684-ZZ Micro Deep Groove Ball Bearing Shielded For 3D Printing & Office Automation | 4×9×4 mm

The 684-ZZ is a Premium Miniature Single Row Deep Groove Ball Bearing engineered for reliable, high-speed rotation in space-constrained mechanical environments. Characterized by its double-shielded design (ZZ), this bearing is expertly sealed with twin metallic shields that lock in essential lubrication while repelling airborne dust and fine particulates. Featuring a versatile 4mm bore and a compact 9mm outer profile, the 684-ZZ is the definitive solution for micro-motors, precision instruments, and automated assemblies demanding superior operational stability without adding excess bulk.



684-ZZ Deep Groove Ball Bearing 4×9×4 mm | ISO 68 Series | Double Shielded (ZZ)

Constructed to standard ISO 68 Series miniature dimensions, this highly adaptable micro-bearing effortlessly supports moderate radial loads and light axial thrusts. Thanks to its non-contact metallic shields, the 684-ZZ functions entirely maintenance-free, offering an exceptionally low friction coefficient. This optimized internal geometry permits continuous high-speed operation, reaching up to 48,000 r/min (Grease), making it an indispensable rotational component for advanced lightweight machinery that requires quiet, heat-resistant, and enduring performance.

Key Performance Features

01. Exceptional High-Speed Stability

Precision-machined to strict tolerance standards (Available in standard P0 up to P5 grades), the 684-ZZ utilizes high-grade steel balls and highly polished raceways. This advanced micro-engineering ensures negligible vibration and extremely low acoustic noise, allowing continuous, stable rotation at maximum operational velocities.

02. Twin Metallic Shields (ZZ) for Longevity

Fitted with two pressed steel shields, this bearing provides an excellent barrier against solid contaminants without inducing drag. Because the shields do not make physical contact with the inner ring, the bearing experiences zero frictional torque loss, translating to improved energy efficiency and prolonged equipment life.

03. Robust Micro-Scale Construction

Even with its highly compact 68 Series dimensions (4×9×4 mm), the 684-ZZ delivers a solid dynamic load rating of 0.64 kN. Forged from high-carbon GCr15 chromium steel, both the inner/outer rings and rolling elements provide exceptional surface hardness, effectively resisting fatigue and wear during continuous operation.

Design & Configuration

The 684-ZZ comes standard as a pre-lubricated, double-shielded unit, delivering immediate, plug-and-play reliability for high-speed, dust-sensitive environments. For specialized machinery necessitating absolute protection against moisture or liquid splashes, rubber-sealed variants (684-2RS) are available upon request. Conversely, for ultra-low torque or oil-bath configurations, unshielded open versions (684) can be supplied.

"Implement the 684-ZZ Shielded Miniature Bearing for compact mechanical designs where high-speed efficiency, minimal weight, and uncompromising durability are critical."
