When equipment runs in washdown areas, humid rooms or around chemical agents, a standard bearing can fail early. The SKF WBB1-8706-2Z is a single-row deep groove ball bearing made of stainless steel and fitted with integral sealing. It handles radial and axial loads in both directions while keeping lubricant in and contaminants out, which suits machinery that must run with minimal maintenance.
Reading the code helps you confirm what you are ordering. The WBB prefix identifies a stainless steel bearing with integral sealing, 8706 points to the main dimensions, and the 2Z suffix means sheet metal shields are fitted on both sides. Always check the complete designation against the manufacturer's catalogue before you commit to a replacement.
Typical applications include food, pharmaceutical and chemical plants, plus packaging lines, conveyors and marine equipment. These are environments where frequent washdowns and moisture are normal. The stainless steel construction and the integral seals support corrosion resistance and protect the bearing from water and chemical exposure.
Selection should consider the radial and axial loads the bearing will carry and the rotation speed of the shaft. Because the sealing is built in, no extra seals are needed. During mounting, align shaft and housing carefully to avoid parasitic stresses. The factory grease fill covers most applications; if relubrication is required, choose a grease that suits the seal material and the operating conditions.
Stainless steel bearings with sealing from other manufacturers may perform in a similar way, so compare dimensions and tolerances before substituting one for another. SKF is one of the brands MR supplies. If you have the original code, send it over and we can help you identify a suitable equivalent.

Frequently asked questions
- What does the 2Z suffix mean on this bearing?
- The 2Z suffix indicates that the bearing is fitted with sheet metal shields on both sides. These shields help retain lubricant and limit the entry of contaminants, though they are not as tight as rubber seals.
- Can this bearing be used in humid environments?
- Yes. The stainless steel construction and integral sealing provide good resistance to corrosion and moisture, making it suitable for applications exposed to water or chemical agents, provided load and speed limits are respected.
- How do I check if this bearing replaces the one I have?
- Compare the inner diameter, outer diameter and width, and confirm the sealing type. If you are unsure, send us the original bearing code via WhatsApp or email and we will help you find the equivalent.
