6703-ZZ Thin Section Deep Groove Ball Bearing | Shielded Lightweight Bearing | 17×23×4 mm

6703-ZZ Thin Section Deep Groove Ball Bearing | Shielded Lightweight Bearing | 17×23×4 mm

The 6703-ZZ is a specialized thin-wall metric ball bearing engineered for applications where strict weight reduction and limited radial space are primary concerns. Featuring two non-contact steel shields (ZZ), this component effectively blocks external particulates while maintaining minimal rotational friction. With an oversized 17mm bore, a compact 23mm outer diameter, and a narrow 4mm width, it is an optimal choice for hollow shaft designs, robotic joints, and advanced aerospace mechanisms.

6703-ZZ Deep Groove Ball Bearing 17x23x4 mm | Extra Light Metric Series | Dual Steel Shields

Built to handle moderate radial loads in highly confined spaces, the 6703-ZZ utilizes high-grade chrome steel construction and precision-honed raceways. Its extra-light series geometry provides designers with the flexibility to reduce the overall dimensions of mechanical housings without compromising structural integrity. Because the metal shields do not make physical contact with the inner ring, drag is virtually eliminated. This ensures consistent, high-efficiency operation in battery-powered devices, optical sensors, and specialized medical robotics.

Key Performance Features

01. Ultra-Thin Wall Geometry

Unlike standard deep groove models, the 6703-ZZ boasts an extremely slim 4mm profile relative to its large 17mm bore. This thin-section design allows engineers to dramatically cut down on equipment weight and housing bulk, which is critical for mobile, wearable, and airborne devices.

02. Friction-Free Shielding System

The dual ZZ metal shields protect the internal rolling elements from dust and larger debris without the rotational drag typically caused by rubber seals. This translates to superior energy efficiency, longer battery life in cordless devices, and lower heat generation during continuous operation.

03. Enhanced Durability & Load Distribution

Manufactured from durable GCr15 bearing steel and strictly adhering to P5 or P6 precision grades, the 6703-ZZ maintains excellent load distribution despite its lightweight frame. This precise manufacturing process minimizes internal vibration and extends the service life of sensitive instrumentation.
