How the 6084 model number is decoded
6084 is supplied open, without shields or seals, so the arrangement around it must supply and retain the lubricant. Within the extra-light 60xx section (diameter series 0 of ISO 15), multiplying bore code 84 by five gives the 420 mm bore; the 620 mm outside diameter and 90 mm width follow the same boundary-dimension plan. For a rotating inner ring on a 420 mm shaft under normal load, catalogue practice seats it on a m6 shaft fit with an H7 housing bore — confirm against the actual load direction and magnitude before committing. In the NTN catalogue this open execution carries the bare designation; protected variants are ordered separately with suffixes ZZ (shields), LLB/LLF (non-contact seals), LLH (low-torque contact seal) and LLU (contact seal).
Typical equipment & failure modes
Common applications
- medium and heavy industrial drives
- large gearboxes
- industrial fans and blowers
- hoists and winches
Known failure patterns
- contamination wear from dust and dirt ingress through the open arrangement
- lubricant starvation when no regreasing interval is maintained
- electrical pitting in VFD-driven motors without grounding protection
- raceway smearing under marginal lubrication at start-up
Selection pitfalls — read before you substitute
- Large bores like the 420 mm of 6084 demand clean, burr-free seats; one raised burr under a ring this size cocks the bearing and concentrates load at the raceway edge, cutting life drastically.
- The 60xx extra-light section at 420 mm bore uses a smaller 620 mm OD than a 6284; load ratings are lower, so do not replace a failed 62-series bearing with a 60-series without re-rating the load.
- The open 6084 has no lubricant retention: grease escapes and contaminants migrate straight into the 420×620×90 mm raceway, so specify a sealed arrangement for dusty or washdown duty.
- Open bearings tolerate the highest speeds in the 6000-series but need a defined regreasing interval; run-to-failure lubrication is the dominant cause of early failure in open 6084 units.
- Assign fits by which ring rotates: an interference shaft fit for a rotating inner ring; if the outer ring rotates instead, reverse the logic — a loose rotating ring creeps and frets its seat.
- Deep-groove ball bearings tolerate only minutes of misalignment; if the 620 mm housing cannot be aligned, switch to a self-aligning type rather than shimming 6084.
- The open 6084 has no integral sealing; in the NTN 2203 catalogue the protected variants carry suffixes ZZ (non-contact steel shields), LLB/LLF (non-contact rubber seals), LLU (contact rubber seals) and LLH (a low-torque contact seal with higher speed capability than LLU). A JR or JRX suffix (printed for some thin-section sizes) denotes a pressed-steel cage, not a seal.
- The 420 mm bore places 6084 in NTN's upper maximum-size range; at this diameter the bearing mass is substantial and mounting requires induction heating of the inner ring (max 120 °C) with a mechanical puller. NTN supplies a machined brass cage (suffix M) and expects oil lubrication with a defined relubrication interval.
- NTN lists the grease limiting speed at only 880 r/min for 6084; this is a very large or heavy-section size where centrifugal force and cage inertia cap the speed — for higher shaft speeds either step to a smaller bearing on the same bore or consult NTN for an oil-lubricated, machined-cage variant.
- At 590 kN dynamic load rating (C) and 895 kN static (C0), 28.3 kN fatigue load limit Cu, 6084 is a very-heavy-load bearing for large industrial gearboxes and steel-mill equipment; NTN supplies a machined brass cage (suffix M) and expects an application review, because catalogue L10 life alone does not capture the shock and misalignment loads at this rating.
- At 91100 g (91.1 kg), 6084 is an extremely heavy bearing at the top of the single-row deep-groove range; NTN mandates induction heating (max 120 °C), a dedicated lifting fixture, and a machined brass cage (suffix M). Consult NTN engineering for the mounting and handling procedure before installation.
- The 420×620×90 mm envelope of 6084 gives a D/d ratio of 1.48 and 100.0 mm radial section height — this thin section saves space but is sensitive to misalignment and shock; confirm the housing stays round within IT7 and the shaft does not deflect past the raceway contact angle under load.
- The 590/895 kN load ratings, 28.3 kN fatigue load limit Cu NTN lists the grease limiting speed at 880 r/min for this designation; oil-mist or jet lubrication raises the ceiling but requires a sealed-housing review. and 91100 g mass here are NTN Ball and Roller Bearings CAT.No.2203-3/E figures for 6084 on the 420×620×90 mm ISO 15 envelope; internal geometry and ratings legitimately differ between brands, so re-verify before substituting another manufacturer's 6084 in a rated drive.
- NTN's pressed-steel cage (no cage suffix) is the quiet standard for this size; for sustained running close to the limiting speed or for heavy shock duty, ask the NTN channel whether a machined-cage execution of 6084 is listed.
- Factory-fill grease in NTN sealed units is a general-duty lithium-soap grease; food-grade, low-temperature and high-temperature fills are request options at order time, because LLU/LLB units are not meant to be opened and re-greased in the field.
Frequently asked questions
What are the dimensions of a 6084 bearing?
A 6084 deep-groove ball bearing has a 420 mm bore, 620 mm outer diameter and 90 mm width (16.535 × 24.409 × 3.543 in), per ISO 15 boundary dimensions. It is an open bearing with no seals or shields.
What does no suffix on 6084 mean?
A bare 6084 designation means open: no shields or seals, normal CN radial clearance and P0 normal tolerance unless further suffixes are ordered. The application must supply and retain the lubrication.
How does the 6000 compare with other series at the same 420 mm bore?
The second digit is the diameter series: 60 is the smallest standard section (620×90 mm, 100.0 mm radial section) at 420 mm bore — below 62/63/64 in load capacity, for light loads in compact spaces.
What is the NTN order number for an open 6084?
NTN lists the open 6084 under the bare designation 6084; protected versions use suffixes ZZ (shields), LLB/LLF (non-contact seals), LLH (low-torque contact seal) and LLU (contact seal) on the same 420 mm bore envelope.
What cage does NTN fit in 6084?
Standard is a pressed-steel cage with no suffix; larger sizes or shock-loaded duty can be supplied with a machined brass cage (suffix M) as a separate order number. The catalogue figures quoted here are for the pressed-steel execution.
