Deep Groove Ball Bearings FAG 6008 -2RSR

The FAG 6008 -2RSR deep groove ball bearing has compact dimensions of 40x68x15 mm and offers protection against contamination on both sides.

The FAG 6008-2RSR deep groove ball bearing is a single-row rolling bearing designed primarily for radial loads. With a bore of 40 mm, an outside diameter of 68 mm and a width of 15 mm, this design complies with standardised mounting dimensions in mechanical engineering. Manufactured from standard roller bearing steel 100Cr6 and fitted with a sheet steel cage, the deep groove ball bearing also accommodates moderate axial forces in both directions. This design is suitable for industrial assembly and maintenance applications.

In which applications does the 6008-2RSR deep groove ball bearing prove its worth?

The rolling bearing is used in designs where rotating shafts need to be supported and protected from external contaminants. Typical applications include industrial drives and rotating assemblies subject to combined forces. As the bearing is designed for operating temperatures ranging from -20 to +100 degrees, it covers standard thermal environmental conditions in continuous industrial operation. Users employ this variant for maintenance work as well as for new designs.

What is the function of the 2RSR seal on this rolling bearing?

The designation 2RSR stands for abutment-type sealing lips fitted on both sides. These abutment-type sealing discs protect the interior of the bearing from moisture and dirt particles and retain the lubricant on the rolling elements. Combined with the standard radial bearing clearance and tolerance class P0 (ABEC 1), this provides a ready-to-fit component for standard applications. The integrated sealing reduces the need for external protective measures at the housing seat.
