6001-2RS Deep Groove Ball Bearing – OEM Replacement

Overview

The 6001-2RS is a compact deep groove ball bearing used in small motors, tools, and lightweight rotating assemblies. It’s a common OEM replacement size when you need a standard 12 mm bore bearing with sealed protection and consistent performance.

Applications

Typical applications include small electric motors, power tools, hobby/automation equipment, small pumps, and idler pulleys. The 2RS seals help keep grease in and minimize ingress of dust and fine debris.

Compatible Machines

You’ll find 6001 bearings in compact fan motors, small gear drives, laboratory equipment, and general light-duty mechanisms. For higher RPM, confirm the grease specification and consider shielded versions if contamination is low.

Technical Specifications

  • Bore (ID): 12 mm
  • Outside Diameter (OD): 28 mm
  • Width: 8 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 include 6001, 6001-2RS, 6001-RS, 6001-ZZ, and equivalent listings by major manufacturers. If your old bearing includes a precision grade or clearance suffix, match it for noise and life requirements.

Replacement Information

Verify size (12×28×8 mm) and check shaft and housing conditions. Use a proper press or bearing driver to avoid brinelling. If the bearing is near heat sources, confirm internal clearance and choose grease rated for your temperature range.

Why Source With Us

We can source OEM replacement 6001 bearings quickly and help you choose the right sealing and clearance for your equipment. Submit an RFQ with your bearing code and application details for fast turnaround.

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.
