Milwaukee Ball Bearing 6205-RZ
Model Number: 02-04-0046
The Milwaukee 02-04-0046 is a genuine OEM Ball Bearing, 6205-RZ, for the 6176-20 and 6177-20 14 in. Abrasive Cut-Off Machines. The bearing supports a rotating shaft within the tool, carrying the load and allowing the shaft to spin smoothly with minimal friction. It is a 6205-series ball bearing, which has standard dimensions of a 25 mm bore, a 52 mm outside diameter, and a 15 mm width, in Milwaukee's RZ seal configuration. Bearings are wear items in a power tool: they run under load and build heat, and over time the grease breaks down and the races and balls wear, so a bearing that has gone rough, noisy, or loose causes vibration, noise, and roughness and should be replaced to restore smooth, quiet operation and to protect the shaft and surrounding components.
When ordering, match the exact part number rather than the bearing size alone. Milwaukee uses distinct part numbers to differentiate the seal, shield, and internal clearance configurations of bearings that share the same nominal 6205 size, so a generic or differently sealed 6205 bearing may not be the correct replacement for this application. Order the 02-04-0046 specifically to get the correct 6205-RZ configuration. This bearing is identified as Figure 13 on Milwaukee service bulletin 55-40-0675. Installation often requires an arbor press to seat the bearing on the shaft or into its bore, and the bearing's seal orientation should be observed during assembly. Because Milwaukee specifies service parts by serial number as well as catalog number, verify your catalog and serial number against the official Milwaukee service parts diagram before ordering, since running production changes can alter part compatibility within the same catalog number.
