Deep Groove Ball Bearings FAG 6003 -2Z

The FAG 6003-2z deep-groove ball bearing, with covers on both sides, offers protection against dirt particles and has an outside diameter of 35 mm and a width of 10 mm.

The 6003-2z deep groove ball bearing is a single-row rolling bearing from FAG, manufactured from standard rolling bearing steel. This design primarily accommodates radial loads and guides shafts with a cylindrical fit with precision. The double-sided shields ensure that the grease filling remains inside the bearing, whilst preventing solid particles from entering the raceway. Thanks to its compact dimensions – with an outer diameter of 35 mm and a width of 10 mm – the component is suitable for space-saving designs in both repair and series production.

What is the 6003-2z deep groove ball bearing suitable for?

The bearing is designed for rotating shafts and axles subjected primarily to radial loads and low axial forces in both directions. Thanks to the guided sheet steel cage and the standard radial clearance, the unit runs smoothly under standard operating conditions. Specialists use this component equally for upcoming repairs and for new designs with limited installation space.

What are the advantages of the 6003-2z’s double-sided seals?

The cover plates seal off the interior of the rolling elements on both sides without contact, which minimises additional frictional heat and keeps out coarse contaminants. Re-lubrication is not required during normal operation, as the roller bearing is filled with grease. The permissible temperature range is from –30 to +120 °C. During assembly, it is recommended to press the bearing in using a suitable ring to avoid impacts on the sheet metal discs.
