SKF 609-2RSH Rubber Sealed Single Row Deep Groove Ball Bearing 9x24x7mm

The SKF 609-2RSH sealed deep groove ball bearing provides rotational support for equipment using a 9mm shaft where available space and protection against contamination are important. Its single row ball construction carries predominantly radial loads while accommodating moderate axial forces in either direction, within the bearing's rated capacity. SKF catalogue specifications include a basic dynamic load rating of 3.9kN, a basic static load rating of 1.66kN and a limiting speed of 19,000rpm. These figures help engineers assess suitability for compact mechanisms, small motor assemblies and lightly loaded transmission components. The bearing's steel cage and deep groove raceways provide a straightforward solution where accurate alignment and consistent shaft rotation are required.

The 2RSH rubber contact seals offer effective protection on both sides, retaining the factory grease and reducing the entry of dust and moisture. Compared with the low-friction 609-2RSL version, the contact sealing arrangement prioritises contamination protection, although it produces additional running resistance. This distinction matters when selecting a bearing for continuous operation at higher speeds. The standard 609-2RSH has normal radial internal clearance, so shaft fits, housing tolerances and operating temperature should be considered before installation. It should not automatically be substituted for a C3 clearance variant where the equipment manufacturer specifies additional internal clearance.

Typical Applications:

Small electric motors and drive assemblies

Compact ventilation fans and blowers

Miniature mechanical transmission systems

Light-duty conveyor and roller mechanisms

Small industrial instruments and rotating equipment
