Decoding SKF W 6009-2Z
- W 60Series
- Stainless steel deep groove ball bearings, W 60 series. Series differ in outside diameter and width even when the bore is the same.
- 09Bore
- Bore 45 mm (09 × 5).
- 2ZSuffix
- SKF suffix: identifies the variant, such as seals or shields, cage, internal clearance or other features.
W 6009 is the standard ISO basic designation, which sets the bearing type, series and bore.
Description
SKF W 6009-2Z measures 45 mm across the bore and 75 mm across the outside diameter; its width is 16 mm (45 x 75 x 16 mm).

For equipment that sees moisture, chemicals or regular washdowns, SKF W series deep groove ball bearings use stainless steel construction to resist corrosion. The single-row ball design handles moderate radial and axial loads, making these bearings a fit for food processing, medical devices, precision instruments and machinery in aggressive environments.
Reading the part number helps you specify the right variant. The W prefix identifies stainless steel construction. The series number that follows sets the size and load capacity, so W 608-2Z belongs to the 608 series with a thin section and reduced outside diameter, while W 619/3-2Z and W 619/4-2Z belong to the 619 series with very small diameters common in precision instruments. The -2Z suffix means two metal shields, one per side, that keep contaminants out and lubricant in. Where tighter sealing is needed, -2RS denotes elastomer seals.
These bearings appear wherever corrosion is a recurring problem. Food plants use them in conveyors, mixers and packaging equipment that is washed daily. Medical applications include infusion pumps, centrifuges and diagnostic equipment. You will also find them in chemical industry machinery, irrigation systems, marine equipment and laboratory setups, where hygiene and resistance to cleaning agents matter.
Selection depends on load type, rotation speed and the operating environment. If liquids or dust are present directly, choose the -2RS sealed variant rather than -2Z shielded. Factory lubrication covers most applications; if relubrication is required, confirm the bearing has a lubrication groove. During mounting, align shaft and housing correctly to prevent extra loads, use suitable tools and avoid striking the rings. Excessive interference can damage seals and shorten service life.
When replacing a bearing, note that each manufacturer uses its own nomenclature. A stainless bearing from another brand may carry a similar code but is not always interchangeable in tolerances or load capacity. SKF's W series is known for its stainless steel quality and specific suffixes. The safest approach is to compare critical dimensions and service conditions.

Frequently asked questions
- SKF W 6009-2Z bearing: what are its dimensions?
- SKF W 6009-2Z measures 45 mm across the bore and 75 mm across the outside diameter; its width is 16 mm (45 x 75 x 16 mm). Those are the boundary dimensions standardized in ISO 15 for basic designation W 6009.
- What does the -2Z suffix mean on an SKF W bearing?
- The -2Z suffix indicates two metal protective shields, one on each side. These shields keep dust and particles out and retain the lubricant. They suit applications without direct liquid contact.
- How does an SKF W bearing differ from a standard one?
- The W series is made from stainless steel, giving it greater corrosion resistance than standard chrome steel bearings. This makes it suitable for humid environments, frequent washdowns or chemical exposure.
- Can I replace a stainless bearing from another brand with an SKF W one?
- Generally yes, but verify dimensions and load conditions. Manufacturers may use different tolerances and capacities. Consult us with the original part number to confirm compatibility.
