Bearing 6201

The 6201 bearing is a single-row ball bearing measuring 12 × 32 × 10 mm (inner diameter 12 mm, outer diameter 32 mm, width 10 mm). We stock 25 variants, 15 of which are in stock for dispatch within 24 hours. Prices start at 19 Kč and vary depending on the manufacturer and variant.

Dimensions and interchangeability

The designation 6201 is an international standard (ISO 15), so a 6201 bearing from any manufacturer always has the same dimensions of 12 × 32 × 10 mm and is mechanically interchangeable. They differ only in seal type, clearance, precision and service life. When replacing a worn part, you can therefore choose a different brand to the one used in the original machine.

The variants we stock

• 6201 2RS – double-sided rubber seals – for dusty and damp environments
• 6201 2RSH – double-sided rubber seals (SKF designation)
• 6201 LLU – double-sided rubber seal (NTN designation)
• 6201 2Z – double-sided metal shield – lower friction, higher speeds
• 6201 ZZ – double-sided sheet metal cover (NTN designation)
• 6201 C3 – increased radial clearance – for higher temperatures and interference fits
• 6201 NR – groove including supplied retaining ring

Without a suffix, this is an open bearing without a seal — the most economical option for clean and permanently lubricated mountings.

Manufacturers

For the 6201 designation, we offer the brands SKF, FAG, NTN, NSK, ZVL and IBB. ZVL or IBB are sufficient for standard operation; for demanding and high-speed applications, we recommend SKF, FAG or NTN.

How to choose

The dimensions are identical for all 6201 bearings, so the choice depends on the environment: 2RS sealed bearings for dusty and damp conditions; 2Z shielded bearings for clean and high-speed applications; and C3 clearance for heating or press-fitting.
