The ENRO 16008 is a deep groove ball bearing in the 16000 series, 40 × 68 × 9 mm. Boundary dimensions follow the ISO 15 dimension series.
Three checks for the 16008
Most wrong replacements come from one of these. Each answer below comes from the ENRO model table.
Does the size match?
Measure bore, outside diameter and width. The 16008 is 40 × 68 × 9 mm. If one value differs, see the adjacent sizes below.
Adjacent sizes →Which version do you need?
ENRO lists 3 versions: 16008, 16008-ZZ, 16008-2RS. Match the seals, shields or bore type of the old bearing.
Versions table →Is the load rating enough?
Cr 11.34 kN, C0r 9.26 kN (catalog reference values). Check the life at your load and speed.

What “16008” means
- 160 — bearing type and dimension series code.
- 08 — bore code: code 08 × 5 = 40 mm.
16008 variants: 16008 / 16008-ZZ / 16008-2RS
| Order as | Meaning |
|---|---|
| 16008 | Open. No shields or seals. Lubricated in service by grease or oil. |
| 16008-ZZ | Metal shields, both sides. Non-contact steel shields. Low friction; keeps out larger particles. |
| 16008-2RS | Rubber seals, both sides. Contact rubber seals. Better protection against dust and water; slightly higher friction. |

Selection notes for the 16008
How this size sits against its neighbours in the 16000 series and the other deep groove ball bearing series with the same bore. Every figure is from the ENRO model table.
- The 16008 is the eighth of twenty-two sizes ENRO lists in the 16000 series, 40 × 68 × 9 mm.
- Next size down, the 16007, is 35 × 62 × 9 mm: five millimetres less bore, six millimetres less outside diameter, the same width.
- Next size up, the 16009, is 45 × 75 × 10 mm: five millimetres more bore, seven millimetres more outside diameter, one millimetre wider.
- Six other ENRO deep groove ball bearings share the 40 mm bore: the 6908 (6900 series) is 62 × 12 mm, six millimetres less outside diameter and three millimetres wider; the 6208 (6200 series) is 80 × 18 mm, twelve millimetres more outside diameter and nine millimetres wider.
- The 16008 has a radial section of 14 mm ((D − d) / 2) on a 9 mm width, so its cross-section is taller than it is wide.
- Catalog reference values for the 16008: Cr 11.34 kN, C0r 9.26 kN, limiting speed 9,500 rpm with grease, 11,000 rpm with oil, weight 0.130 kg.
- Catalog dynamic load rating Cr is 11.34 kN for the 16008 against 10.53 kN for the 16007 (slightly less, 0.81 kN or 7%) and 11.61 kN for the 16009 (marginally more, 0.27 kN or 2%).
- ENRO lists the 16008 in three versions: 16008, 16008-ZZ, 16008-2RS. In the same series, the 16007 is listed in the same three versions; the 16009 is listed in the same three versions.

Is the ENRO 16008 interchangeable with other brands' 16008?
Boundary dimensions follow the ISO 15 dimension series. The ENRO 16008 is dimensionally interchangeable with other brands' 16008 of the same size. Confirm seal, clearance and cage requirements in your RFQ.
Where are ENRO bearings made?
ENRO bearings are Made in China by partner factories, under Japan-managed quality control. Every unit passes 100% outgoing inspection before shipment.
What is the difference between 16008-ZZ and 16008-2RS?
16008-ZZ has metal shields, both sides: Non-contact steel shields. Low friction; keeps out larger particles. 16008-2RS has rubber seals, both sides: Contact rubber seals. Better protection against dust and water; slightly higher friction. Boundary dimensions are the same.
Which bearings have the same bore as the 16008?
In the ENRO range, 6808 (40 × 52 × 7 mm), 6908 (40 × 62 × 12 mm), 6008 (40 × 68 × 15 mm), 6208 (40 × 80 × 18 mm) share the 40 mm bore. Outside diameter and width differ, so check the housing before switching.
Which clearance group should I order for the 16008?
CN (normal) suits most positions. C3 is common where the inner ring runs warmer than the outer ring, as in electric motors. Groups are defined in ISO 5753-1; state the one you need in your RFQ.
What is the HS code for the 16008?
Deep Groove Ball Bearings are classified under HS Code 8482.10. Confirm the code with your customs broker.
