Unlocking Peak Performance: The HICERA 6200 PEEK Deep Groove Ball Bearing

In the world of precision motion, selecting the right bearing is critical. For applications demanding chemical resistance, lightweight design, and reliable operation in harsh environments, traditional steel bearings often fall short. Enter the HICERA 6200 series PEEK deep groove ball bearing with ceramic balls—a engineered polymer solution redefining durability and efficiency.

This single-row, open bearing (no seal) is designed for versatility and high performance. Its core construction features a bearing cage and rings made from PEEK (Polyether Ether Ketone), a high-performance thermoplastic renowned for its exceptional properties.

Why Choose PEEK Plastic for Bearings?

PEEK stands out as a superior material for challenging operational conditions:

• Exceptional Chemical & Corrosion Resistance: Impervious to a wide range of aggressive chemicals, solvents, and steam. Ideal for chemical processing, marine, and food & beverage applications where corrosion is a primary concern.
• Lightweight: Significantly lighter than steel, reducing rotational inertia and enabling higher speeds and energy savings.
• Self-Lubricating & Low Friction: Offers inherent lubricity, reducing the need for external lubricants and minimizing wear.
• High-Temperature Performance: Maintains mechanical integrity at continuous service temperatures up to 250°C (480°F).
• Excellent Wear Resistance: Provides a long service life even under dry running or poor lubrication conditions.

The Advantage of Ceramic Balls

Pairing the PEEK structure with ceramic balls (typically silicon nitride or zirconia) creates a synergistic effect:

• Enhanced Rigidity and Speed: Ceramic balls are harder, smoother, and lighter than steel balls, reducing centrifugal force and allowing for higher RPMs.
• Superior Insulation: They are electrically non-conductive, preventing electrical arcing (pitting) – a common failure mode in electrically charged environments.
• Further Corrosion Immunity: The ceramic balls are completely inert, adding another layer of protection against corrosive media.
• Reduced Maintenance: The combination of PEEK and ceramic minimizes friction and wear, extending maintenance intervals.
