6903 Bearing Dimensions
The ENRO 6903 is a deep groove ball bearing in the 6900 series, 17 × 30 × 7 mm. Boundary dimensions follow the ISO 15 dimension series.
Three checks for the 6903
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 6903 is 17 × 30 × 7 mm. If one value differs, see the adjacent sizes below.
Adjacent sizes →Which version do you need?
ENRO lists 3 versions: 6903, 6903-ZZ, 6903-2RS. Match the seals, shields or bore type of the old bearing.
Versions table →Is the load rating enough?
Cr 4.46 kN, C0r 2.48 kN (catalog reference values). Check the life at your load and speed.

What “6903” means
- 69 — bearing type and dimension series code.
- 03 — bore code: code 03 is a fixed code for 17 mm.
6903 variants: 6903 / 6903-ZZ / 6903-2RS
| Order as | Meaning |
|---|---|
| 6903 | Open. No shields or seals. Lubricated in service by grease or oil. |
| 6903-ZZ | Metal shields, both sides. Non-contact steel shields. Low friction; keeps out larger particles. |
| 6903-2RS | Rubber seals, both sides. Contact rubber seals. Better protection against dust and water; slightly higher friction. |

Selection notes for the 6903
How this size sits against its neighbours in the 6900 series and the other deep groove ball bearing series with the same bore. Every figure is from the ENRO model table.
- The 6903 is the fourth of twenty-eight sizes ENRO lists in the 6900 series, 17 × 30 × 7 mm.
- Next size down, the 6902, is 15 × 28 × 7 mm: two millimetres less bore, two millimetres less outside diameter, the same width.
- Next size up, the 6904, is 20 × 37 × 9 mm: three millimetres more bore, seven millimetres more outside diameter, two millimetres wider.
- Seven other ENRO deep groove ball bearings share the 17 mm bore: the 6803 (6800 series) is 26 × 5 mm, four millimetres less outside diameter and two millimetres narrower; the 16003 (16000 series) is 35 × 8 mm, five millimetres more outside diameter and one millimetre wider.
- The 6903 has a radial section of 6.5 mm ((D − d) / 2) on a 7 mm width, so its cross-section is wider than it is tall.
- Catalog reference values for the 6903: Cr 4.46 kN, C0r 2.48 kN, limiting speed 21,000 rpm with grease, 25,000 rpm with oil, weight 0.017 kg.
- Catalog dynamic load rating Cr is 4.46 kN for the 6903 against 3.69 kN for the 6902 (noticeably less, 0.77 kN or 17%) and 5.76 kN for the 6904 (substantially more, 1.3 kN or 29%).
- ENRO lists the 6903 in three versions: 6903, 6903-ZZ, 6903-2RS. In the same series, the 6902 is listed in the same three versions; the 6904 is listed in the same three versions.

Which versions of the 6903 can I order?
ENRO lists the 6903 as 6903 (Open), 6903-ZZ (Metal shields, both sides), 6903-2RS (Rubber seals, both sides). State the clearance group you need in your RFQ.
Is the ENRO 6903 interchangeable with other brands' 6903?
Boundary dimensions follow the ISO 15 dimension series. The ENRO 6903 is dimensionally interchangeable with other brands' 6903 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 6903-ZZ and 6903-2RS?
6903-ZZ has metal shields, both sides: Non-contact steel shields. Low friction; keeps out larger particles. 6903-2RS 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 6903?
In the ENRO range, 6703 (17 × 23 × 4 mm), 6803 (17 × 26 × 5 mm), 16003 (17 × 35 × 8 mm), 6003 (17 × 35 × 10 mm) share the 17 mm bore. Outside diameter and width differ, so check the housing before switching.
Which clearance group should I order for the 6903?
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 6903?
Deep Groove Ball Bearings are classified under HS Code 8482.10. Confirm the code with your customs broker.
