How the 6200-RSR-NTN model number is decoded

In the 6200-series (diameter series 2 of ISO 15) the last two digits encode the bore: 6200 carries bore code 10 = 10 mm. Outside diameter 30 mm and width 9 mm come from the ISO 15 boundary-dimensions general plan. Suffix -RSR denotes two low-friction non-contact elastomer seals; they keep coarse debris out with minimal drag but are not liquid-tight. For normal-load mounting with a rotating inner ring on a 10 mm shaft, typical catalogue practice is a j5 shaft seat with an H7 housing bore — verify against the actual load direction and magnitude. NTN's non-contact seal suffix is LLB/LLF (catalogue number 6200LLB), mapped here from the industry-neutral -RSR spelling; speed capability matches the open bearing but it is not liquid-tight.

Typical equipment & failure modes

Selection pitfalls — read before you substitute

• Temperature rise and interference fits consume internal clearance on this 10 mm bore: a CN bearing on a tight, hot shaft can lose all residual clearance — size 6200 with C3 for those conditions.
• The 62xx light series is the default general-purpose section at 10 mm bore; before upgrading to a 6310 for extra capacity, confirm the housing accepts a 30 mm OD and 9 mm width — it is not a drop-in swap.
• RSR low-friction seals on 6200-RSR-NTN run faster than contact-seal 6200-2RS but let fine dust and moisture past the non-contact lip; in dirty or wet duty specify 6200-2RS instead.
• The low-drag lip of 6200-RSR-NTN barely touches the inner ring; after long shelf storage the grease can separate, so rotate the rings by hand and confirm smooth, silent running before fitting.
• 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.
• Suffixes stack in a defined order — clearance follows the seal code, e.g. 6200-RSR-NTN-C3. No clearance suffix means normal CN clearance.
• NTN catalogues this low-friction non-contact seal as 6200LLB (suffix LLB), mapped here from the industry-neutral -RSR spelling. NTN rates its speed capability the same as the open bearing, but it is not liquid-tight — for wet or fine-dust duty step up to the LLU contact seal (industry-neutral -2RS).
• At 10 mm bore the 6200 sits in NTN's miniature range; ABEC-1/P0 runout is standard, and the pressed-steel cage is adequate up to the grease limiting speed — for higher accuracy (spindles, instruments) ask NTN for a P6 or P5 tolerance-class listing before relying on catalogue P0 figures.
• NTN rates 6200 at 21000 r/min grease limiting speed — this is a high-speed electric-motor range; keep the grease fill at 20–30% of the free bearing volume and avoid mixing grease thickener types if regreasing through the seal lip.
• NTN rates 6200 at 5.65 kN dynamic (C) and 2.39 kN static (C0), 0.18 kN fatigue load limit Cu; this light-to-medium rating suits fractional-horsepower drives and instruments — for conveying or gearbox duty with shock loads, verify the equivalent dynamic load stays well below C.
• At only 32 g, 6200 is a lightweight bearing that can be handled by hand; still, press it onto the shaft with a sleeve against the inner ring — never through the balls or outer ring.
• The 10×30×9 mm envelope of 6200 gives a D/d ratio of 3.00 and 10.0 mm radial section height — a heavy section built for high-load, lower-speed duty; specifying it in a high-rpm motor generates excess heat and shortens grease life, so prefer a 62/63-series there.
• The 5.65/2.39 kN load ratings, 0.18 kN fatigue load limit Cu NTN lists the grease limiting speed at 21000 r/min for this designation; oil-mist or jet lubrication raises the ceiling but requires a sealed-housing review. and 32 g mass here are NTN Ball and Roller Bearings CAT.No.2203-3/E figures for 6200LLB on the 10×30×9 mm ISO 15 envelope; internal geometry and ratings legitimately differ between brands, so re-verify before substituting another manufacturer's 6200 in a rated drive.
• NTN date-codes its packaging; rotate stock first-in-first-out, because the grease inside sealed units ages on the shelf — after three to five years of storage, check the grease condition before putting the bearing into service.
• 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.
