How the 6413-ZZ model number is decoded

In the 6400-series (ISO 15 diameter series 4) the last two digits encode the bore: 6413 carries bore code 13 = 65 mm. Outside diameter 160 mm and width 37 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 65 mm shaft, typical catalogue practice is a k5 shaft seat with an H7 housing bore — verify against the actual load direction and magnitude.

Typical equipment & failure modes

Common applications

  • centrifugal and positive-displacement pumps
  • gearboxes and speed reducers
  • conveyor drives
  • material-handling equipment

Known failure patterns

  • fine-particle abrasion when non-contact shields let dust past in dirty duty
  • grease aging in the shield-for-life cavity with no relubrication path
  • fretting corrosion on a loose shaft seat
  • cage damage from operation beyond the limiting speed

Selection pitfalls — read before you substitute

  • Temperature rise and interference fits consume internal clearance on this 65 mm bore: a CN bearing on a tight, hot shaft can lose all residual clearance — size 6413 with C3 for those conditions.
  • The 64xx heavy section at 65 mm bore (160 mm OD) is built for high-load, lower-speed duty; specifying it in a high-rpm motor gives excess heat and short grease life — use 62/63 there.
  • ZZ shields are non-contact: 6413-ZZ blocks chips and coarse dust but is not waterproof — do not install it expecting a pressure-wash seal, step up to 6413-2RS for that.
  • Shielded 6413-ZZ units are typically greased for life; prying the shields out for regreasing usually bends them and leaves a gap that throws grease in service.
  • Shaft and housing fillets must clear the bearing chamfer so the 37 mm-wide ring seats square; provide an undercut or withdrawal groove instead of relying on an oversized radius.

Frequently asked questions

What are the dimensions of a 6413-ZZ bearing?

A 6413-ZZ deep-groove ball bearing has a 65 mm bore, 160 mm outer diameter and 37 mm width (2.559 × 6.299 × 1.457 in), per ISO 15 boundary dimensions. It is fitted with two non-contact metallic shields. Geometry-based estimated mass is about 3169 g for a steel-cage unit; catalogue masses vary slightly with seal and cage design.

How does the 6413 bore code work?

The last two digits of 6413 are bore code 13, giving 13 × 5 = 65 mm bore. The 160 mm outside diameter and 37 mm width follow the ISO 15 diameter series, not the bore code alone.

What does the ZZ suffix on 6413-ZZ mean?

ZZ means two non-contact sheet-metal shields, one each side. They retain factory grease and block coarse particles with little friction, but do not seal against liquids, fine dust or pressure washing.

How does the 6400 compare with other series at the same 65 mm bore?

The '4' is the heavy diameter series: 160×37 mm, 47.5 mm radial section at 65 mm bore — the highest-capacity single-row 6xx option here, aimed at lower-speed, high-load shafts.

Are 6413 bearings from different brands interchangeable?

For boundary dimensions, yes: every brand's 6413 uses the same ISO 15 envelope (65×160×37 mm). Load ratings, limiting speeds, clearance, precision class and sealing design can differ, so verify those in the supplier catalogue when substituting. Seal suffixes also differ by brand (2RS, DDU, LLU and similar).
