Hello. Could someone tell me what is the number for SKF bearings stihl ms230. I want to replace the original ones because they are made with plastic. I want to put bearings made only from metal i think SKF are the best choice but i dont know the number or code of the bearings.
 
You're right, don't buy any more of those bearings with the engineered polymer (plastic) ribbons.

SKF #6202-C3, metric size with measurements of 15 x 35 x 11mm, both sides the same. If all you can find are
the ones with side shields or seals, just remember to pull the shields or seals out before you install the bearings.

Also the same bearing is used in a Stihl 041, on the PTO side
