Frequently Asked Questions

Everything you need to know.

What sealing options are available for the 6301 bearing?
The 6301 is available in Open, ZZ (metal shield, both sides), 2Z (single shield), 2RS (rubber contact seal, both sides), and 2RZ (low-friction non-contact seal). Selection depends on operating environment, speed, and contamination risk.
What is the typical lead time for an order?
Stocked items typically ship within 48 hours of order confirmation. For larger volumes or modified specifications, lead times generally start from 2 weeks. We will confirm exact timing on WhatsApp before order placement.
Can I receive samples before placing a bulk order?
