SKF 6212-2RS1/C3 Rubber Sealed Single Row Deep Groove Ball Bearing 60x110x22mm

The SKF 6212-2RS1/C3 sealed deep groove ball bearing provides dependable rotating shaft support in industrial equipment exposed to sustained loads and operating temperature changes. Its 60mm bore, 110mm outside diameter and 22mm width make it suitable for machinery designed around the standard 6212 bearing envelope. 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 Explorer specifications give a basic dynamic load rating of 55.3kN and a basic static load rating of 36kN. These ratings are important when assessing bearing fatigue life, stationary loads and the demands of continuous-duty machinery.

The distinguishing feature of the 6212-2RS1/C3 is its greater-than-normal C3 radial internal clearance. This provides additional initial clearance that can help compensate for reductions caused by tight mounting fits and thermal expansion. It should not be confused with the standard-clearance 6212-2RS1, despite their identical dimensions. The 2RS1 rubber contact seals retain factory-applied grease and help limit the entry of dust, dirt and moisture, reducing routine lubrication requirements. SKF lists a limiting speed of 4,000rpm for this contact-sealed configuration, with continuous operating suitability also dependent on temperature, load and seal friction. A pressed sheet steel cage supports the rolling elements. Correct shaft fits, housing tolerances and installed clearance remain essential for reliable service.
