NSK 16001 12x28x7 mm deep groove ball bearing

Technical specifications and design highlights

The NSK 16001 12x28x7 mm deep groove ball bearing is a single-row radial bearing optimized for compact industrial assemblies. Key dimensions: bore (d) 12 mm, outer diameter (D) 28 mm, width (B) 7 mm. The design supports both radial loads and moderate axial loads, offering high running accuracy and reliability. Typical basic dynamic load rating is 5 600 N, basic static load rating 2 370 N, grease-lubricated speed limit approx. 28 000 rpm, oil-bath speed up to 32 000 rpm.
The bearing’s construction includes hardened steel rings and balls, a steel cage, and standard internal clearance suited for many industrial setups. Its “open type” (unsealed) version allows for flexible lubrication—while shielded/sealed variants may be available for more demanding environments.
In short, this bearing is engineered for minimal friction, stable rotation and maximum service life in demanding industrial conditions.

Industrial applications and business benefits

This bearing is ideal for use in industrial systems where durability, precision and space efficiency are required. Typical applications include electric motors, gearboxes, compact drive units, bearing housings, conveyor units and automation modules.
For B2B customers, the benefits are clear:

• High durability - The NSK reputation combined with robust design ensures fewer maintenance interventions and longer operation cycles.

• Ready integration into bearing units or bearing housings - With standard dimensions 12x28x7 mm, the bearing seamlessly fits into many industry-standard units, enabling quick replacements or retrofits.

• Optimised for compact installations - Narrow width and modest diameter make it perfect for tight assemblies without compromising on load-carrying capacity or precision.

• Industrial reliability - Suitable for continuous duty, offering stable performance in applications requiring high running accuracy and long service life.
  Selecting the NSK 16001 bearing supports operational continuity, simplifies procurement and reduces downtime for industrial customers looking for reliable bearing solutions.

Installation guidance and operational tips

When installing the NSK 16001 bearing in a bearing housing or unit, ensure correct seat on the shaft and in the housing to avoid misalignment or undue load in the axial direction. While the bearing supports axial loads, its primary strength is radial load performance in compact assemblies.
Environmental factors such as temperature, lubrication condition and contamination should be considered: for dusty, moist or highly humid conditions, consider a sealed or shielded variant. For lubrication, follow manufacturer’s guidelines: correct grease type and amount, and consider re-lubrication intervals in heavy-duty industrial service. Proper mounting and alignment will maximise the bearing’s service life and deliver the “wysoka trwałość” (high durability) your application demands.

FAQ

Q1: Is the NSK 16001 bearing suitable for bearing housing units (bearing units)?
A1: Yes. With its standard dimensions of 12x28x7 mm and robust deep groove design, this bearing is fully compatible with many bearing housings and units designed for industrial drive systems.

Q2: What does “deep groove ball bearing” imply for this product?
A2: A deep groove ball bearing allows for straightforward accommodation of radial loads and moderate axial loads in both directions. The geometry ensures lower friction, higher speed potential and reliability in industrial applications.

Q3: What makes this bearing suitable for “aplikacje przemysłowe” (industrial applications)?
A3: Its precision manufacturing, high load ratings, space-efficient form factor and ability to integrate into bearing housings make it well suited for demanding industrial environments where reliability and high durability are key.

Q4: Are there sealed or shielded variants of this bearing for harsher conditions?
A4: Yes. While the basic NSK 16001 may be open type, variants with metal shields (e.g., “ZZ”) or rubber seals (e.g., “2RS”) exist for increased protection against dust, contamination and moisture. Choose the variant matching your service conditions.

Q5: What are the lead-times and availability for this bearing?
A5: The bearing is stocked and ready for dispatch from our B2B warehouse, supporting fast turnaround and minimal production interruption.
