Manufacturing Process

Each MPI 6201-ZZ-C3 bearing is manufactured using high-grade bearing steel through a multi-step precision process:

Cold Forging
Bearing rings are cold-formed to ensure strength and dimensional consistency.

Heat Treatment
Components are heat-treated to enhance hardness and fatigue resistance.

Grinding & Superfinishing
Inner and outer rings are ground to tight tolerances and finished for ultra-smooth raceways.

Assembly
Balls are inserted and spacers installed to maintain spacing and minimize friction.

Grease Filling & Shielding
High-performance grease is applied before dual ZZ shields are installed for contamination protection.

Inspection & Testing
Each unit undergoes dimensional checks and dynamic performance testing to ensure quality.

Whether you’re sourcing for service, stocking spares, or planning production — MPI provides dependable pulley solutions built to perform in the field.

Trusted by manufacturers and DIYers alike, the MPI 6201-ZZ-C3 bearing delivers reliable, high-speed performance at an excellent value.
