Description
Overview:
The Open Deep Groove Ball Bearing - SKF-6202 is a single-row metric ball bearing designed for smooth, efficient rotation in a wide range of machinery. Manufactured by SKF (MPN: SKF 6202), it uses high-quality bearing steel with precision-ground raceways to minimise friction and wear. The open design keeps running resistance low and allows straightforward relubrication where required. Dimensions are 15 mm inside diameter (approx. 0.59 inch), 35 mm outside diameter (approx. 1.38 inches), and 11 mm width (approx. 0.43 inch), making it a common choice for 15 mm shafts. Suitable for electric motors, pumps, conveyors, lawn and garden machines, and compact construction equipment, it supports predominantly radial loads with the capacity to handle moderate axial loads in both directions.
Key Features:
- Manufactured by SKF for consistent precision and reliability
- Open deep groove design for low friction, cooling airflow, and easy lubrication access
- Supports radial loads and moderate axial loads in both directions for versatile use
- Precision-ground raceways for smooth running and extended service life
- Standard 6202 size (15 x 35 x 11 mm) for straightforward like-for-like replacement
- Robust bearing steel construction resists fatigue under continuous service
- Symmetrical design simplifies fitting in either orientation
- Suitable for many electric motor and machinery housings using a 15 mm shaft
Typical Applications:
Commonly used in electric motors, fans, pumps, and small gearboxes, as well as conveyor rollers and idler pulleys. Widely found in garden equipment such as lawn mowers and scarifiers, and in light construction machinery including compactors, generators, and saws. Ideal wherever smooth, reliable rotational support is required and external sealing or regular lubrication is available.
