What is the equivalent of a 6002 bearing?

The 6002 is a 15×32×9mm deep groove ball bearing with verified equivalents across multiple brands: NSK 6002, NTN 6002, SKF 6002, Timken 6002. All equivalents share the same bore, outer diameter, width, and load ratings.

What are the dimensions of a 6002 bearing?

The 6002 bearing has a bore diameter of 15mm, outer diameter of 32mm, and width of 9mm. It has a dynamic load rating of 5.85 kN, static load rating of 2.85 kN, and weighs 30g. Maximum speed with grease lubrication is 32,000 rpm.

Can I replace a FAG 6002 with a NSK equivalent?

Yes. FAG and NSK bearings with the same ISO designation are dimensionally interchangeable. The 6002 (15×32×9mm) can be replaced with the equivalent NSK part number as long as the seal type (open) and clearance class (CN) match. Always verify load ratings and speed limits for your specific application.
