SKF 6200-2RSH/C3 Sealed Deep Groove Ball Bearing
The SKF 6200-2RSH/C3 is a sealed single row deep groove ball bearing designed for smooth rotation and effective shaft support in compact mechanical assemblies. It accommodates radial loads and axial loads in both directions while combining integral contact seals with increased internal clearance.
Design and Construction
The SKF 6200-2RSH/C3 features steel balls running between deep raceway grooves. A sheet metal cage separates and guides the rolling elements during operation.
Its bearing steel construction provides strength and effective load support. With dimensions of 10x30x9mm, it offers a compact bearing arrangement for machinery requiring the standard 6200 size.
2RSH Contact Seals and C3 Internal Clearance
The 2RSH designation indicates rubber contact seals on both sides of the bearing. These help retain the factory applied grease while restricting the entry of dust, moisture and other contaminants.
The bearing is supplied lubricated and is not designed for routine relubrication.
Its C3 radial internal clearance is greater than normal clearance. This can help compensate for reductions in operating clearance caused by interference fits and temperature differences between the bearing rings.
Applications
The SKF 6200-2RSH/C3 can be considered for equipment where its dimensions, sealed construction and increased clearance meet the operating requirements.
Small electric motors
Compact industrial pumps
Fans and ventilation equipment
Conveyor rollers and drive assemblies
Agricultural equipment
General mechanical machinery
Benefits
The SKF 6200-2RSH/C3 offers several practical advantages.
Double Contact Seals: Help retain lubricant and protect the rolling elements against contamination.
C3 Internal Clearance: Helps accommodate reductions in operating clearance caused by interference fits and temperature differences.
Low Maintenance: Factory grease lubrication and integrated seals reduce routine lubrication requirements.
Combined Load Support: Accommodates radial loads and axial loads in both directions.
Smooth Rotation: Its deep groove construction supports efficient operation with relatively low friction, although contact seals add some friction.
Compact Construction: Provides effective shaft support for assemblies requiring a 10mm bore and 30mm outside diameter.
Bearing Selection
Before purchasing, confirm that the 10x30x9mm dimensions and C3 radial internal clearance match your equipment specifications.
Check operating loads and speeds alongside shaft and housing fits. Consider temperature, moisture exposure and contamination levels when selecting the bearing.
If normal internal clearance is specified, the SKF 6200-2RSH may be more suitable. For machinery requiring direct external lubrication, consider an appropriate open SKF 6200 variant.
