The 6003 ZZ MTM bearing (17 mm bore x 35 mm outer diameter x 10 mm width) is a deep groove ball bearing with double metal shields (ZZ) designed for universal use in industrial and mechanical applications. It is widely used in electric motors, fans, pumps, hand tools, gearboxes, and other precision assemblies that require low friction, long service life, and protection from dust or debris.
The metal shields on both sides ensure that the bearing retains grease while preventing solid contaminants from entering the raceways — extending operational life and reducing maintenance needs. Common search phrases include “6003 ZZ bearing”, “6003 ZZ MTM”, “6003 ZZ metal shield bearing”, “MTM bearing 17x35x10”, and “deep groove ball bearing 6003 ZZ”.
Double metal shields (ZZ) protect against dust and dirt, improving durability and reducing relubrication frequency.
Compact dimensions (17x35x10 mm) make it ideal for space-limited installations.
Low-friction operation ensures efficient performance and minimal heat buildup.
High-quality steel construction provides strength and fatigue resistance for demanding applications.
Universal design — suitable for both radial loads and moderate axial loads in either direction.
Factory pre-lubricated, maintenance-free under normal operating conditions.

Q: What does “ZZ” mean in the bearing code 6003 ZZ?
A: “ZZ” indicates metal shields on both sides of the bearing. These shields protect against dust and debris but are not completely waterproof.
Q: Is the 6003 ZZ bearing sealed or open?
A: It is shielded, not fully sealed. Unlike 2RS (rubber-sealed) bearings, ZZ shields provide partial protection while maintaining low friction and high rotational speed.
Q: Is it pre-lubricated?
A: Yes. MTM 6003 ZZ bearings come pre-greased from the factory and usually do not require relubrication in standard applications.
Q: Can I use 6003 ZZ instead of an open bearing?
A: Yes — it’s often a direct replacement where extra dust protection is desired, such as in electric motors or fans. However, in high-contamination or wet environments, sealed versions (2RS) may be preferable.
Q: What are common applications for 6003 ZZ MTM bearings?
A: Typical uses include small electric motors, household appliances, machine tools, automotive components, and industrial conveyors.
