However, this does not mean that you can randomly take any of them in the hope that it will fit. First, you should carefully study the dimensions and other parameters, and then buy a new part.
What are the dimensions of the components?
As we already found out from the previous paragraph, most often washing machines from LG are equipped with bearings 205 and 206 - they are the most common parts. We will analyze them in detail, as well as a number of other parts that are also often installed on washing machines.

This is a closed type bearing that is included in the bearing assembly of the washing machine. For this bearing, the seal is selected according to the diameter of the larger bearing, that is, 52 millimeters.
Bearing 206, also known as 6206 ZZ, is larger than its popular “brother”, so its average market price is slightly higher - about $7 per piece. Article GOST - 80206, dimensions 30 by 62 by 16 millimeters, where the largest number is the outer diameter, 30 is the inner diameter and 16 is the width.

Dimensions reach 20 by 47 by 14 millimeters, where 47 is the outer diameter, 20 is the inner diameter, 14 is the width. Select an oil seal of the same size as the maximum diameter of the bearing, that is, 47 millimeters.
