Cross references & equivalents
| Equivalent model | Brand | Match level | Note |
|---|---|---|---|
| 628-9-2RS | SKF | partial Main dimensions match; tolerances, seals or internal clearance differ. | Same 9×17×5 mm envelope, but the stainless and chrome-steel executions carry different catalogue ratings (0.761/0.335 kN vs 1.43/0.64 kN) — envelope match, not a load-rating equivalent; choose by corrosion versus load duty. |

How the W628-9-ZZ model number is decoded
The W prefix denotes SKF stainless steel deep-groove bearings (X108CrMo17 / AISI 440C class rings). In the 62800-series, the bore is written directly after the slash as 9 mm (bores below 10 mm use the slash spelling). Envelope 9×17×5 mm (0.354×0.669×0.197 in), C 0.761 kN, C0 0.335 kN, Pu 0.014 kN; limiting speed 43000 r/min and mass 4.2 g. SKF spells the double shield W 628/9-2Z (suffix 2Z); the shields are non-contact, retain grease and block coarse debris but are not liquid-tight. Stainless is chosen for corrosion and washdown duty, not for extra load — the same-envelope chrome-steel bearing rates higher.
Typical equipment & failure modes
Common applications
- bicycle and outdoor equipment
- appliances exposed to moisture
- food and beverage conveyors
- pharmaceutical and packaging machines
Known failure patterns
- seal and grease failure before the rings corrode in sustained washdown service
- surface staining and pitting when even the stainless steel is left unlubricated in salty or acidic duty
- fine-particle abrasion when non-contact shields let dust through in a dirty environment
- grease aging inside the shielded cavity with no relubrication path
Selection pitfalls — read before you substitute
- The stainless steel is martensitic and MAGNETIC; do not reject W628-9-ZZ over magnetism — only austenitic grades are non-magnetic, and those are too soft for bearing raceways.
- Stainless bearings carry lower load ratings than chrome steel of the same envelope: W628-9-ZZ is quoted at C 0.761 kN versus the 5 mm-wide 52100 version — do not swap on dimensions alone.
- Food, pharmaceutical and washdown positions need food-grade grease (e.g. NSF H1 registered) inside W628-9-ZZ; standard fill is industrial grease unless specified otherwise.
- Corrosion resistance depends on clean, undamaged surfaces: never weld near W628-9-ZZ or scratch the raceways during mounting, since the damaged spot starts corrosion.
- Catalogue ratings for W628-9-ZZ (C 0.761 kN, C0 0.335 kN) are SKF figures from PUB BU/P1 17000; geometry revisions can change ratings without changing the designation, so keep the catalogue edition with the specification.
- Assign interference to the rotating ring: on a conventional shaft-mounted 9 mm position the inner ring rotates, so use a k5/m6 shaft seat with an H7 housing — reverse the logic if the outer ring rotates.
Frequently asked questions
What are the dimensions of the stainless W628-9-ZZ?
SKF W 628/9-2Z measures 9×17×5 mm (0.354×0.669×0.197 in), about 4.2 g, C 0.761 kN.
What does the W in W 628/9-2Z mean?
W is the SKF prefix for stainless steel deep-groove bearings (rings in X108CrMo17 / AISI 440C class); the rest of the designation follows the normal series and bore rules.
What grease is supplied in W628-9-ZZ?
Sealed units are pre-greased for life; for food or pharmaceutical duty order (or re-grease before service) with an NSF H1 registered food-grade grease.
Are W stainless bearings waterproof?
No — the stainless rings resist moisture and weak chemicals far better than 52100 chrome steel, but salt spray, strong chlorides and unlubricated washdown duty can still corrode W628-9-ZZ; add seals and food-grade grease for wet positions.
