What is the equivalent of a 6012JEM bearing?

The 6012JEM is a 60×95×18mm deep groove ball bearing with verified equivalents across multiple brands: FAG 6012-C3, NSK 6012 C3E, NTN 6012 C3, Timken 6012 C3. All equivalents share the same bore, outer diameter, width, and load ratings.

What are the dimensions of a 6012JEM bearing?

The 6012JEM bearing has a bore diameter of 60mm, outer diameter of 95mm, and width of 18mm. It has a dynamic load rating of 30.7 kN, static load rating of 23.2 kN, and weighs 395g. Maximum speed with grease lubrication is 9,500 rpm.

Can I replace a SKF 6012JEM with a FAG equivalent?

Yes. SKF and FAG bearings with the same ISO designation are dimensionally interchangeable. The 6012JEM (60×95×18mm) can be replaced with the equivalent FAG part number as long as the seal type (open) and clearance class (C3) match. Always verify load ratings and speed limits for your specific application.

Technical Details & Applications

Specification variations and common equipment types.

Internal Clearance

Greater Than Normal (C3)

Increased radial internal clearance. Required when bearings operate at elevated temperatures or with tight shaft fits.

Temperature70-150°C operating temperature

Seal Type

Open (No Seal)

No seals or shields. Allows external lubrication and cooling. Lowest friction, highest speed capability.

Avoid forDirty, dusty, or wet environments. Applications without planned lubrication maintenance.

Examples

Machine tool spindles
Gearboxes with oil bath lubrication
