Six-inch radial reference with a seven-inch outer envelope

The KD060CP0 thin section bearing reference combines a six-inch bore, seven-inch outside diameter and half-inch width with open Type C radial contact. These convert to 152.4 × 177.8 × 12.7 mm. Use LYDL-D060 Type C and the full reference when requesting a drawing, quotation or review of a proposed radial-support system.

KD060CP0 thin section bearing dimensions

Parameter	Symbol	in	mm
Bore diameter	d	6	152.4
Outside diameter	D	7	177.8
Axial width	B	0.5	12.7
Radial section	(D − d) / 2	0.5	12.7

Keep rating conventions consistent during selection

The reference table contains Kaydon’s radial dynamic figure, a separately labeled ISO radial comparison figure and the static radial capacity. Choosing the largest number without retaining its definition can distort a life or capacity comparison. Document the convention used alongside the calculation inputs. The KD section adds half an inch to the radius between shaft and housing surfaces. Its seven-inch outside diameter is therefore one inch greater than its six-inch bore. The 12.7 mm axial width remains distinct from the total diameter difference and the assembled support depth.

Kaydon KD060CP0 reference load ratings

Reference rating	lbf	kN (converted)
Dynamic radial — Kaydon method	2,160	9.608
Dynamic radial — ISO comparison	4,059	18.055
Static radial	4,450	19.795

Source: Kaydon official model table, referenced below. These are Kaydon reference capacities, not verified LYDL supply ratings. Dynamic values use a one-million-revolution L10 basis; the ISO column is a comparison rating calculated per ISO 281:1990. Static values assume rigid shaft and housing support. Ratings are not additive or simultaneous permissible loads. Conversion: 1 lbf = 0.0044482216152605 kN; displayed kN values are rounded.

Brand designations for this nominal envelope

Brand	Designation	Scope
LYDL	LYDL-D060 Type C	Supply inquiry identity
Kaydon	KD060CP0	Open radial-contact reference
Silverthin	SD060CP0	Same nominal size and contact family
INA / Schaeffler	CSCD060	CSC catalog radial-contact reference

KD060CP0, SD060CP0 and CSCD060 identify brand-specific references for the 6 × 7 × 0.5 in radial-contact envelope. INA / Schaeffler uses CSC for the Conrad radial family; its following letter identifies the section. Compare the complete specification before interchange. Brand names remain with their owners; this LYDL offer does not imply brand authorization. Catalog references do not guarantee current availability.

Coordinating a radial-support package across engineering and purchasing

A larger shaft-support project often passes through layout, analysis, purchasing and receiving teams. Use a shared dimension order and full bearing identity so each team evaluates the same item. A capacity figure copied without brand, units and rating basis can become misleading by the time it reaches the purchase specification. The application must still define the radial, axial and moment components, support spacing and motion profile. This coordination example is not evidence of a specific installation. A clear inquiry can begin with model, quantity and destination while the detailed configuration review proceeds.

Related sizes and installation envelopes

Reference	Bore d (in)	Outside D (in)	Width B (in)
KD060CP0	6	7	0.5
KB060CP0	6	6.625	0.3125
KC060CP0	6	6.75	0.375
KD050CP0	5	6	0.5

KB060CP0 and KC060CP0 retain the six-inch bore with smaller sections. KD050CP0 retains the half-inch section around a smaller bore. The model comparison should carry the same units throughout so bore changes are not confused with section changes. Compare the installation dimensions of KB060CP0, KC060CP0, KD050CP0. Explore the open Type C size table and radial-contact bearing category. For another contact arrangement, see the KD060XP0 four-point contact reference.

A controlled drawing revision makes interchange review useful

When comparing brand references, list which interfaces are fixed and which may be redesigned. Check mounting shoulders, corner geometry, clearance, accuracy and lubrication against the proposed supply drawing. A nominally matching envelope is the beginning of the review, not its completion. At installation, retain the agreed drawing revision with the inspection record and document the final mounting condition. If the assembly does not run as expected, that record helps distinguish a specification mismatch from seating, support or drive-related effects.

Inspection, handling and packing

For delivery to a project assembly team, keep model, contact type and drawing revision together on the shipping identification. Separate the ring from large shafts or covers that could load it locally. Agree corrosion protection and unpacking requirements for the planned storage interval.

Questions about this model

Which dynamic radial figure should be entered in a life calculation?

Use the rating convention required by the selected manufacturer-approved calculation method. Kaydon radial and ISO radial figures are separately defined references; do not choose one merely because it is larger or mix conventions within the same comparison.

Is 25.4 mm the width of KD060CP0?

No. That is the outside-minus-bore diameter difference. The radial section on one side and the axial width are each 12.7 mm for this half-inch-section reference.

What should accompany a brand-interchange request?

Provide the full existing designation, drawing, fixed interfaces and operating requirements. Compare contact geometry, shoulders, corner clearance, accuracy, internal setting and lubricant in addition to the nominal envelope.

Can purchasing request a quote before the engineering review is complete?

Yes. Start with LYDL-D060 Type C, KD060CP0 reference, quantity, application and destination. Identify any unresolved configuration requirements so the commercial discussion and drawing review can proceed with clear assumptions.

Why keep the drawing revision with the receipt record?

It connects the inspected item to the agreed configuration. That traceability helps resolve differences in dimensions, internal setting or mounting requirements if a later assembly review finds an unexpected result.
