Extra Small Ball Bearings and Miniature Ball Bearings Metric Series

**NSK Precision Motion Solutions: Extra Small & Miniature Metric Ball Bearings for Demanding Applications**

NSK’s deep groove ball bearings in extra-small and miniature metric series represent the pinnacle of precision engineering, delivering unmatched performance in compact, high-speed, and high-load applications. Designed for industries where space constraints and reliability are critical, these bearings combine advanced materials, ultra-precise manufacturing tolerances, and innovative sealing technologies to ensure smooth operation, extended service life, and reduced maintenance requirements.

### **Technical Features & Performance Advantages**
NSK’s miniature and extra-small deep groove ball bearings (metric series) are engineered to meet the rigorous demands of modern industrial, automotive, and precision equipment applications. Key features include:

– **High-Precision Manufacturing**: Manufactured to ISO and JIS standards, these bearings achieve tight tolerances (ABEC 1 to ABEC 7/P0 to P6) for applications requiring minimal vibration and noise.
– **Optimized Internal Geometry**: Advanced raceway and ball contact designs reduce friction, improving efficiency and heat dissipation in high-speed operations.
– **Robust Material Selection**: High-grade chrome steel (SUJ2 equivalent) and corrosion-resistant stainless steel options ensure durability in harsh environments.
– **Specialized Lubrication & Sealing**: Options include grease-lubricated, oil-lubricated, or shielded/sealed configurations (ZZ, 2RS) to prevent contamination while maintaining low torque.
– **Lightweight & Compact Designs**: With bore diameters as small as 1 mm and outer diameters under 10 mm, these bearings are ideal for space-constrained applications without sacrificing load capacity.

### **Typical Applications**
NSK’s miniature and extra-small deep groove ball bearings are widely used in industries where precision, reliability, and compactness are essential:

– **Industrial Machinery**: High-speed spindles, miniature gearboxes, robotics, and automation systems benefit from their low friction and high rotational accuracy.
– **Automotive Systems**: Used in electric vehicle (EV) components, sensors, actuators, and fuel injection systems where compact, high-performance bearings are critical.
– **Medical & Dental Equipment**: Essential for precision handpieces, imaging devices, and surgical robots requiring smooth, contamination-free operation.
– **Consumer Electronics & Optics**: Found in drones, miniature motors, cameras, and optical positioning systems where silent, vibration-free performance is key.
