SKF 6206 ZZ Deep Groove Ball Bearing 30x62x16 mm Metal Shields

Construction and Design

The SKF 6206 ZZ is a single-row deep groove ball bearing engineered for high-speed operation and reliable load handling in industrial environments. It features precision-ground raceways and a robust steel cage ensuring stable ball guidance under dynamic conditions.

This model is equipped with dual metal shields (ZZ), which protect the internal components from solid contaminants while maintaining low friction and high rotational efficiency.

Industrial Applications

SKF 6206 ZZ ball bearing is widely used across multiple industries including electric motors, industrial pumps, gearboxes, agricultural machinery, and automation systems.

Its 30 mm bore size makes it particularly suitable for medium-duty shaft applications where higher load capacity is required compared to smaller models such as 6204 or 6205.
