The NSK R …B ZZ series deep groove ball bearing is a single-row bearing with ZZ metal seals, designed to withstand moderate radial and axial loads in both directions. Its inch construction makes it compatible with equipment of American or British origin, where metric measurements do not apply. It is used in transmissions, pumps, fans and low- and medium-demand machinery. MR Accesorios Industriales sells it in Buenos Aires, Argentina, and quotes it on WhatsApp with the exact code.
The designation of the R …B ZZ series is read as follows: the letter R indicates that it belongs to the NSK Inch Series, with dimensions in inches. The number that follows — as in R 4B ZZ — defines the size of the bearing within that series. The suffix ZZ indicates that it has two metal seals (steel shields) on both sides, which retain lubrication and block the entry of dust and coarse particles. Do not confuse with 2RS, which are rubber seals. This combination is common in applications where protection is sought without increasing friction.
In Argentine industry, R …B ZZ series bearings appear in imported equipment: low-power electric motors, centrifugal pumps, induced draft fans, belt conveyors and machine tools. They are also found in the food sector, where frequent cleaning requires sealing that resists splashes, and in maintenance workshops that repair machinery with inch measurements. MR Accesorios Industriales, with more than 80 years in the field, advises you to identify the correct replacement.
To select the right bearing, take into account the inner, outer and width diameters in inches, which come from the code. Verify that the shaft and housing have the recommended tolerances and fit for this type of bearing. ZZ sealing is suitable for environments with dust and moderate humidity, but if there are pressurized liquids or vapors, it is advisable to evaluate rubber seals. Lubrication comes from the factory; if you need to relubricate, do so with compatible grease. Alignment between shaft and support is key to avoid additional loads.
When replacing, inch series deep groove ball bearings are available from different brands under equivalent nomenclatures. If the original code is not available, it can be cross-referenced by dimensions and type of sealing. At MR we quote the NSK R …B ZZ code or the exact measurement you need. Write to us on WhatsApp with the code or the measurements and we will respond promptly.

Frequently Asked Questions
- What does the ZZ suffix mean on this bearing?
- ZZ indicates that the bearing has two metal seals, one on each side. These seals protect against dust and dirt, and retain the lubricating grease. They are not rubber seals, so they offer lower rotation resistance but less sealing against liquids.
- How do I request a quote for the NSK R …B ZZ bearing?
- Write to us on WhatsApp with the complete code or the inch measurements you need. At MR Accesorios Industriales we quote the NSK R …B ZZ bearing or the compatible alternative and respond promptly.
- Is this bearing suitable for high temperatures?
- Bearings with ZZ metal seals have a temperature range limited by the grease and the seal material. For elevated temperatures, it is recommended to evaluate bearings with brass cages or special seals. Consult us on WhatsApp and we will indicate the appropriate option.
