Deep Groove Ball Bearings SKF 6207 -RS1

The SKF 6207-RS1 deep groove ball bearing, measuring 35x72x17 mm and featuring a single-side seal, protects against the ingress of dirt whilst offering low frictional resistance.

The SKF 6207 -RS1 single-row deep groove ball bearing is suitable for accommodating both radial and axial loads in both directions. Thanks to its compact main dimensions – a 35 mm bore, 72 mm outside diameter and 17 mm width – the component can be integrated into existing shaft designs. Manufactured from standard roller bearing steel (100Cr6) with a robust sheet steel cage, this design is rated for operating temperatures ranging from –20 to +120 degrees. The standard radial clearance ensures balanced operating clearance in standard applications.

What is the 6207-RS1 deep groove ball bearing suitable for?

This rolling bearing is primarily used where moderate speeds and combined radial and axial loads occur. Typical applications include bearing arrangements with force support on both sides in general mechanical engineering. Thanks to the standard tolerance of class P0 or ABEC 1, the bearing fits onto standard shafts without requiring any special machining. Designers make specific use of the single-sided seal when lubricant needs to be retained within the housing, whilst the opposite side is supplied via an open lubrication zone.

What are the key features of the single-sided RS1 seal?

The single-sided RS1 seal protects the rolling elements from dirt particles and moisture from the outside, whilst the open rear side remains accessible. Assemblies can be designed so that one side adjoins a sealed lubricant chamber. Frictional resistance remains lower than with designs that are sealed on both sides. During assembly, the sealing lip must face the contaminated side to ensure the sealing effect is maintained and the bearing seat is correctly centred.
