6002 Deep Groove Ball Bearing 15x32x9mm

The 6002 bearing is the 15mm-bore deep groove ball bearing in the ISO 600 series: 32mm OD, 9mm width, 5.58 kN dynamic load at 24,000 RPM. Weighing 30 grams with a radial cross-section of 8.5mm, it provides the highest load capacity in the extra-light 60xx family while fitting into enclosures where a 6202 bearing (15x35x11mm) is too large. Open, ZZ, and 2RS configurations cover clean high-speed, dust-protected, and washdown environments.

Key Specifications

Sealing: Open, ZZ (metal shields), or 2RS (rubber seals). ZZ reaches 24,000 RPM with non-contact labyrinth protection. 2RS rated to 18,000 RPM with positive contact sealing against moisture and fine dust.

Speed and Load: 28,000 RPM (open) with 5.58 kN dynamic and 2.85 kN static load. ZZ configuration rated to 24,000 RPM with grease. 2RS configuration rated to 18,000 RPM due to seal friction.

Radial Fit: 15mm bore, 32mm OD, 9mm width. 8.5mm radial cross-section; 30 grams. 9 balls of 4.762mm diameter, pressed steel two-piece riveted cage. The 15mm bore is the largest in the extra-light 60xx series.

Temperature Range: -20C to 120C with standard polyurea grease. 150C peak available with high-temperature fluorinated lubricant.

Precision: Standard ABEC-1. ABEC-3 available for tighter bore tolerance (+0/-0.008mm) and reduced radial runout.

Shielding and Lubrication

The 6002 bearing ships in three sealing configurations. Open (no suffix) suits oil-bath and oil-mist lubricated housings where speed is the priority; it reaches 28,000 RPM with oil and 24,000 RPM with grease. ZZ bearing uses double SPCC steel shields pressed into the outer ring. These non-contact labyrinths block coarse debris with zero seal drag. 2RS bearing uses NBR rubber contact seals riding on the inner ring shoulder for positive protection against moisture, fine dust, and light liquid splash at 18,000 RPM.

At 9mm width and 32mm OD, the 6002 bearing has a radial cross-section of 8.5mm. The seals do not compromise the load path; the full 5.58 kN dynamic rating applies regardless of seal type. Factory fill is lithium soap grease. Polyurea, fluorinated high-temperature, and food-grade NSF H1 greases are available for volume orders.


Performance

The 6002 bearing carries 5.58 kN dynamic and 2.85 kN static load at 24,000 RPM in ZZ bearing configuration. Part of the deep groove ball bearing family, it is the largest in the 60xx extra-light series. GCr15 chrome steel rings hardened to 60-64 HRC. Nine balls distribute the contact load across more rolling elements than the 6001 bearing, contributing to the highest dynamic rating in the extra-light family.

Compared to the 6202 bearing (15x35x11mm, 7.65 kN dynamic), the 6002 bearing gives up 2.07 kN of capacity but saves 3mm in OD and 2mm in width, weighing 30g versus 45g. Compared to the 6001 bearing (12x28x8mm, 5.10 kN), the 6002 bearing adds 0.48 kN capacity and 3mm bore diameter. L10 life at rated load is approximately 5.5 hours; at half load, L10 exceeds 8,000 hours with clean lubrication and proper mounting.


OEM and Customization

Through custom bearing manufacturing, Yuanhe produces the 6002 bearing to your specifications. Common OEM requests include C2 or C3 clearance grades, polyurea low-noise grease for electric motors, fluorinated grease for operation above 100C, NSF H1 food-grade grease, black oxide or zinc-nickel surface treatment, FKM seals, 440C stainless steel rings and balls, and private labeling with laser marking. Standard lead time is 7 to 15 days with batch-level reports.


Applications

Small electric motors, HVAC fans, and condenser units
Power tools, circular saws, and angle grinders
Bicycle hubs, bottom brackets, and pedal assemblies
Conveyor rollers, pumps, and textile machinery

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the difference between 6002 bearing and 6202 bearing? +
Both have a 15mm bore. The 6002 bearing has a 32mm OD, 9mm width, and 5.58 kN dynamic load. The 6202 bearing steps up to 35mm OD, 11mm width, and 7.65 kN dynamic. The 6002 bearing saves 3mm in OD and 2mm in width, weighing 30g versus 45g. Choose 6002 bearing when space and weight are constrained; choose 6202 bearing when maximum load capacity takes priority.
How does the 6002 bearing compare to the 6001 bearing? +
The 6002 bearing has a 15mm bore versus 12mm for the 6001 bearing. OD increases from 28mm to 32mm. Width goes from 8mm to 9mm. Dynamic load rises from 5.10 kN to 5.58 kN. Ball count increases from 8 to 9. If your shaft is 12mm, use 6001 bearing. If your shaft is 15mm, 6002 bearing is the largest extra-light series option.
Can the 6002 bearing handle radial and axial loads simultaneously? +
Yes. As a deep groove ball bearing, the 6002 bearing handles combined loading with axial capacity at roughly 25 to 30 percent of the radial dynamic rating. For combined loads, calculate the equivalent dynamic load per ISO 281. The deep groove geometry supports axial thrust in both directions.
What grease options are available for the 6002 2RS bearing? +
Standard fill is polyurea-thickened mineral grease, 100 cSt at 40C, rated -20C to 120C. Custom options include filtered low-noise polyurea for motor applications, fluorinated high-temperature grease to 150C, and food-grade NSF H1 grease.
