6908 Bearing Dimensions
The ENRO 6908 is a deep groove ball bearing in the 6900 series, 40 × 62 × 12 mm. Boundary dimensions follow the ISO 15 dimension series.
Three checks for the 6908
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 6908 is 40 × 62 × 12 mm. If one value differs, see the adjacent sizes below.
Adjacent sizes →Which version do you need?
ENRO lists 3 versions: 6908, 6908-ZZ, 6908-2RS. Match the seals, shields or bore type of the old bearing.
Versions table →Is the load rating enough?
Cr 13.14 kN, C0r 9.79 kN (catalog reference values). Check the life at your load and speed.

What “6908” means
- 69 — bearing type and dimension series code.
- 08 — bore code: code 08 × 5 = 40 mm.
6908 variants: 6908 / 6908-ZZ / 6908-2RS
| Order as | Meaning |
|---|---|
| 6908 | Open. No shields or seals. Lubricated in service by grease or oil. |
| 6908-ZZ | Metal shields, both sides. Non-contact steel shields. Low friction; keeps out larger particles. |
| 6908-2RS | Rubber seals, both sides. Contact rubber seals. Better protection against dust and water; slightly higher friction. |

Selection notes for the 6908
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 6908 is the ninth of twenty-eight sizes ENRO lists in the 6900 series, 40 × 62 × 12 mm.
- Next size down, the 6907, is 35 × 55 × 10 mm: five millimetres less bore, seven millimetres less outside diameter, two millimetres narrower.
- Next size up, the 6909, is 45 × 68 × 12 mm: five millimetres more bore, six millimetres more outside diameter, the same width.
- Six other ENRO deep groove ball bearings share the 40 mm bore: the 6808 (6800 series) is 52 × 7 mm, ten millimetres less outside diameter and five millimetres narrower; the 16008 (16000 series) is 68 × 9 mm, six millimetres more outside diameter and three millimetres narrower.
- The 6908 has a radial section of 11 mm ((D − d) / 2) on a 12 mm width, so its cross-section is wider than it is tall.
- Catalog reference values for the 6908: Cr 13.14 kN, C0r 9.79 kN, limiting speed 10,000 rpm with grease, 12,000 rpm with oil, weight 0.112 kg.
- Catalog dynamic load rating Cr is 13.14 kN for the 6908 against 10.08 kN for the 6907 (noticeably less, 3.06 kN or 23%) and 13.59 kN for the 6909 (slightly more, 0.45 kN or 3%).
- ENRO lists the 6908 in three versions: 6908, 6908-ZZ, 6908-2RS. In the same series, the 6907 is listed in the same three versions; the 6909 is listed in the same three versions.

What are the dimensions of the 6908 deep groove ball bearing?
The 6908 has a bore (d) of 40 mm, an outside diameter (D) of 62 mm and a width (B) of 12 mm. Minimum chamfer r is 0.6 mm.
What load rating does the 6908 have?
Catalog reference values: basic dynamic load rating Cr 13.14 kN, static rating C0r 9.79 kN, limiting speed 10,000 rpm with grease. Values are confirmed per batch on request.
Which versions of the 6908 can I order?
ENRO lists the 6908 as 6908 (Open), 6908-ZZ (Metal shields, both sides), 6908-2RS (Rubber seals, both sides). State the clearance group you need in your RFQ.
Is the ENRO 6908 interchangeable with other brands' 6908?
Boundary dimensions follow the ISO 15 dimension series. The ENRO 6908 is dimensionally interchangeable with other brands' 6908 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 6908-ZZ and 6908-2RS?
6908-ZZ has metal shields, both sides: Non-contact steel shields. Low friction; keeps out larger particles. 6908-2RS 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 6908?
In the ENRO range, 6808 (40 × 52 × 7 mm), 16008 (40 × 68 × 9 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 6908?
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 6908?
Deep Groove Ball Bearings are classified under HS Code 8482.10. Confirm the code with your customs broker.
