6203 C TVH C3 FAG Ball Bearing 17x40x12 mm

Industrial Applications

TVH Polyamide Cage and C3 Clearance

Bearing Unit for Bearing Housings

Main Description

The 6203 C TVH C3 FAG ball bearing 17x40x12 mm is a precision single-row deep groove ball bearing designed for demanding industrial applications where durability, speed stability, and thermal reliability are essential. This bearing unit is engineered to operate smoothly under continuous duty, making it suitable for modern industrial machinery.

The TVH polyamide cage reduces mass and friction, contributing to quieter operation and lower heat generation at higher rotational speeds. Combined with the C3 internal clearance, the bearing safely compensates for thermal expansion, ensuring stable performance in applications exposed to elevated temperatures or variable operating conditions. This design significantly increases service life and operational reliability.

With standardized dimensions of 17x40x12 mm, the 6203 C TVH C3 bearing integrates easily into common bearing housings and mechanical assemblies. It is widely used in electric motors, pumps, fans, gearboxes, conveyors, and other industrial drive systems. The deep groove geometry allows the bearing to carry radial loads as well as moderate axial loads in both directions, providing flexibility across a wide range of industrial uses.

Manufactured to strict quality standards, this ball bearing delivers consistent geometry, low vibration, and predictable performance. As a professional bearing unit from FAG, it is a trusted choice for B2B customers who require long service life, reduced maintenance, and reliable operation in industrial environments.
