It belongs to the SKF Explorer performance class and, per SKF, carries a basic dynamic load rating of 10.1 kN and a basic static load rating of 4.15 kN.<\/p>\n<p>The designation can be read directly: <strong>6<\/strong> = single row deep groove ball bearing, <strong>3<\/strong> = ISO dimension series 03 (medium), a heavier cross-section with larger balls for higher loads on the same shaft size; <strong>01<\/strong> = bore code for 12 mm; <strong>2Z<\/strong> = shields on both sides; <strong>C3<\/strong> = radial internal clearance greater than normal.<\/p>\n<p>Shields leave a narrow gap to the inner ring, so friction stays low and SKF lists a limiting speed of 22,000 r\/min for this version, compared with 14,000 r\/min for the sealed 6301-2RSH\/C3. That makes the 2Z design the usual choice for electric motors, fans and other clean, fast-running positions.<\/p>\n<h3>Technical data<\/h3>\n<table>\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<th>SKF designation<\/th>\n<td>6301-2Z\/C3<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<th>Bearing type<\/th>\n<td>Single row deep groove ball bearing<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<th>Dimension series<\/th>\n<td>63 &#8211; ISO dimension series 03 (medium)<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<th>Bore diameter (d)<\/th>\n<td>12 mm<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<th>Outside diameter (D)<\/th>\n<td>37 mm<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<th>Width (B)<\/th>\n<td>12 mm<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<th>Basic dynamic load rating (C)<\/th>\n<td>10.1 kN<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<th>Basic static load rating (C0)<\/th>\n<td>4.15 kN<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<th>Reference speed<\/th>\n<td>45,000 r\/min<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<th>Limiting speed<\/th>\n<td>22,000 r\/min<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<th>SKF performance class<\/th>\n<td>SKF Explorer<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<th>Sealing<\/th>\n<td>Shield on both sides (non-contact)<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<th>Radial internal clearance<\/th>\n<td>C3 (greater than normal)<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<th>Cage<\/th>\n<td>Sheet metal (pressed steel)<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<th>Bore type<\/th>\n<td>Cylindrical<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<th>Lubricant<\/th>\n<td>Grease, no relubrication feature<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<th>Material<\/th>\n<td>Bearing steel<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<th>Net weight<\/th>\n<td>0.0605 kg<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<th>Condition<\/th>\n<td>New, original SKF<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<h3>Typical applications<\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li>Office machines and light automation axes<\/li>\n<li>Centrifugal pumps and pump motors<\/li>\n<li>Fans, blowers and ventilation units<\/li>\n<li>Electric motors and generators (drive-end and non-drive-end positions)<\/li>\n<li>Like-for-like replacement of a worn SKF 6301-2Z\/C3<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3>Compatibility and replacement<\/h3>\n<p>Every 6301 bearing made to ISO 15 has the same 12 x 37 x 12 mm boundary dimensions, so this bearing fits wherever a 6301 with shields and C3 clearance from another maker was used. Suffixes differ between brands: shields are often marked ZZ or 2Z, contact seals 2RS, 2RS1, DDU or LLU, and the clearance C3 may appear as &#8220;C3&#8221; or &#8220;\/C3&#8221;. Always match the sealing arrangement and the clearance class shown on the old bearing; if your machine needs the other closure, the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.rendatsp.com\/ar\/product\/skf-6301-2rsh-c3-deep-groove-ball-bearing-12x37x12-mm\/\">6301-2RSH\/C3<\/a> is the same size.<\/p>\n<h3>Frequently asked questions<\/h3>\n<h4>What is the difference between 6301-2Z\/C3 and 6301-2RSH\/C3?<\/h4>\n<p>Only the closures. The 6301-2Z has non-contact steel shields; the 2RSH version has contact rubber seals. Per SKF, the limiting speed is 22,000 r\/min for 2Z and 14,000 r\/min for 2RSH; the load ratings are the same. Choose shields for speed and low friction, seals for dirt and moisture.<\/p>\n<h4>Which shaft and housing does it fit?<\/h4>\n<p>A 12 mm shaft seat and a 37 mm housing bore, with 12 mm of axial space. The exact fit tolerances depend on the load and on which ring rotates, so follow the machine drawing or the old bearing seat.<\/p>\n<h4>Does the 6301-2Z\/C3 need greasing?<\/h4>\n<p>No. Per SKF it is supplied filled with grease and has no relubrication feature, so it is mounted as delivered and not washed out. Net weight per SKF is 0.0605 kg.<\/p>\n<h3>Related parts<\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.rendatsp.com\/ar\/product\/skf-6301-2rsh-c3-deep-groove-ball-bearing-12x37x12-mm\/\">SKF 6301-2RSH\/C3 (sealed version)<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.rendatsp.com\/ar\/product\/skf-6300-2z-c3-deep-groove-ball-bearing-10x35x11-mm\/\">SKF 6300-2Z\/C3 (10 mm bore)<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.rendatsp.com\/ar\/product\/skf-6302-2z-c3-deep-groove-ball-bearing-15x42x13-mm\/\">SKF 6302-2Z\/C3 (15 mm bore)<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.rendatsp.com\/ar\/product-category\/skf\/skf-deep-groove-ball-bearings\/skf-6300-series-bearings\/\">All SKF 6300 Series Bearings<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Part of the SKF 6300 series stocked by RendatSP for electric motors, gearboxes, pumps, fans, conveyors and general industrial machinery, with fast shipping to Iraq, Saudi Arabia, UAE, Egypt, Yemen, Libya and across the Middle East and Africa.<\/p>\n<p>Every part RendatSP supplies is new and original, carries a 1-year warranty and ships worldwide by air in 5 to 7 days once ready (<a href=\"https:\/\/www.rendatsp.com\/ar\/shipping-payment-warranty\/\">shipping, payment and warranty<\/a>).
