When equipment designers face limited installation space, excessive weight, and unstable rotation performance, choosing the right bearing becomes critical. Thin section bearing manufacturer XCCZC Bearing provides compact and precision-engineered solutions such as the 6701ZZ thin section deep groove ball bearing, designed for applications where size, accuracy, and durability directly affect system performance.
The 6701ZZ bearing features a 12×18×4mm ultra-thin structure, chrome steel construction, and double metal shields (ZZ). It is widely used in robotics, medical devices, stepper motors, precision instruments, and compact automation systems that require reliable rotational support in restricted spaces.
Shenzhen Xinchangsheng Bearing Co., Ltd. (XCCZC Bearing) was founded in 2002 in Shenzhen, China. With more than 20 years of bearing manufacturing experience, the company specializes in precision bearings for automation, automotive, medical, and energy industries.
As a professional thin section bearing manufacturer, XCCZC Bearing operates a 5,000m² modern production facility with a monthly output of approximately 3 million bearings. The company has completed more than 1,000 global OEM projects and supplies customers across Europe, Southeast Asia, and the Americas.
XCCZC Bearing focuses on:
The 6701ZZ is designed for compact mechanical structures where standard bearings cannot provide sufficient space efficiency.

The ultra-thin cross-section allows engineers to reduce assembly size while maintaining smooth and stable rotation performance.
The biggest challenge in miniature equipment design is balancing performance with available space. The 6701ZZ solves this issue with its 4mm width and lightweight structure.
Benefits include:
The 6701ZZ thin section deep groove ball bearing uses precision-machined raceways and chrome steel components to achieve smooth rotation.
The bearing construction helps reduce:
For precision applications such as robotic joints, optical equipment, and medical devices, stable rotation directly improves product reliability.
XCCZC Bearing manufactures the 6701ZZ using high-carbon chrome steel (GCr15). The bearing rings and balls are hardened to approximately 58–62 HRC, improving wear resistance and rolling contact fatigue performance.
For environments requiring additional corrosion protection, stainless steel versions can also be customized according to project requirements.

The 6701ZZ bearing is suitable for industries requiring compact and accurate motion control.
Common applications include:
Choosing a suitable thin section bearing requires evaluating your operating conditions.
Follow these steps:
| Feature | 6701ZZ Thin Section Bearing | Standard Deep Groove Bearing |
|---|---|---|
| Structure | Ultra-thin cross-section | Standard width design |
| Width | 4mm | Usually thicker |
| Weight | Approx. 3g–5g | Higher weight |
| Best Application | Compact equipment | General industrial machinery |
| Main Advantage | Space saving and precision | General load capability |
The 6701ZZ is preferred when equipment designers need lightweight construction and accurate movement within limited installation space.
The 6701ZZ bearing is commonly used in robotics, micro motors, medical equipment, precision instruments, and compact automation systems where small dimensions and accurate rotation are required.
The 6701ZZ has a 12mm inner diameter, 18mm outer diameter, and 4mm width, making it an ultra-thin miniature deep groove ball bearing.
