NMT 625-RZTN9/CNHVT105B Precision Deep Groove Ball Bearing – Japan NMT Compact Low-Friction High-Speed Precision Bearing Solution
Product Overview
The NMT 625-RZTN9/CNHVT105B is a single-row sealed precision deep groove ball bearing. With a 5 mm bore, 16 mm outer diameter, and 5 mm width, this bearing combines a single-side non-contact rubber seal (RZ) with a glass fibre reinforced polyamide 66 (PA66) cage (TN9) , integrating compact dimensions, low friction characteristics, high-speed capability, and precision rotational accuracy into a single package, accommodating radial and bidirectional axial loads simultaneously.
The bearing offers a basic dynamic load rating of 1.14 kN (256 lbf) , a static load rating of 0.38 kN (85 lbf) , and a fatigue load limit of 0.016 kN . It achieves a reference speed of 95,000 r/min and a limiting speed of 60,000 r/min . The bearing weighs only 0.005 kg (5 g) with an operating temperature range of -30°C to 120°C . The tolerance class is P6 (ISO Class 6) , and the radial clearance is CNH – the upper half of the normal clearance range.
The RZ seal design is a key feature of this bearing – the single-side non-contact rubber seal effectively prevents contaminant ingress while adding no extra resistance or heat generation. The TN9 glass fibre reinforced PA66 cage provides excellent guidance accuracy and dimensional stability at high speeds. The CNH radial clearance (upper half of normal clearance) accommodates moderate loads and medium-to-high speed conditions. The compact 5×16×5 mm dimensions make it ideal for space-constrained applications. The synergy of low friction, high speed, compact design, and precision rotational accuracy makes this bearing the ideal precision bearing solution for miniature high-speed equipment.

Core Performance Advantages
1. Single-Side Non-Contact Rubber Seal (RZ) – Low Friction, Effective Protection
The bearing features a single-side non-contact rubber seal (RZ) that effectively prevents dust and other contaminants from entering the bearing interior, while the non-contact design avoids friction between the seal and the inner ring – adding no extra resistance or heat generation. The bearing comes pre-filled with high-quality grease (VT105) from the factory – ready to install out of the box, no additional lubrication required.
2. Glass Fibre Reinforced PA66 Cage (TN9) – Speed and Durability Combined
The glass fibre reinforced polyamide 66 (PA66) injection moulded snap cage (TN9) features ball-centred guidance. This material offers an excellent strength-to-weight ratio and dimensional stability, providing superior guidance accuracy and low friction at high speeds, contributing to reduced centrifugal forces, friction, and heat generation – a key factor in achieving the 95,000 r/min reference speed.
3. CNH Radial Clearance – Optimised Internal Clearance
This bearing features CNH radial clearance – the upper half of the normal clearance range. This optimised internal clearance design accommodates moderate loads and medium-to-high speed conditions, ensuring stable temperature performance and running accuracy at high speeds.
4. Compact Precision Miniaturisation – 5×16×5 mm
With compact dimensions – 5 mm bore, 16 mm outer diameter, and 5 mm width – this bearing can be easily integrated into space-constrained precision equipment. Weighing only 5 g. The tolerance class is P6 (ISO Class 6) , with bore and OD tolerances of -0.008mm to 0, meeting the rotational accuracy requirements of precision equipment.
5. Deep Groove Design – Bidirectional Load Capacity, Excellent Versatility
Deep groove ball bearings feature a simple structure, wide versatility, and low friction. This bearing can accommodate radial loads and bidirectional axial loads simultaneously, providing excellent load capacity in miniaturised designs. With a dynamic load rating of 1.14 kN (256 lbf) and static load rating of 0.38 kN (85 lbf) , it meets the load requirements of most miniature applications.
6. Wide Operating Temperature Range
This bearing operates within a temperature range of -30°C to 120°C, capable of adapting to various demanding environments from cold storage to high-temperature processing.
7. RoHS and REACH Compliant
This bearing is compliant with RoHS and REACH environmental standards, ensuring safe use even in regions with strict environmental regulations.
