Tensioner Pulley Bearing Cross-Reference Chart: OTT vs INA vs SKF vs Koyo (2026)

Finding the right cross-reference for tensioner bearings is one of the biggest challenges for pulley assemblers and aftermarket distributors. This chart maps OTT part numbers to the most common OEM and aftermarket brands.

## How to Use This Cross-Reference

Each OTT tensioner bearing is dimensionally identical to its INA/SKF/Koyo equivalent — same bore diameter, outer diameter, width, and seal type. This means direct drop-in replacement without any modification to your pulley housing or assembly tooling.

## Cross-Reference Table: Small Tensioner Bearings (6200 Series)

| OTT Model | Dimensions (d×D×B) | INA Equivalent | SKF Equivalent | Koyo Equivalent | Application | |---|---|---|---|---|---| | 6202 | 15×35×11 | — | 6202-2RS | 6202-2RS | Idler pulleys, small tensioners | | KN6006 | 30×55×13 | — | — | — | Extended inner ring tensioners | | 6301 | 12×37×12 | — | 6301-2RS | 6301-2RS | Compact tensioners | | 6303 | 17×47×14 | — | 6303-2RS | 6303-2RS | Medium tensioners | | 6203 | 17×40×12 | — | 6203-2RS | 6203-2RS | Standard idler pulleys |

## Cross-Reference Table: Eccentric Tensioner Assemblies

| OTT Model | Base Bearing | Dimensions | OEM Application | |---|---|---|---| | VKM74200 | 3203 | Bore 9×OD 52×W 25 | Timing belt tensioner | | VKM13100 | 3203B21 | 13.2×59×22 | Renault/Peugeot timing | | B10-5280 | 3304-17 | 10.2×37×24 | Fiat/Lancia timing | | 830700 | 6004-10.5 | 63.5×32.5×10.3 | General purpose |

## Why Cross-Reference Accuracy Matters

When a tensioner pulley assembler switches from INA or SKF to a Chinese supplier, dimensional accuracy is critical:

  • Bore tolerance: Must match ±0.005mm for proper press-fit into the pulley housing
  • Outer race tolerance: Must match ±0.008mm for smooth rotation
  • Width tolerance: Must match ±0.05mm to avoid interference with belt alignment
  • Radial clearance: Must match the original spec (typically C2 or C3 for tensioner applications)

OTT maintains P6 precision grade as standard (P5 available on request), ensuring every bearing is a true dimensional match to the INA/SKF original.
