OVERVIEW

Precision Replacement Component: Walter 48Q269 Ball Bearing

The Walter 48Q269 is a high-performance 6000-2RS ball bearing designed to serve as a critical replacement component for Walter Surface Technologies power tools. In the demanding world of industrial metalworking, the internal components of grinders, sanders, and polishers are subjected to immense stress, heat, and contamination. This genuine Walter spare part is engineered to restore your equipment to its original factory specifications, ensuring smooth operation and longevity. The "6000" designation refers to the bearing's specific series and physical dimensions, a standard size widely utilized in compact, high-speed rotational applications within power tools.

Advanced Sealing Technology

The defining feature of this bearing is the "2RS" suffix, which stands for "Two Rubber Seals." Unlike open bearings or metal-shielded variants (ZZ), the 2RS design incorporates synthetic rubber seals on both sides of the race. These seals make positive contact with the inner ring, creating a tight barrier that serves a dual purpose. First, it effectively retains the factory-applied lubricant within the bearing, ensuring consistent friction reduction over the component's life. Second, and perhaps most importantly for industrial environments, it prevents the ingress of fine contaminants. In a workshop filled with grinding dust, metal shavings, and airborne particulates, a standard bearing can fail prematurely due to grit entering the raceway. The 48Q269's sealed design mitigates this risk, making it the ideal choice for tools used in dirty or dusty conditions.

Maintenance and Performance

Using genuine Walter replacement parts like the 48Q269 ensures that your tools maintain the balance and precision they were built with. A worn bearing can cause excessive vibration, noise, and heat buildup, which not only affects the quality of your work but can also lead to catastrophic failure of other tool components, such as the armature or gear set. This bearing is pre-lubricated with high-grade grease, meaning it requires no maintenance or additional lubrication upon installation. Its deep groove geometry allows it to handle both radial and axial loads efficiently, providing the stability needed for precision grinding and finishing tasks.

Installation and Compatibility

While specifically cataloged as a spare for Walter equipment, the 6000-2RS is a standardized industrial size. However, sourcing the part directly from the Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM) guarantees that the steel quality, tolerance classes, and grease specifications meet the rigorous standards set by Walter Surface Technologies. Whether you are performing routine maintenance or an emergency repair, installing the 48Q269 is a straightforward step toward extending the operational life of your valuable power tools.

FAQ

The '2RS' designation stands for '2 Rubber Seals'. This indicates that the bearing has a synthetic rubber seal on both sides to prevent dust ingress and retain lubricant.

Yes, the Walter 48Q269 6000-2RS bearing comes pre-packed with high-quality grease and is sealed for life, requiring no further lubrication.

While it is sold as a genuine Walter replacement part, the 6000-2RS is a standard bearing size. If your tool requires a 6000-2RS bearing, it will physically fit, but we recommend verifying compatibility with your specific equipment manual.

Common signs include excessive noise (grinding or squealing), increased vibration, the tool feeling hot to the touch near the bearing housing, or the spindle wobbling.

Sealed bearings (2RS) offer better protection against fine dust and moisture compared to metal-shielded (ZZ) bearings, making them superior for grinding and outdoor environments.

Yes, this is a genuine Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM) part from Walter Surface Technologies.

It is constructed from high-grade hardened bearing steel to withstand high speeds and loads.

Typically, repair parts like bearings do not come with specific instructions. You should refer to the service manual of the tool you are repairing.
