Interchange notes

For 6003, verify the complete 17×35×10 mm boundary dimensions. A 17 mm bore match does not establish interchangeability unless the 35 mm OD and 10 mm width also match.

For 6003, contact-seal suffixes in the linked catalog set are SKF 2RSH, NSK DDU, FAG/INA 2RSR, NTN LLU, KOYO/Timken 2RS and NACHI 2NSE. Shield suffixes are brand-specific: 2Z, ZZ, 2ZR or ZE.

Manufacturer checks before substitution

Confirm load rating, speed limit, internal clearance, precision class, lubrication and application suitability in the official manufacturer catalog for the exact brand and suffix. This page does not supply those values or make an application recommendation. Review the interchange rules before selecting a substitute.

FAQ

What are d, D and B for a 6003 bearing?

For 6003, d is the 17 mm bore, D is the 35 mm outside diameter and B is the 10 mm width.

What is the difference between 6003-2RSH and 6003-DDU?

2RSH is the SKF contact-seal code and DDU is the NSK contact-seal code shown by the linked catalogs. Confirm details against the exact manufacturer entry rather than treating suffix text as universal.

Does any 17 mm bore bearing replace a 6003?

No. A dimensional candidate must also match the 35 mm OD and 10 mm width, followed by the specified variant and manufacturer-specific checks.

Related sizes

Boundary-dimension cross-reference only. Per the applicable ISO standard (ISO 15 for ball, ISO 355 for tapered), the boundary dimensions are common across brands, so the mounting envelope is interchangeable. This is NOT a drop-in part equivalence. Internal clearance, precision class, seal/shield type (where applicable), cage material and factory lubrication are encoded in brand-specific suffixes and must be matched separately. Always verify against the manufacturer's catalog before substituting.
