball bearing as an example: There is no dust cover on both sides of the bearing
Covered bearings: Same as above, with metal dust caps or rubber seals on both sides of the bearing (Note: divided into single-sided Z, RS and double-sided ZZ, 2RS)
