The 6013 2RS deep groove ball bearing is a heavy-duty, sealed bearing solution designed for industrial applications that require reliable performance, high load capacity, and effective protection against contamination. As a single-row deep groove ball bearing with double rubber seals (2RS), this bearing is well suited for demanding operating environments where dust, moisture, and lubricant retention are critical factors.
Thanks to its robust construction and optimized internal geometry, the 6013 2RS bearing can support high radial loads along with moderate axial loads in both directions, making it a versatile and dependable choice for a wide range of industrial machinery.

Precision Engineering and Sealed Bearing Design
The 6013 2RS bearing is manufactured with precision-ground inner and outer rings and high-quality steel balls to ensure smooth rotation, low friction, and reduced vibration. The deep groove raceway design provides excellent load distribution across the rolling elements, which helps minimize wear and heat generation during operation.
Equipped with double rubber seals on both sides, the bearing effectively prevents the ingress of dust, dirt, and moisture while retaining lubricant inside the bearing. This sealed design significantly reduces maintenance requirements and extends service life, making the 6013 2RS bearing ideal for continuous-duty and long-term industrial applications.

Technical Specifications of 6013 2RS Ball Bearing
The 6013 2RS deep groove ball bearing features an inner diameter of 65 mm, an outer diameter of 100 mm, and a width of 18 mm. With an approximate weight of 0.44 kg, the bearing offers a strong and durable structure suitable for heavy-duty use while remaining compatible with standard industrial housings.
In terms of load capacity, the bearing provides a dynamic load rating of 31 kN and a static load rating of 23.2 kN, allowing it to operate reliably under high radial loads and moderate axial loads without compromising performance or dimensional stability.
Regarding speed capability, the bearing can operate at speeds of up to 6,500 revolutions per minute when grease-lubricated and up to 7,900 revolutions per minute when oil-lubricated. While the presence of rubber seals slightly limits maximum speed compared to open bearings, this trade-off results in superior sealing performance, longer service life, and improved operational reliability.
