6200-ZZ Ball Bearing

The 6200-ZZ Ball Bearing is a compact deep groove ball bearing engineered for high-speed applications requiring low rolling resistance, quiet operation, and dependable mechanical efficiency in lightweight industrial equipment and electric motors.

Equipped with double metal shields (ZZ), this bearing helps protect against light particles while maintaining lower rolling resistance compared to rubber-sealed models, making it ideal for continuous high-RPM systems. Manufactured from chrome steel and supplied factory pre-lubricated, the bearing delivers stable performance and long operational durability.

Applications for the 6200-ZZ

The 6200-ZZ is widely used in compact industrial equipment and rotating systems, including:

• Small electric motors
• Industrial fans
• HVAC systems
• Power tools
• Automated machinery
• Compact agricultural equipment
• Light-duty pumps
• Compact conveyor systems

6200 series bearings are commonly selected for applications requiring balanced speed capability, load support, and compact mechanical design.

Features of the 6200-ZZ Ball Bearing
