- 01Bore
- 12 mm bore: code 01 stands for 12 mm by standard.
- 2RSL/GFJSuffix
- SKF suffix: it defines the variant (sealing, cage, internal clearance or other features).

The SKF deep groove ball bearing of the RSL/GFJ series is a single-row component designed to withstand moderate radial and axial loads in both directions. Its RSL double-sided seal and GFJ grease make it suitable for equipment where the goal is to retain lubricant and block the entry of contaminants. It is available in metric sizes and is used in electric motors, pumps, fans and light-duty transmissions. MR Accesorios Industriales supplies this brand and helps you choose the exact part number.
The designation of this series combines the size number with the suffixes RSL and GFJ. The base number, as in the example 6001, defines the main dimensions according to the deep groove ball bearing standard. The RSL suffix indicates low-friction sealing on both sides, designed to retain grease and exclude dust. The GFJ suffix identifies the factory grease with which it is lubricated. Thus, a part number such as 6001-2RSL/GFJ reads as a bearing of the 6001 series, double-sealed and lubricated with GFJ grease.
In Argentine industry, these bearings appear in low and medium power electric motors, centrifugal pumps, fans, light conveyor belts and machine tools. They are also found in packaging equipment, agitators and belt drive systems. Their sealed construction makes them suitable for environments with dust or moderate humidity, provided the temperature and speed conditions specified for the GFJ grease are respected. They are a common choice when a compact bearing with reduced maintenance is required.
To select the correct part number, take into account the shaft diameter, the housing and the loads of the equipment. The RSL seal offers low friction, but it is not intended for immersion or direct washing. Respect the alignment between shaft and support: excessive misalignment shortens bearing life. During mounting, avoid striking the seals and apply the mounting force on the appropriate ring. No additional lubricant is necessary: the GFJ grease comes factory-dosed. If the equipment operates at high temperatures, verify that the grease is compatible.
Sealed deep groove ball bearings have equivalents across manufacturers, but the suffixes change depending on the brand. The same size may be offered with different types of sealing, internal clearance or lubricant. Therefore, when looking for a replacement, do not rely only on the base number: also compare the seal type, the grease and the tolerance. At MR Accesorios Industriales we can guide you on interchangeability, always starting from the full part number and the operating conditions. We ask for the necessary data to advise you properly.
If you already have the bearing part number, send it by WhatsApp to MR Accesorios Industriales and we will quote you. If you do not have it at hand, send us the shaft and housing dimensions, and the type of equipment where it is mounted. With that information we can identify the RSL/GFJ series you need. We help you choose the right component.

Frequently Asked Questions
- What are the dimensions of the SKF 6001-2RSL/GFJ bearing?
- The SKF 6001-2RSL/GFJ bearing has a 12 mm bore, a 28 mm outside diameter and a 8 mm width (12 x 28 x 8 mm). These are the standardised boundary dimensions (ISO 15) of the basic designation 6001.
- What does the RSL suffix mean on this SKF bearing?
- The RSL suffix indicates that the bearing has low-friction sealing on both sides. This seal retains grease and blocks the entry of contaminants, but it is not designed for immersion. It is a common solution in equipment with a dusty or moderately humid environment.
- Can I replace a 6001-2RSL/GFJ bearing with one of a different brand?
- Yes, as long as the main dimensions and the sealing and lubrication conditions match. Suffixes vary between manufacturers, so the base number alone is not enough. Send the full part number and the working conditions so we can indicate a compatible alternative.
- How do I request a quote for this bearing at MR?
- Write to us on WhatsApp with the full part number, for example 6001-2RSL/GFJ, or with the shaft and housing dimensions. We will reply with the quote and, if necessary, advise you on choosing the right variant. We handle technical inquiries.
