FAQ

What does the ‘2Z’ suffix mean on the RHP 16101-2Z bearing?

The ‘2Z’ (or ZZ) designation indicates that the bearing is equipped with a pressed metal shield on both sides. These shields protect the interior from dust and larger contaminants without making contact with the inner ring, thus generating no additional friction.

Is this bearing suitable for high-speed applications?

Yes, the non-contact metal shields (2Z) make this bearing ideal for high-speed rotations, as they do not generate frictional heat like contact rubber seals (2RS). However, their sealing is less effective against fine moisture or dust.

What type of lubrication is used in a new 16101-2Z bearing?

New Z-shielded bearings like this are pre-lubricated with a specific high-quality grease from the factory. This grease is designed to last for the bearing’s operational life under normal conditions, making it maintenance-free.
