The SKF 6024-2RS1/C3 sealed deep groove ball bearing offers a practical solution for heavy industrial equipment requiring a 120mm bore without the larger housing dimensions of a 62 series bearing. Its 180mm outside diameter and 28mm width suit installations where radial space and axial length are constrained. The single row deep groove raceways accommodate predominantly radial loads together with axial forces in either direction, subject to the bearing's rated capacity. SKF specifications give a basic dynamic load rating of 88.4kN and a basic static load rating of 80kN, allowing engineers to assess fatigue life and stationary loading. Its SKF Explorer classification and pressed steel cage make it a suitable candidate for demanding industrial shaft arrangements when operating conditions fall within the manufacturer's limits.
The 2RS1 contact seals protect both sides of the bearing, retaining factory-applied grease while helping prevent dust, dirt and moisture from reaching the rolling elements. SKF specifies a limiting speed of 2,200rpm for the sealed configuration, although actual permissible operation depends on temperature, loading and lubrication conditions. The C3 suffix is an important selection feature: it indicates greater-than-normal radial internal clearance, not looser manufacturing tolerances or a higher load rating. This additional initial clearance can compensate for reductions caused by interference fits or differential thermal expansion, but suitability must be assessed for each application. The bearing weighs approximately 2.11kg. During replacement, confirm the complete designation, particularly the C3 suffix, and avoid transferring mounting forces through the balls.
Typical Applications:
Large industrial electric motor shaft assemblies
Industrial ventilation fans and blower drives
Centrifugal pumps and fluid-handling machinery
Conveyor drive and power transmission equipment
Industrial rotating machinery with C3 clearance requirements
