SKF 608-2RSH Rubber Sealed Single Row Deep Groove Ball Bearing 8x22x7mm

The SKF 608-2RSH sealed deep groove ball bearing is designed for applications requiring an 8mm shaft bearing with a compact outside diameter and good protection against everyday contamination. Its single row ball and raceway construction supports radial loads alongside moderate axial loads in either direction, within the bearing's rated capacity. SKF catalogue data gives a basic dynamic load rating of 3.45kN, a basic static load rating of 1.37kN and a limiting speed of 22,000rpm. These specifications help buyers assess the bearing for small electric motors, guide rollers and precision drive mechanisms. Its comparatively compact construction makes accurate shaft alignment and suitable loading important for consistent operation.

The 2RSH double rubber contact seals retain the factory grease and provide a protective barrier against dust and moisture. This makes the bearing a useful choice for equipment that cannot be regularly relubricated. Unlike the SKF 608-2RSL low-friction sealed version, the 2RSH arrangement places greater emphasis on contamination resistance, with additional seal friction to consider at higher speeds. The standard bearing has normal radial internal clearance rather than C3. When replacing an existing bearing, check the complete designation, particularly where shaft interference fits, motor operating temperatures or the original clearance specification affect bearing selection.

Typical Applications:

Small electric motors and compact drive units

Industrial guide rollers and conveyor mechanisms

Precision instruments and rotating equipment

Compact fans and ventilation assemblies

Light-duty automation and mechanical transmission systems
