SKF 609-2RSH/C3 Rubber Sealed Single Row Deep Groove Ball Bearing 9x24x7mm

The SKF 609-2RSH/C3 sealed miniature deep groove ball bearing provides compact shaft support for machinery requiring a 9mm bore, 24mm outside diameter and 7mm width. Its single row deep groove raceways accommodate predominantly radial loads together with limited axial loading in either direction, subject to the bearing's operating limits. SKF catalogue specifications give a basic dynamic load rating of 3.9kN and a basic static load rating of 1.66kN. The principal distinction is its C3 radial internal clearance, which is greater than normal and can help compensate for clearance reductions caused by interference fitting or temperature differences between the inner and outer rings. C3 should be selected according to the equipment manufacturer's requirements rather than treated as a universal upgrade.

The 2RSH rubber contact seals provide contacting protection on both sides, helping retain the factory grease and restrict the entry of dust, dirt and moisture. This is useful in small electrical and mechanical assemblies where access for lubrication is limited. SKF lists a 19,000rpm limiting speed for the sealed 609 configuration, although continuous operating suitability also depends on load, temperature, lubrication and seal friction. The bearing uses a sheet metal cage and has an approximate mass of 14g. For replacement work, verify the complete designation, particularly the C3 suffix, because a normal-clearance 609-2RSH may respond differently to the same mounting fits and operating conditions. Apply installation force only to the ring being fitted to avoid damaging the raceways.

Typical Applications:

Small electric motors requiring C3 internal clearance

Compact industrial fans and ventilation equipment

Miniature mechanical drive and pulley assemblies

Precision automation and rotating shaft mechanisms

Enclosed electrical machinery with 9mm bearing seats
