6803 Bearing
Bore (d) 17 mm
Outside diameter (D) 26 mm
Width (B) 5 mm
Inches (bore × OD × width) 0.6693 × 1.0236 × 0.1969″
Deep-groove ball bearing, thin section (6800) series. Seal/shield suffixes (ZZ, 2RS, …) change the closures, never these dimensions — a 6803-ZZ and 6803-2RS are the same size.
What the number means
- 6 — deep-groove ball bearing
- 8 — dimension series (thin section (6800))
- 03 — bore code (03 → 17 mm)
