Reliable rotation with the Skf 6218-2Z ball bearing

Practical benefits

Effective shielding against dirt: The dual metal shields protect the internal rolling elements from contaminants, ensuring you achieve smooth and consistent operation.
Built for high speeds: Engineered with durable steel, it reliably handles radial and axial loads while maintaining stability at high rotational speeds.
Low maintenance and durability: Pre-lubricated internals stay sealed inside, so you reduce machine downtime and eliminate frequent re-greasing tasks.

In a nutshell

The right choise for

With the Skf 6218-2Z deep groove ball bearing, you ensure smooth and reliable shaft rotation in demanding industrial machinery. Featuring a 90 mm bore, 160 mm outer diameter, and 30 mm width, this single row steel bearing reliably handles both radial and axial loads. The dual metal shields (2Z) keep factory lubrication safely inside while protecting the internal elements against dirt and dust ingress. Because the non-contact shielding eliminates friction loss at higher rotational speeds, you achieve dependable, low-maintenance performance in heavy-duty electric motors, pumps, compressors, and gearboxes.

Product description

Single row deep groove ball bearings with seals or shields are particularly versatile, have low friction and are optimized for low noise and low vibration, which enables high rotational speeds. They accommodate radial and axial loads in both directions, are easy to mount, and require less maintenance than many other bearing types. The integral sealing can significantly prolong bearing service life because it keeps lubricant in the bearings and contaminants out.

Integral sealing prolongs bearing service life
Simple, versatile and robust design
Low friction and high-speed capability
Accommodate radial and axial loads in both directions
Require little maintenance
