Common Applications

TIMKEN 6213 bearings are widely used in applications where high performance, durability, and efficiency are critical. Common applications include:

• Electric Motors: Known for quiet operation and suitability for high-speed applications.
• Material Handling Equipment: Conveyor systems and other machinery requiring reliable rotary motion.
• Automotive Industry: Various components where robust and precise bearings are essential.
• General Industrial Machinery: Pumps, fans, gearboxes, and other rotating equipment.

Variations Available

The TIMKEN 6213 series comes with various suffixes indicating different sealing, shielding, and clearance options, tailoring the bearing to specific environmental and operational demands:

• TIMKEN 6213: Open type, standard (normal) clearance. Suitable for applications where external lubrication and protection are provided.
• TIMKEN 6213-2RS: Features two rubber seals on both sides. These contact seals offer superior lubricant retention and excellent protection against contaminants like dust and moisture, making them ideal for dirty or wet environments.
• TIMKEN 6213-Z (or 6213-RS): Features one metal shield (Z) or one rubber seal (RS) on one side. Shields offer some protection against larger contaminants, while seals provide better sealing.
• TIMKEN 6213-ZZ (or 6213-2Z): Equipped with two non-contact metal shields on both sides. These shields provide lubricant retention and protection from larger debris while allowing for higher speed capabilities compared to sealed versions due to less friction.
• TIMKEN 6213 C3: Indicates a radial internal clearance greater than normal. This increased clearance is often preferred in applications where there might be thermal expansion, misalignment, or heavy interference fits, preventing premature bearing failure.
• TIMKEN 6213 ZZC3: Combines double metal shields (ZZ) with a C3 internal clearance, offering good protection and higher speed capabilities along with accommodating thermal expansion or misalignment.
• TIMKEN 6213 2RSC3: Features two rubber seals (2RS) and a C3 internal clearance, providing excellent sealing against contaminants and accommodating thermal expansion, making it suitable for demanding, high-contamination environments.
