R4-2RS Miniature Sealed Ball Bearing | Moisture & Dust Isolation | 6.35×15.875×7.142 mm

R4-2RS Miniature Sealed Ball Bearing | Moisture & Dust Isolation | 6.35×15.875×7.142 mm

The R4-2RS is a versatile, inch-series miniature deep groove ball bearing specifically constructed for environments where the exclusion of moisture and particulate matter is critical. Built around a standard 1/4-inch inner diameter, this component utilizes twin synthetic rubber seals (2RS) that maintain direct physical contact with the inner ring. This highly effective sealing mechanism actively blocks external contaminants—such as grit, chemical splash, and water—while simultaneously retaining the pre-filled industrial grease. The result is a highly dependable, zero-maintenance bearing solution tailored for fractional horsepower motors and precision miniature mechanisms that operate in challenging conditions.

R4-2RS Miniature Deep Groove Ball Bearing 6.35×15.875×7.142 mm | Superior Sealing & Low Maintenance

Designed to handle radial loads and light axial loads in both directions, the R4-2RS excels at bridging the gap between compact dimensions and robust environmental protection. Whether it is deployed in portable power tools or dynamic robotic joints, the sealed architecture guarantees that internal lubrication is never compromised. The optimized raceway geometry minimizes friction to maintain cool operating temperatures, extending the service life of both the bearing and the surrounding mechanical assembly.

Key Performance Features

01. NBR Contact Sealing Technology (2RS)

Fitted with premium Nitrile Butadiene Rubber (NBR) seals on both sides, the bearing achieves an exceptional barrier against invasive elements. The contact lip design ensures that the internal grease remains pure and highly effective throughout the bearing’s operational lifecycle, drastically reducing the need for costly field maintenance or premature replacement.

02. Premium GCr15 Chrome Steel Structure

Forged from industry-leading SAE 52100 (GCr15) Chrome Steel, the rings and balls undergo a rigorous, computer-controlled heat treatment process. This guarantees excellent Rockwell hardness and fatigue resistance, allowing the bearing to easily endure repeated cyclical loading while sustaining an ABEC-5 (P5) level of operational precision.

03. Standardized 1/4-Inch Form Factor

With precise inch-series dimensions (1/4" bore × 5/8" OD × 0.2812" width specifically for the sealed variant), the R4-2RS offers universal compatibility for North American and global machinery. The exact tolerances ensure a secure press-fit or slip-fit installation, minimizing housing vibration and mechanical wear.
