How to read FAG 6208-C-2HRS
- 62Series
- Deep groove ball bearings, 62 series. For the same bore, each series has a different outside diameter and width.
- 08Bore
- 40 mm bore: 08 × 5.
- C-2HRSSuffix
- FAG suffix: it defines the variant (sealing, cage, internal clearance or other features).
6208 is the standard (ISO) basic designation: it defines the type, the series and the bore.
Description

The deep groove ball bearing is the most widely used component for supporting radial and axial loads on rotating shafts. The FAG -C-2HRS series groups versions with contact seals on both sides and a sheet steel cage, designed for dusty or humid environments where lubrication must stay contained. It is used in electric motors, pumps, fans and light-duty transmissions. MR Accesorios Industriales sells this line in Buenos Aires, Argentina, and helps you choose the correct part number.
The designation of these bearings is read in blocks. The base number identifies the size and series: for example, 629, 6000, 6001, 6002, 6004, 6005, 6006 or 6007 correspond to the 60 series, with a thin section, and 629 opens the 62 series. The letter C indicates a steel sheet cage, suitable for continuous service. The suffix 2HRS indicates contact sealing on both sides, which retains the lubricant and blocks the entry of contaminants. If the part number does not include that suffix, the sealing may be different.
In Argentine industry, these bearings appear in low and medium power electric motors, centrifugal pumps, fans, light conveyor belts, machine tools and packaging equipment. They are also found in agro-industrial applications and in maintenance workshops that replace bearings due to wear. The combination of double sealing and sheet steel cage makes them suitable for areas with dust, fine chips or moderate humidity, as long as the operating temperature is compatible with the seal elastomer.
To select correctly, take into account the radial and axial load, the rotation speed and the shaft diameter. The 2HRS sealing adds friction, so at high speeds a bearing with shields may be preferable. Check the alignment of the housing and the fit on the shaft and in the housing: forced mounting damages the seals and shortens service life. Lubrication is built in and does not require replenishment in normal service; if the environment is very aggressive, consider additional sealing or a split plummer block housing.
Cross-brand equivalences are handled by designation system: a bearing of the 60 series with double sealing from another manufacturer can be interchanged if dimensions and sealing type match. The base number alone is not enough: the cage suffix, the sealing and the tolerance must be compared. At MR Accesorios Industriales we guide you to find the right replacement. If you have the original part number, even better: we cross-reference it with the FAG line we sell.
To request a quote, send us on WhatsApp the complete part number shown on the bearing or on the drawing. With that data we identify the exact variant within the -C-2HRS series and reply shortly. If you are not sure about the suffix, a photo of the part or the shaft and housing dimensions help confirm it. MR Accesorios Industriales works with leading brands to cover the needs of industrial maintenance in Buenos Aires, Argentina.

Frequently Asked Questions
- What are the dimensions of the FAG 6208-C-2HRS bearing?
- The FAG 6208-C-2HRS bearing has a 40 mm bore, a 80 mm outside diameter and a 18 mm width (40 x 80 x 18 mm). These are the standardised boundary dimensions (ISO 15) of the basic designation 6208.
- What does the 2HRS suffix mean on a FAG bearing?
- It indicates contact sealing on both sides of the bearing. That seal retains the built-in lubrication and prevents the entry of dust or moisture, so it is suitable for contaminated environments. It is not the same as a shield: the seal rubs and adds some resistance to rotation.
- How do I request a quote for a bearing of this series?
- Message us on WhatsApp with the complete part number shown on the part or on the drawing. If you do not have it at hand, send us the shaft and housing dimensions or a photo. With that we identify the variant and send you a quote shortly.
- Can I replace a bearing from another brand with a FAG one from the -C-2HRS series?
- Yes, if the main dimensions and the sealing type match. The base number alone is not enough: cage, sealing and tolerance must be compared. Send us the original part number and we will help you find the equivalent within the FAG line we sell.
