It belongs to the SKF Explorer performance class and, per SKF, carries a basic dynamic load rating of 85.2 kN and a basic static load rating of 52 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>12<\/strong> = bore code for 60 mm (12 x 5); <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 5,600 r\/min for this version, compared with 3,400 r\/min for the sealed 6312-2RS1\/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>6312-2Z\/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>60 mm<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<th>Outside diameter (D)<\/th>\n<td>130 mm<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<th>Width (B)<\/th>\n<td>31 mm<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<th>Basic dynamic load rating (C)<\/th>\n<td>85.2 kN<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<th>Basic static load rating (C0)<\/th>\n<td>52 kN<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<th>Reference speed<\/th>\n<td>11,000 r\/min<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<th>Limiting speed<\/th>\n<td>5,600 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>1.73 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>Heavier electric motors and generators<\/li>\n<li>Electric motors and generators (drive-end and non-drive-end positions)<\/li>\n<li>Centrifugal pumps and pump motors<\/li>\n<li>Compressors and vacuum pumps<\/li>\n<li>Like-for-like replacement of a worn SKF 6312-2Z\/C3<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3>Compatibility and replacement<\/h3>\n<p>Every 6312 bearing made to ISO 15 has the same 60 x 130 x 31 mm boundary dimensions, so this bearing fits wherever a 6312 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-6312-2rs1-c3-deep-groove-ball-bearing-60x130x31-mm\/\">6312-2RS1\/C3<\/a> is the same size.<\/p>\n<h3>Frequently asked questions<\/h3>\n<h4>What is the difference between 6312-2Z\/C3 and 6312-2RS1\/C3?<\/h4>\n<p>Only the closures. The 6312-2Z has non-contact steel shields; the 2RS1 version has contact rubber seals. Per SKF, the limiting speed is 5,600 r\/min for 2Z and 3,400 r\/min for 2RS1; the load ratings are the same. Choose shields for speed and low friction, seals for dirt and moisture.<\/p>\n<h4>What does C3 mean, and can I use a bearing without it?<\/h4>\n<p>C3 is a radial internal clearance greater than normal. It leaves room for the inner ring to expand with a tight shaft fit or with heat, which is why electric motors and hot-running machines often specify it. Fit the clearance class the machine maker specifies or that is marked on the old bearing; do not swap C3 for normal clearance without checking.<\/p>\n<h4>Which shaft and housing does it fit?<\/h4>\n<p>A 60 mm shaft seat and a 130 mm housing bore, with 31 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<h3>Related parts<\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.rendatsp.com\/ar\/product\/skf-6312-2rs1-c3-deep-groove-ball-bearing-60x130x31-mm\/\">SKF 6312-2RS1\/C3 (sealed version)<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.rendatsp.com\/ar\/product\/skf-6311-2z-c3-deep-groove-ball-bearing-55x120x29-mm\/\">SKF 6311-2Z\/C3 (55 mm bore)<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.rendatsp.com\/ar\/product\/skf-6313-2z-c3-deep-groove-ball-bearing-65x140x33-mm\/\">SKF 6313-2Z\/C3 (65 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>).
