Product Description
The 6208 deep groove ball bearing is a single-row radial ball bearing designed for applications requiring reliable radial load support and the ability to accommodate axial loads in both directions. With standard boundary dimensions of 40 mm bore, 80 mm outside diameter, and 18 mm width, the 6208 bearing is used in a wide range of industrial machinery and rotating equipment.
Its deep raceway design supports smooth rotation and low-friction operation when properly selected, lubricated, and installed. The 6208 bearing is suitable for applications such as electric motors, pumps, fans, gearboxes, and general industrial equipment.
For replacement and OEM purchasing, confirming the complete bearing designation, internal clearance, sealing arrangement, and operating requirements helps ensure compatibility with the intended application.

6208 Bearing Features
-
Standard dimensions: The 40 × 80 × 18 mm size supports replacement evaluation for equipment designed around the 6208 bearing envelope.
-
Radial and axial load support: Designed primarily for radial loads and capable of accommodating axial loads in both directions within applicable operating limits.
-
Multiple sealing configurations: Open, metal-shielded, and rubber-sealed versions may be available to meet different lubrication and contamination-control requirements.
-
Flexible operating conditions: Bearing performance depends on the selected clearance, lubrication, fit, load, speed, and operating temperature.
-
Replacement and OEM sourcing: Suitable for model-based sourcing, maintenance requirements, and bulk purchasing, subject to confirmed product availability.
6208 Open, ZZ, and 2RS Bearings
Selecting the correct configuration is important when replacing an existing 6208 bearing.
-
6208 Open: An unsealed design suitable for applications with appropriate external protection or lubrication arrangements.
-
6208ZZ: A bearing fitted with metal shields on both sides to help retain lubricant and limit the entry of larger contaminants.
-
6208-2RS: A bearing fitted with contact or rubber seals on both sides, depending on the manufacturer's designation, to provide enhanced contamination protection.
The exact suffix convention varies by manufacturer. Confirm the sealing design and lubricant specification before substituting one version for another.
6208 Bearing Applications
The 6208 deep groove ball bearing can be used in equipment such as:
-
Electric motors and generators
-
Industrial pumps and ventilation fans
-
Gearboxes and transmission systems
-
Conveyors and material handling equipment
-
Agricultural machinery
-
General industrial rotating assemblies
The suitability of a 6208 bearing depends on the actual radial and axial loads, operating speed, lubrication method, contamination exposure, and mounting conditions.
6208 Bearing Replacement and OEM Supply
For bearing distributors, industrial equipment manufacturers, importers, and maintenance suppliers, selecting a replacement 6208 bearing requires more than matching the nominal dimensions.
We can evaluate sourcing requirements based on the original bearing number, sealing arrangement, internal clearance, technical drawing, and application details. OEM and bulk supply options depend on the required configuration and confirmed manufacturing capabilities.
