6003 Bearing
Bore (d) 17 mm
Outside diameter (D) 35 mm
Width (B) 10 mm
Inches (bore × OD × width) 0.6693 × 1.3780 × 0.3937″
Deep-groove ball bearing, extra light (6000) series. Seal/shield suffixes (ZZ, 2RS, …) change the closures, never these dimensions — a 6003-ZZ and 6003-2RS are the same size.
What the number means
- 6 — deep-groove ball bearing
- 0 — dimension series (extra light (6000))
- 03 — bore code (03 → 17 mm)
