Key Performance Features

01. Precision-Grade Smoothness

Manufactured using high-quality GCr15 Chrome Steel, the 686-2RS features super-finished raceways that minimize friction and vibration. This ensures an ultra-quiet operation, which is essential for consumer electronics and medical devices where noise reduction is a key selling point.

02. High Power-to-Size Ratio

Despite its miniature 13mm footprint, the 686-2RS offers a robust dynamic load rating of 1.08 kN. Its optimized internal geometry allows it to handle high-speed rotations without excessive heat buildup, making it a reliable choice for intensive duty cycles.

03. Enhanced Environmental Sealing

The dual 2RS nitrile rubber seals are designed to create a secure contact barrier. This setup is superior for applications exposed to the elements, preventing premature bearing failure caused by particle ingress and ensuring the factory-applied grease remains effective throughout the bearing’s lifecycle.
