Decoding SKF W 61800-2Z/P6
- W 618Series
- Stainless steel deep groove ball bearings, W 618 series. Series differ in outside diameter and width even when the bore is the same.
- 00Bore
- Bore 10 mm: by standard, 00 designates 10 mm.
- 2Z/P6Suffix
- SKF suffix: identifies the variant, such as seals or shields, cage, internal clearance or other features.
W 61800 is the standard ISO basic designation, which sets the bearing type, series and bore.
Description
SKF W 61800-2Z/P6 measures 10 mm across the bore and 19 mm across the outside diameter; its width is 5 mm (10 x 19 x 5 mm).

The SKF W 61800-2Z/P6 is a stainless steel deep groove ball bearing built to handle radial and axial loads in environments where corrosion is a concern. Its stainless steel construction suits humid areas, frequent washdowns, and exposure to moderate chemical agents. You will find it in industrial, food, and pharmaceutical equipment where cleanliness and oxidation resistance matter.
The part number breaks down into three key elements. The W tells you the bearing is made of stainless steel, which provides corrosion resistance. The 2Z means two metal shields, one on each side, that block contaminants without creating a full seal. The P6 after the slash indicates the dimensional and running accuracy class—class 6 under international standards. The W 61800-2Z/P6 is a thin-section example that combines all these features.
These bearings are common in food and beverage plants, dairy operations, and meat processing lines where water and chemical washing are routine. They also appear in pharmaceutical packaging and filling machines, medical equipment, pumps, fans, conveyors, and machinery in marine or coastal settings where salt air speeds up oxidation in standard bearings.
When choosing a stainless steel bearing from this series, consider load type, rotation speed, and the surrounding environment. The 2Z shields block solid particles but do not hold liquid lubricant or seal against pressurized liquids. If splashes or high humidity are present, you may need extra sealing. Use a lubricant compatible with stainless steel and the contaminants in your process. During installation, align the shaft and housing properly to avoid added stress and extend bearing service life.
Stainless steel deep groove ball bearings follow international standards for dimensions and tolerances, so products from different brands are interchangeable when the designation and precision class match. Still, check lubrication and sealing details from each manufacturer, as they can differ. When replacing a bearing, confirm the new unit meets the load and speed requirements of the original equipment.

Frequently asked questions
- SKF W 61800-2Z/P6 bearing: what are its dimensions?
- SKF W 61800-2Z/P6 measures 10 mm across the bore and 19 mm across the outside diameter; its width is 5 mm (10 x 19 x 5 mm). Those are the boundary dimensions standardized in ISO 15 for basic designation W 61800.
- What does the 2Z suffix mean on a SKF bearing?
- The 2Z suffix means the bearing has two metal shield plates, one on each side. These plates keep out dust and large particles but do not seal against liquids. They work well when you need mechanical protection without hermetic contact.
- Is this bearing suitable for humid environments?
- Yes. Because it is made of stainless steel, it resists corrosion better than carbon steel bearings. It handles humid conditions, frequent washdowns, and splashes. For immersion or direct liquid contact, consider options with additional sealing.
- How do I request a quote for a stainless steel SKF bearing?
- Send the complete bearing part number or the main dimensions—inner diameter, outer diameter, and width—by WhatsApp or email. With that information, we will quote the right option and help you choose the best alternative for your application.
