Timken 6203-2RSC3 6203-2RS Deep Groove Ball Bearing 17x40x12mm

You pay a few extra dollars for this brand, but you get a quality bearing that should last. Tolerances are good too.

Bought for my John Deere Ride mower, 48 deck, 3 cutting blades, 2 bearings per spindle. Factory bearings did not last very long, even with regular greasing. Hour wise these have lasted 2 X as long and still going. Never know that you get what you pay for, until you have a true comparison.... Rusty

This was exactly what I needed for my 2007 Toyota Camry se for the tensioner pulley. I DID NOT want to do the whole tensioner (anyone with this car knows why) and this saved me. Tip: a 30mm socket will push the bearing in for this car. Just make sure it’s a 30mm regular (not black impact) socket.

Got them quickly, no problem

JD X500 riding lawn tractor drive pulley assembly is not serviceable. JD wants to sell the entire assembly at around $80 (part cost only) and does not sell the bearings separately. These fit perfectly. Remove the old ones, put these in, reassemble deck and youre good to go. Save yourself some money if you are handy.

received quickly good bearing fit and worked not American Made only dislike

Timken is an American brand if you consider it was founded in the United States and head quartered in North Canton, Ohio (Wikipedia). The bearing is described as American Brand. Thus, leaving where its made as a complete mystery. When the 6203-2RSC3 6203-2RS bearing arrived neither the box nor wrapper nor bearing had any indication of country of origin. I ordered another bearing from Texas Cargo on AMAZON Timken 6203-2RS Bearing 17mm x 40mm x 12mm Made in USA.... That bearing had nearly identical packaging, the wrapper was a little more substantial and the bearing did say USA.

I have always wanted to use Timken Bearings whenever I could. It has been a while, and I was surprised to see that they were not made here. I had ordered Timken over other bearings thinking they were still made here. Disappointing.

I had a tensioner and two other pulleys on my 04/05 F150 that were shot. I saved HUGE by replacing the bearings in the pulleys. Ive always had good luck with Timken and so far they have been doing great (5 months now).

Excellent bearings, work well for our application.
