R2-5-2RS Inch Series Miniature Ball Bearing | Sealed Contamination Defense | 3.175×7.938×3.571mm

R2-5-2RS Inch Series Miniature Ball Bearing | Sealed Contamination Defense | 3.175×7.938×3.571mm

The R2-5-2RS is a highly resilient inch-series miniature deep groove ball bearing engineered to deliver reliable rotation in environments prone to dust and moisture. Featuring a standard 1/8" inner diameter, this micro bearing is equipped with dual contact rubber seals (2RS) crafted from durable NBR (Nitrile Butadiene Rubber). Unlike standard metal shields, these contact seals create a physical barrier against external particle ingress and fluid splashes. This heavily shielded architecture effectively locks in premium factory grease while preventing abrasive contaminants from reaching the raceways, making the R2-5-2RS an essential component for demanding outdoor applications and exposed micro-mechanisms.

R2-5-2RS Miniature Deep Groove Ball Bearing 3.175 × 7.938 × 3.571 mm | Maximum Protection & Longevity

Constructed to balance compact dimensions with heavy-duty environmental shielding, the R2-5-2RS excels in applications that require strict contamination control without sacrificing precision. Whether it is stabilizing the drive shaft of a remote-controlled vehicle or supporting an automated medical dispenser, this bearing ensures consistent uptime. The optimized internal geometry and precision ball complement work together to manage moderate radial loads, dampening vibration and extending the overall service life of the surrounding equipment.

Key Performance Features

01. Dual Contact Rubber Sealing (2RS)

Fitted with NBR rubber seals on both sides, this bearing provides a superior physical barrier against dirt, moisture, and debris compared to standard ZZ models. The seal lip makes direct, light contact with the inner ring recess, creating an enclosed micro-environment that drastically improves grease retention and prevents internal corrosion, even in harsh working conditions.

02. Versatile Inch-Sized Footprint

Engineered to maximize utility in tight spaces, the 1/8-inch bore and 5/16-inch outer diameter provide a widely compatible, industry-standard footprint. Despite the addition of contact seals, the R2-5-2RS maintains a highly compact 9/64-inch width, integrating smoothly into existing micro-assemblies without requiring housing modifications.

03. High-Carbon Chrome Steel (SAE 52100)

Forged from premium SAE 52100 (GCr15) Chrome Steel, the inner rings, outer rings, and rolling elements undergo advanced heat treatment to reach peak Rockwell hardness. This ensures exceptional resistance to rolling contact fatigue and wear, maintaining ISO 492 P0 to P5 precision standards throughout its operational life.
