6206 NR NSK Ball Bearing 30x62x16 with Snap Ring

Main Description

The 6206 NR NSK ball bearing 30x62x16 is a single-row deep groove ball bearing with a groove and retaining ring, designed for precise axial positioning and reliable operation in industrial applications.

Within the deep groove ball bearings 62xx series, the 6206 NR NSK model represents a balanced solution between speed capability and load capacity. Its integrated snap ring system allows quick axial fixation in the housing without additional locking components, making it highly efficient in both assembly and maintenance processes. This feature is particularly valuable in applications where reducing installation time and ensuring consistent positioning are critical.

Deep groove ball bearings in the 30x62x16 size range are widely used across industries due to their versatility, compact design, and ability to operate under varying load conditions while maintaining high rotational speeds.

Construction and Design

The 6206 NR NSK bearing is engineered with a robust internal geometry to support both radial and moderate axial loads.

Key design features:

• single-row deep groove configuration
• precision-machined groove in the outer ring
• retaining ring included for axial locking
• high-grade bearing steel for long service life
• steel cage for stable and consistent performance

This construction ensures low friction, reduced heat generation, and reliable performance in continuous-duty environments.

Industrial Applications
