How the 6310-RSR model number is decoded

6310-RSR uses two non-contact elastomer lips with very low drag; coarse debris stays out, but the bearing is not liquid-tight. Within the medium 63xx section (diameter series 3 of ISO 15), multiplying bore code 10 by five gives the 50 mm bore; the 110 mm outside diameter and 27 mm width follow the same boundary-dimension plan. For a rotating inner ring on a 50 mm shaft under normal load, catalogue practice seats it on a k5 shaft fit with an H7 housing bore — confirm against the actual load direction and magnitude before committing. NSK's non-contact seal suffix is VV (catalogue number 6310VV), mapped here from the industry-neutral -RSR spelling; speed capability is close to the open bearing but VV is not liquid-tight.

Typical equipment & failure modes

Selection pitfalls — read before you substitute

• Temperature rise and interference fits consume internal clearance on this 50 mm bore: a CN bearing on a tight, hot shaft can lose all residual clearance — size 6310 with C3 for those conditions.
• The 63xx medium section at 50 mm bore gains dynamic rating through larger rolling elements on a 110 mm OD; the penalty is mass and a lower limiting speed than the 6210 — do not specify it for speed-critical shafts.
• The low-drag lip of 6310-RSR barely touches the inner ring; after long shelf storage the grease can separate, so rotate the rings by hand and confirm smooth, silent running before fitting.
• The non-contact lip of 6310-RSR does not retain a lifetime grease fill the way a contact seal does; confirm the regreasing interval for the 50 mm bore position before relying on it as sealed-for-life.
• A 50 mm bore listing showing the right d/D/B but no standard or precision-class reference may be a loose-tolerance import; measure bore/OD spread before fitting it to a machined shaft.
• Assign fits by which ring rotates: an interference shaft fit for a rotating inner ring; if the outer ring rotates instead, reverse the logic — a loose rotating ring creeps and frets its seat.
• NSK catalogues this low-friction non-contact seal as 6310VV (suffix VV), mapped here from the industry-neutral -RSR spelling. NSK rates its speed capability close to the open bearing, but VV is not liquid-tight — for wet or fine-dust duty step up to the DDU contact seal (industry-neutral -2RS).
• The 50 mm bore puts 6310 in NSK's general-purpose industrial range; the standard pressed-steel cage and CN clearance cover most electric-motor and pump duty. NSK's VV non-contact seal is the high-speed choice here — DDU contact seal costs roughly 30–40% of the open-bearing speed ceiling.
• NSK rates 6310 at 68 kN dynamic (C) and 38.5 kN static (C0); this upper-medium rating covers conveyor and gearbox drives, but at these loads the pressed-steel cage can be the limiting factor under shock — consider the machined brass cage (suffix M) for impact duty.
• At 1060 g (1.1 kg), 6310 needs mechanical handling for mounting; NSK recommends induction heating the inner ring (max 120 °C) rather than pressing cold, and a lifting eye if the housing is pre-assembled.
• The 50×110×27 mm envelope of 6310 gives a D/d ratio of 2.20 and 30.0 mm radial section height — a heavy NSK section built for high-load, lower-speed duty; specifying it in a high-rpm motor generates excess heat and shortens grease life, so prefer a 62/63-series there.
• The 68/38.5 kN load ratings, mass 1060 g here are NSK Rolling Bearings E1103 Part C catalogue figures for 6310VV on the 50×110×27 mm ISO 15 envelope; internal geometry and ratings legitimately differ between brands, so re-verify before substituting another manufacturer's 6310 in a rated drive. NSK does not tabulate reference or limiting speeds in the E1103 Part C dimension tables used for this page — consult NSK's separate speed-rating tables before high-speed service.
• NSK's VV non-contact seal keeps frictional torque close to the open 6310; in motor duty where heat build-up matters, VV is the usual compromise between debris protection and speed capability.
• NSK does not recommend washing new shielded or sealed bearings; the rust-preventive film on open units is compatible with standard lithium greases and needs no removal unless the application demands a special fill.
