Decoding FAG 6204-C-2Z
- 62Series
- Deep groove ball bearings, 62 series. Series differ in outside diameter and width even when the bore is the same.
- 04Bore
- Bore 20 mm (04 × 5).
- C-2ZSuffix
- FAG suffix: identifies the variant, such as seals or shields, cage, internal clearance or other features.
6204 is the standard ISO basic designation, which sets the bearing type, series and bore.
Description
FAG 6204-C-2Z measures 20 mm across the bore and 47 mm across the outside diameter; its width is 14 mm (20 x 47 x 14 mm).

The FAG deep groove ball bearing in the -C-2Z series is a single-row design with two metal shields and C internal clearance. It handles moderate radial and axial loads in high-speed equipment where a light barrier is enough to keep grease in and dust out. Its straightforward mounting and low maintenance make it a common choice across many industries.
The part number tells you what you are getting. The base number defines the size: in the 60 series, for instance, 6000-C-2Z, 6001-C-2Z and 6002-C-2Z share the same bore but differ in outer diameter and width. The letter C stands for the special radial internal clearance, and the 2Z suffix means two metal protective shields, one on each side. Always order using the complete code.
You will find these bearings in electric motors, fans, centrifugal pumps, light reducers, machine tools, and packaging or conveying equipment. They also appear in food lines, blowers, screw compressors and transmission systems where a compact, low-friction unit is needed. The 2Z shield suits dusty or fine-chip environments without the extra friction of a contact seal.
When selecting, consider the radial and axial load, the rotation speed and the type of contaminant. The C clearance is a good fit when interference fits or thermal gradients exist between shaft and housing. The bearing comes pre-lubricated and normally needs no relubrication. During mounting, check shaft alignment with the housing and avoid striking the shields; an off-center seat will shorten service life.
Bearings from different brands with the same dimensions and design are interchangeable, provided bore, outer diameter, width and sealing type match. Variations typically lie in internal clearance, steel quality and lubricant. If you swap one code for another, compare the suffix letters before installation. We can help you verify with the code or model you have.

Frequently asked questions
- FAG 6204-C-2Z bearing: what are its dimensions?
- FAG 6204-C-2Z measures 20 mm across the bore and 47 mm across the outside diameter; its width is 14 mm (20 x 47 x 14 mm). Those are the boundary dimensions standardized in ISO 15 for basic designation 6204.
- What does the 2Z suffix mean on a FAG bearing?
- The 2Z suffix indicates two metal protective shields, one on each side. These shields retain grease and slow the ingress of coarse dust, but they do not seal against liquids. It is a light solution with less friction than a contact seal.
- How do I request a quote for a deep groove ball bearing?
- Send us the complete code on WhatsApp, for example 6004-C-2Z, or provide the shaft and housing dimensions. With that information we identify the design and reply promptly. If you do not have the code, send a photo of the part and its dimensions.
- Can a bearing from one brand be replaced by another?
- Yes, if the main dimensions and design type match. A deep groove ball bearing with the same bore, outer diameter and width can be mounted in the same housing. Check that the clearance and sealing suffixes are equivalent before installing it.
