6910-ZZ Deep Groove Ball Bearing | 6900 Series Thin Section | Double Metal Shields | 50 × 72 × 12 mm

6910-ZZ Deep Groove Ball Bearing | 6900 Series Thin Section | Double Metal Shields | 50 × 72 × 12 mm

The 6910-ZZ is a single-row, thin-section deep groove ball bearing from the ISO 6900 series, fitted with double non-contact pressed-steel shields for light contamination protection at minimal drag penalty. Measuring 50 mm bore, 72 mm outer diameter, and 12 mm width, it belongs to the same slim-ring family as other 6900-series bearings but targets applications where the priority is speed capability and low running torque rather than maximum contamination exclusion. With a grease limiting speed of 9,000 r/min and an oil limiting speed of 11,000 r/min, the 6910-ZZ runs meaningfully faster than its rubber-sealed 6910-2RS counterpart — making it the preferred shielded configuration for precision motor spindles, encoder drives, servo actuators, and optical equipment rotating at sustained higher speeds within a compact 50 mm bore housing.

6910-ZZ / 61910-ZZ Deep Groove Ball Bearing 50×72×12 mm | ISO 6900 Series | Double Steel Shield (ZZ)

A compact, high-speed thin-section bearing for precision machinery where bore size and radial envelope must be carefully balanced. The 6910-ZZ pairs the slim cross-section of the 6900 series with the low-drag, non-contact steel shield configuration — retaining grease within the raceway while blocking airborne particles and light debris, without the contact friction inherent to rubber-sealed variants. Factory-greased and ready for immediate installation, it suits enclosed drive assemblies, precision automation systems, and high-speed instrument mechanisms that need reliable thin-section performance over long maintenance-free intervals.

Key Performance Features

01. Non-Contact Steel Shields — Speed Without Seal Drag

Unlike rubber contact seals, the pressed-steel shields of the ZZ configuration maintain a small running clearance against the inner ring rather than touching it. This non-contact design eliminates seal friction, lowers running torque, and allows the 6910-ZZ to sustain 9,000 r/min on grease and 11,000 r/min on oil — significantly higher than the equivalent rubber-sealed bearing. In high-speed encoders, servo spindles, and instrument drives where every fractional watt of drag heat matters, this distinction is operationally significant.

02. Compact 6900 Cross-Section for Tight Housing Geometries

With only 11 mm of radial cross-section between bore and outer ring, the 6910-ZZ fits into housings that cannot accommodate a 6010-series or 6210-series bearing on the same 50 mm shaft. Servo motor housings, robotic joint shells, and precision gearbox assemblies in the 50 mm bore range are frequently designed around 6900-series dimensions specifically because the slim outer envelope reduces overall mechanism diameter, weight, and rotational inertia.

03. Dual ISO Designation — One Bearing, Two Valid Part Numbers

The 6910-ZZ is catalogued under both the legacy 6910 designation and the current ISO 6900-series designation 61910-ZZ. Both numbers refer to exactly the same 50×72×12 mm geometry. When sourcing replacements, cross-referencing supplier catalogues, or specifying in engineering documents, it is worth searching under both designations to ensure full visibility of available stock and equivalent options across all major bearing brands.

Design & Configuration

The 6910-ZZ uses non-contact pressed-steel shields pressed into grooves in the outer ring. The shields extend close to — but do not touch — the inner ring, allowing a small clearance gap that keeps seal drag and heat generation low while blocking larger particles and retaining grease within the raceway. This design is well-suited to clean-environment precision machinery: enclosed housings, sealed gearboxes, and instrument mechanisms where the housing itself provides the primary contamination barrier. For applications exposed to fine dust, moisture, or wash-down conditions, the rubber-sealed 6910-2RS is the more appropriate configuration. C3 internal clearance and P5 precision grade variants are available for thermally demanding applications or where tighter running accuracy is required, such as precision spindle or servo drive positions.

"In precision automation, optical instruments, and servo-driven machinery operating within tight radial housings on 50 mm shafts, the 6910-ZZ delivers the 6900 series' slim cross-section alongside the speed advantage of non-contact shielding. Its 9,000 r/min grease rating, low running torque, and pre-greased factory condition make it a reliable choice wherever engineers need a high-speed, compact bearing ready to perform from the moment of installation"

6907-2RS Deep Groove Ball Bearing For Medical & Laboratory Equipment | Thin Section | 35×55×10 mm

The 6907-2RS is a single-row, thin-section deep groove ball bearing from the ISO 6900 series, fitted with contact rubber lip seals on both faces. The seals bond to the outer ring and bear physically against a machined shoulder on the inner ring, forming a positive barrier that actively keeps fine dust, airborne particles, moisture, and light contamination away from the ball complement and grease fill. On a 35 mm shaft, the 6907-2RS delivers the 6900 series' compact 55 mm outer diameter alongside maintenance-free sealed operation — a pairing that makes it the bearing of choice wherever space is fixed, the environment is less than controlled, and re-lubrication access is impractical or simply not planned.

697-2RS Miniature Deep Groove Ball Bearing For RC Engines & Precision Instruments | 7×17×5 mm

The 697-2RS is a single-row miniature deep groove ball bearing from the 600 series, sealed on both faces with contact rubber lip seals that engage the inner ring shoulder directly. At just 7 mm bore and 17 mm outer diameter, it occupies one of the smallest envelopes in the standard metric ball bearing catalogue while still delivering the contamination exclusion and grease retention that sealed construction provides. This combination — sub-20 mm outer diameter, contact rubber seals, and factory pre-fill — makes the 697-2RS the default choice for compact precision assemblies that run in dusty, humid, or mist-exposed surroundings where open or shielded miniature bearings would require additional housing protection to achieve comparable service life.
