6818-2RS Deep Groove Ball Bearing For Industrial Gearboxes & Precision Shafts | 90×115×13 mm

6818-2RS Deep Groove Ball Bearing For Industrial Gearboxes & Precision Shafts | 90×115×13 mm

The 6818-2RS is a thin-section deep groove ball bearing engineered for applications where space constraints and high radial load capacity must coexist. Featuring dual contact rubber seals (2RS), this bearing provides superior exclusion of moisture, fine dust, and contaminants, making it the preferred choice for environments demanding absolute lubricant retention. With a 90mm bore, 115mm outer diameter, and 13mm width, it is a critical component for heavy-duty industrial gearboxes, precision rotary tables, and large-format electric motors requiring stable operation under consistent loads.

6818-2RS Deep Groove Ball Bearing 90x115x13 mm | Metric Thin Section | Double Sealed

A high-precision bearing manufactured to stringent ISO tolerances, the 6818-2RS utilizes a thin-section design to deliver high load capacity in a minimal cross-section. Engineered for maintenance-free operation, the contact seals effectively shield the internal geometry from contamination while retaining the factory-applied lithium grease. This configuration ensures reliable performance for applications with limited housing space, such as printing presses, textile machinery spindles, and industrial automation systems.

Key Performance Features

01. Superior Sealing for Harsh Environments

The 6818-2RS is equipped with double contact rubber seals (nitrile rubber/NBR). Unlike metal shields, these seals provide a tighter labyrinth effect, effectively preventing the ingress of water, fine dust, and corrosive particulates. This design ensures the bearing remains lubricated for extended periods, significantly reducing maintenance intervals in dusty or wash-down environments.

02. Optimized Thin-Section Design

Despite its compact 13mm cross-section, the 6818-2RS delivers substantial load-carrying capacity. Its deep raceway geometry and optimized internal clearance accommodate both radial and bidirectional axial loads. This thin-section profile allows engineers to reduce overall assembly weight and size without sacrificing structural integrity, making it ideal for space-constrained industrial designs.

03. High-Precision Construction

Manufactured from vacuum-degassed high-carbon chromium steel (GCr15/SAE 52100), the 6818-2RS offers exceptional dimensional stability and fatigue resistance. The precision-honed raceways and Grade 10 balls ensure ultra-smooth rotation with minimal vibration. For applications demanding even greater accuracy, P5 and P6 precision grades are available to support high-speed or high-precision shaft assemblies.

Design & Configuration

The 6818-2RS is configured with double contact rubber seals as standard, providing maximum protection against contaminants for long-life applications in harsh industrial settings. While this configuration results in slightly higher torque than shielded variants, it offers superior grease retention. For applications requiring extremely low friction or higher speed capabilities, a shielded (ZZ) or open configuration is recommended. Stainless steel (AISI 440C) variants and C3 internal clearance options are available for specialized applications involving corrosive media or significant temperature differentials.

"Designed for the demanding requirements of modern industrial gearboxes and precision automation, the 6818-2RS combines a space-saving thin-section profile with the robust sealing needed for reliable, long-term operation."
