Good to know

C — Dynamic load rating

The load under which a group of identical bearings will reach a basic rating life of L₁₀ = 1 000 000 rev (i.e. 90 % of bearings survive). Used in the ISO 281 life formula:

L₁₀ = (C / P)ᵖ    [10⁶ rev]

p = 3 (ball), p = 10/3 (roller)

C₀ — Static load rating

The load that causes a permanent deformation of 0.0001 × d at the most loaded contact. Used when the bearing is stationary, oscillating slowly, or subject to shock loads:

s₀ = C₀ / P₀    [–]

Recommended s₀ ≥ 1 (normal), ≥ 2 (shock)

Series overview

  • 6000 — extra-light, low load, high speed
  • 6200 — light, general purpose (most common)
  • 6300 — medium, higher radial loads
  • NU 22xx — medium cylindrical roller, moderate load
  • NU 23xx — heavy cylindrical roller, high radial load

Designation system

  • 62xx — last two digits = bore code (×5 mm for ≥ 04)
  • 6200–6203 — bore: 10, 12, 15, 17 mm (special)
  • NU — cylindrical roller, inner ring free to move axially
  • Suffix -2RS — rubber seals; -ZZ — metal shields
  • Values are typical (SKF/FAG); verify with manufacturer datasheet
