How the 6200-ZZ-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 -ZZ denotes two non-contact metallic shields; they retain grease and block coarse debris 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 catalogue order number: 6200ZZ (suffix ZZ), two non-contact steel shields, mapped here from the industry-neutral -ZZ spelling.

Typical equipment & failure modes

Selection pitfalls — read before you substitute

• Interference on a 10 mm shaft plus running heat consumes radial clearance: where the shaft runs hot or the fit is tight, order 6200 with C3 clearance and re-check the residual value after mounting.
• At 10 mm bore the 62xx light series is the workhorse section; its 30×9 mm envelope is what most motor and gearbox seats are machined for, so any alternative section must be checked against both this OD and this width, not the bore alone.
• ZZ shields are non-contact: 6200-ZZ-NTN blocks chips and coarse dust but is not waterproof — do not install it expecting a pressure-wash seal, step up to 6200-2RS for that.
• Do not wash 6200-ZZ-NTN in solvent before mounting: the grease inside the shielded cavity is the service fill, and solvent creeping past the shield gap strips it out.
• A 10 mm bore listing showing the right d/D/B but no standard or precision-class reference may be a loose-tolerance import; measure bore/OD spread before fitting it to a machined shaft.
• The housing bore for the 30 mm OD should be round within IT7; an oval bore pinches the outer ring of 6200-ZZ-NTN and shows up later as two-point loaded raceway wear.
• NTN catalogues the shielded version as 6200ZZ — suffix ZZ, two non-contact steel shields. The industry-neutral page spelling is -ZZ; quote the NTN order number when buying through an NTN channel.
• 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 6200ZZ 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.
• Standard catalogue stock of 6200 is the general-purpose execution; for low-noise motor duty NTN offers low-torque seal and special-grease variants in this size class, which are separate order numbers.
• 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 6200 is listed.
