2. Post code
If there are several post codes in the bearing code, these post codes are arranged in groups in the following order: (1) internal design, (2) external design, (3) cage,
(4) other features. (1) (2) (3) A half Chinese character space is left between the post code and the basic code in the group;
(2) The post code of the dust cover and the sealing ring in the group are exceptions, Put a hyphen "-" in front of the code; (4) Put a slash in front of the post code in the group. Slashes are also used to isolate the two
(4) post-codes in the following two cases:
a. When the first postcode ends with a number and the second postcode starts with a number. Example: 6205 / P53 / 223316.
B. The post code indicating the range of compression and / or moving clearance is followed by a post code indicating the type of grease. If the slash is omitted, it will cause confusion. Example: 6205-2Z / C2L / HT42 (= C2L + HT42).
(1) Internal design
A, B, C, D, E-When the normal internal structure changes, these post-codes and their combinations generally form part of the bearing series code.
They are usually used only during the transition period, and are omitted after the transition period .
However, when they represent an alternative structure, these postcodes become permanent. Usually their meaning is unique to a certain bearing type or bearing series. E.g:
Single row angular contact ball bearings
ACD-The contact angle is 25 degrees.
B——The contact angle is 40 degrees.
CC——The contact angle is 12 degrees.
CD-The contact angle is 15 degrees.
BE——BE type bearing with a contact angle of 40 degrees, the steel ball is enlarged, and the glass fiber reinforced nylon 6.6 cage is used.

E——There is a ball port on one side of the bearing, which can hold more steel balls, so it has higher radial and axial load carrying capacity.
Spherical roller bearing
CAC, ECAC, CA, ECA-these are designed for large-size bearings, the rollers are symmetrical. Both sides of the inner ring are provided with fixed ribs, and the inner ring is guided by the inner ring during the movement.
The cage is a solid brass or steel solid frame. CAC and ECAC bearing rollers and raceway surfaces are optimized to help guide the rollers and reduce friction. ECAC type has reinforced rollers to increase load capacity.
CC, C, EC-These bearing rollers are symmetrical, and the inner ring has no ribs. Each row of rollers has a stamped steel cage.
The retaining ring in motion is guided by the inner ring. EC bearings use reinforced rollers to increase load capacity.
