What is the equivalent of a 6208LLU bearing?

The 6208LLU is a 40×80×18mm deep groove ball bearing with verified equivalents across multiple brands: SKF 6208-2RS1, FAG 6208-2RSR, NTN 6208LLU, Timken 6208-2RS. All equivalents share the same bore, outer diameter, width, and load ratings.

What are the dimensions of a 6208LLU bearing?

The 6208LLU bearing has a bore diameter of 40mm, outer diameter of 80mm, and width of 18mm. It has a dynamic load rating of 32.5 kN, static load rating of 19 kN, and weighs 352g. Maximum speed with grease lubrication is 11,000 rpm.

Can I replace a NSK 6208LLU with a SKF equivalent?

Yes. NSK and SKF bearings with the same ISO designation are dimensionally interchangeable. The 6208LLU (40×80×18mm) can be replaced with the equivalent SKF part number as long as the seal type (2RS) and clearance class (CN) match. Always verify load ratings and speed limits for your specific application.
