What is the equivalent of a 1216SF bearing?

The 1216SF is a 80×140×26mm self-aligning ball bearing with verified equivalents across multiple brands: NSK 6216ZZ, NTN 6216ZZ, SKF 6216-2Z, Timken 6216-ZZ. All equivalents share the same bore, outer diameter, width, and load ratings.

What are the dimensions of a 1216SF bearing?

The 1216SF bearing has a bore diameter of 80mm, outer diameter of 140mm, and width of 26mm. It has a dynamic load rating of 70.2 kN, static load rating of 49 kN, and weighs 990g. Maximum speed with grease lubrication is 5,600 rpm.

Can I replace a FAG 1216SF with a NSK equivalent?

Yes. FAG and NSK bearings with the same ISO designation are dimensionally interchangeable. The 1216SF (80×140×26mm) can be replaced with the equivalent NSK part number as long as the seal type (ZZ) and clearance class (CN) match. Always verify load ratings and speed limits for your specific application.
