MR104 Miniature Deep Groove Ball Bearing For Enclosed Systems | Open Type | 4×10×3 mm

MR104 Miniature Deep Groove Ball Bearing For Enclosed Systems | Open Type | 4×10×3 mm

The MR104 is a precision-engineered, single-row miniature ball bearing designed for mechanical configurations where internal space is strictly limited and operating speeds are exceptionally high. Characterized by its unshielded, open architecture, this 4x10x3 mm component offers zero seal-induced friction. It allows the direct flow of external lubricants, making it an indispensable part for internal assemblies, sealed gearboxes, and oil-bath environments where external contamination is already managed by the main housing.

MR104 Deep Groove Ball Bearing 4x10x3 mm | MR Series – Unrestricted High-Speed Performance

Optimized for ultra-fast rotational mechanics, this open micro-bearing excels in clean-room or internally sealed applications. Because the MR104 lacks rubber seals or metal shields, it achieves the absolute lowest starting and running torque possible. When integrated into systems with continuous oil lubrication, its dynamic threshold effortlessly reaches up to 60,000 r/min. It provides engineers with a highly efficient, cool-running rotary solution tailored for delicate instrumentation and rapid-cycling micro-motors.

Key Performance Features

01. Unrestricted Open Architecture

The MR104 operates without any external shields or seals. This design eliminates contact friction entirely, allowing the bearing to operate at peak thermal efficiency and maximum RPM. It also facilitates easy cleaning, visual inspection, and direct re-lubrication during maintenance.

02. Premium GCr15 Chrome Steel Construction

Forged from industry-leading GCr15 Chrome Steel, the inner ring, outer ring, and precision balls undergo specialized thermal hardening. This ensures outstanding fatigue resistance and dimensional stability, consistently maintaining P5/P6 tolerance grades under demanding dynamic loads.

03. Ultra-Slim 3mm Profile

Unlike its shielded counterparts, the open MR104 features a slimmer 3mm width. Combined with its 4mm bore and 10mm outer diameter, this ultra-compact profile reduces the total component weight to less than 1 gram, making it highly advantageous for weight-critical aerospace and portable electronic applications.
