6205-2RS Deep Groove Ball Bearing – OEM Replacement

Overview

The 6205-2RS is one of the most popular bearing sizes in the world, used anywhere a 25 mm shaft needs reliable, low-friction support. As an OEM replacement deep groove ball bearing, it’s a practical choice for maintenance teams that want consistent performance and easy sourcing.

Applications

You’ll find the 6205 in conveyors, pumps, fans, electric motors, agricultural machinery, and compact gear drives. The 2RS seals are ideal for dusty plants, material handling, and general production environments where grease retention matters.

Compatible Machines

Common machine types include packaging conveyors, carton/labeling equipment, centrifugal pumps, blower housings, and belt-driven assemblies. If your machine runs continuously, specifying the correct internal clearance and grease grade can improve life.

Technical Specifications

  • Bore (ID): 25 mm
  • Outside Diameter (OD): 52 mm
  • Width: 15 mm
  • Sealing: 2RS rubber seals (double sealed)
  • Typical material: chrome steel (52100) or equivalent
  • Lubrication: pre-greased for general-purpose duty

Cross References

Cross references often include 6205, 6205-2RS, 6205-RS, 6205-ZZ, and equivalent numbers across major brands. If your old bearing shows “C3”, keep that clearance for higher temperature or interference-fit applications.

Replacement Information

Verify ID/OD/width and confirm the old bearing’s suffixes (seals, shields, clearance). Check the shaft for fretting and the housing for looseness. Use correct installation tools and avoid pressing through the rolling elements. Consider replacing both bearings on the shaft during planned downtime.

Why Source With Us

We can source OEM-equivalent or premium-grade 6205 bearings quickly, including sealed/shielded and clearance options. Submit an RFQ with quantity and application notes (speed, load, temperature) and we’ll recommend the best-fit replacement.

Quick FAQ

What does the suffix mean? Common suffixes include ZZ (metal shields) and 2RS (rubber seals). Seals help retain grease and exclude contamination.

How do I confirm fit? Match the bearing designation, bore size, OD, and width. If your old bearing has an extra internal clearance suffix (like C3), keep that specification.

Can I upgrade quality? Yes—use premium grades for higher speeds, higher temperatures, or continuous-duty service.

FAQ

You can identify a replacement industrial part by matching key specifications such as dimensions, mounting style, material, load capacity, voltage, speed rating, and application. Many industrial components can be sourced by size and performance specifications even if the original part number is unknown. Providing measurements, photos, or equipment model information can help ensure accurate identification and compatibility.

Yes. Many industrial components — including bearings, seals, belts, motors, and fasteners — can be identified using inside diameter, outside diameter, width, thread size, or mounting pattern. Matching exact dimensions is one of the most reliable methods for finding equivalent or replacement parts when a part number is missing or unreadable.

Machine model numbers can often be used to locate OEM parts diagrams, exploded views, and manufacturer replacement lists. These references help identify compatible components originally installed in the equipment. Matching parts by machine model ensures correct fit, performance, and operational reliability.

OEM part numbers can be cross referenced using manufacturer interchange guides, engineering specifications, or industrial databases. Matching dimensions, tolerances, materials, and performance ratings ensures the alternative component functions the same as the original.

To confirm interchangeability, compare critical specifications such as dimensions, mounting configuration, operating capacity, material composition, and tolerance class. If these parameters match, the components are typically interchangeable across manufacturers.

Installing an incompatible part can lead to premature wear, mechanical failure, reduced efficiency, overheating, vibration, or equipment damage. Always verify specifications and compatibility before installation to maintain performance and safety.

Metric and imperial components may appear similar but often differ slightly in size and tolerance. Even small measurement differences can affect fit and performance. Always verify exact measurements before substituting between measurement systems.

 

Tolerance ratings define the allowable variation in size, alignment, or performance. Tight tolerances improve precision, reduce vibration, and extend equipment lifespan.
