FAQ

Question?

What does the ‘2Z’ suffix mean on the SKF 6016-2Z bearing?

Answer?

The ‘2Z’ (or ‘ZZ’) suffix indicates that the bearing is fitted with pressed sheet steel shields on both sides. These shields protect the interior from larger contaminant particles without making contact with the inner ring, resulting in low friction.

Question?

Can I use grease to lubricate this bearing?

Answer?

The SKF 6016-2Z is typically supplied pre-lubricated with a specific grease from the factory, designed to last for the bearing’s lifetime in many applications. It is considered ‘lubricated for life’. Adding more grease is generally not necessary and can sometimes be detrimental if not done correctly.

Question?

Is this bearing suitable for high-speed applications?

Answer?

The suitability for high-speed applications depends on the limiting speed ratings provided by SKF, which are influenced by lubrication, load, and heat dissipation. While shielded bearings (2Z) have lower friction than sealed ones (2RS), they offer less protection against fine contaminants. Always consult the SKF datasheet for specific speed ratings.
