Deep Groove Ball Bearings SKF 6206 -2RS1

The SKF 6206-2RS1 deep groove ball bearing, with dimensions of 30x62x16 mm and contact seals on both sides, offers reliable protection against contamination.

The SKF 6206-2RS1 deep groove ball bearing is a single-row rolling bearing made from standard 100Cr6 bearing steel for combined loads. With key dimensions of a 30 mm bore, 62 mm outer diameter and 16 mm width, it primarily accommodates radial loads as well as moderate axial loads in both directions. A sheet steel cage guides the rolling elements evenly into the deep raceways. The lip seals on both sides are designed to prevent particles and moisture from entering the interior and to retain the lubricant within the bearing chamber.

What is the 6206-2RS1 deep-groove ball bearing suitable for?

This rolling bearing is designed for rotating shafts and axles subject to a predominantly radial load and guiding forces on both sides. Thanks to the 2RS1 seals on both sides, the component is particularly suitable for dusty or damp environmental conditions, where open designs would be subject to increased wear. The permissible operating temperature range extends from –20 to +120 degrees Celsius and covers standard industrial applications. The outer ring, which has no flange or ring groove, allows for direct installation in cylindrical housing bores.

What are the functions of the seal and the bearing clearance in this design?

The designation 2RS1 refers to abiding seals fitted on both sides. This design mechanically seals the interior against the ingress of contaminants and, due to its construction, causes minimal friction. The bearing has a standard radial clearance and a tolerance class of P0/PN (corresponding to ABEC 1). This design is therefore suitable for standard fits where no extreme thermal expansion or special press fits need to be taken into account.
