The Walter Ball Bearing 6003 RS (SKU: 48Q265) is a critical maintenance component designed to restore the functionality and safety of your Walter Surface Technologies power tools. In the demanding environment of industrial metalworking, power tools are subjected to high rotational speeds, significant radial loads, and an abundance of abrasive particulate matter. The bearings within these tools are the first line of defense against friction and mechanical failure. This specific 6003 series bearing is engineered to meet the exact tolerances required by Walter's high-performance grinders and finishing tools.
Constructed from high-grade hardened steel, this deep groove ball bearing offers exceptional durability and resistance to deformation under load. The "RS" designation indicates a rubber seal on the side of the bearing. This seal is vital for MRO applications in welding and fabrication shops, as it effectively prevents the ingress of conductive dust, grinding swarf, and other contaminants that typically destroy open bearings. Simultaneously, the seal retains the factory-applied high-speed grease, ensuring the rolling elements remain lubricated throughout the component's service life.
Replacing worn bearings is a standard preventative maintenance procedure that prevents catastrophic failure of the tool's armature or spindle. Symptoms of a failing bearing include excessive noise, increased vibration, and overheating of the tool housing. By installing the genuine Walter 48Q265, you ensure that the tool retains its original balance specifications, reducing operator fatigue and ensuring a consistent finish on your workpieces. This part fits a variety of Walter electric power tools; please verify the schematic of your specific model to ensure the 6003 RS size (17mm x 35mm x 10mm) is the correct fitment for your repair.
