SKF deep groove ball bearings with RSH sealing are single-row ball components, designed to withstand moderate radial and axial loads in both directions. The RSH seal, an elastomer seal on one side, protects against the entry of contaminants and retains the lubricant. They are used in electric motors, fans, pumps, portable tools and a wide variety of industrial equipment.
The designation of these bearings combines the basic number with the suffix RSH. For example, in 607-2RSH the number 607 identifies the size and series, while 2RSH indicates sealing on both sides. In 608-RSH, the suffix RSH indicates sealing on one side only. Examples such as 609-2RSH, 626-2RSH, 627-2RSH and 629-2RSH show how the base number defines the dimensions and the suffix the sealing variants. This nomenclature allows you to quickly identify the type of protection each bearing has.
These bearings are used in low and medium power electric motors, fans, centrifugal pumps, compressors, machine tools and transmission equipment. In Argentina, you will find them in the food, textile, automotive and metalworking industries and in maintenance workshops. Their compact size and their ability to work at moderate speeds make them common in household appliances, refrigeration equipment and light conveying systems.
To select the correct bearing, take into account the radial and axial load, the rotation speed and the environmental conditions. RSH sealing is suitable when there is dust, humidity or liquid splashes; if the environment is clean and lower friction is required, an open or shield variant may be preferable. When mounting, check the alignment of the shaft and the housing, and avoid blows that could damage the seals. Lubrication comes from the factory; do not replace it unless the manufacturer indicates so. A fit with moderate interference on the inner or outer ring ensures correct seating.
If you need to replace a bearing from another brand, the basic numeric code and the type of sealing are usually equivalent between manufacturers. For example, a bearing with the 2RS suffix from another brand may correspond to an SKF 2RSH, although always check the tolerances and clearance. MR Accesorios Industriales sells the SKF brand and can advise you on interchangeability. To do so, send us the complete code or the shaft and housing dimensions, and we will indicate the compatible alternative.
MR Accesorios Industriales sells SKF bearings and quotes them on WhatsApp. Send us the exact code that appears on the bearing or the size you need, and we will reply shortly with the quote. If you have doubts about the designation, send us a photo or the equipment data and we will help you identify the right replacement. We are in Buenos Aires, Argentina.

Frequently Asked Questions
- What are the dimensions of the SKF 6003-RSH bearing?
- The SKF 6003-RSH bearing has a 17 mm bore, a 35 mm outside diameter and a 10 mm width (17 x 35 x 10 mm). These are the standardised boundary dimensions (ISO 15) of the basic designation 6003.
- What does the RSH suffix mean on an SKF bearing?
- The RSH suffix indicates that the bearing has an elastomer seal on one side. The 2RSH variant has sealing on both sides. This seal protects against contaminants and retains lubrication, so it is common in applications with dust or moderate humidity.
- How do I request a quote for an SKF RSH bearing?
- Write to us on WhatsApp with the complete code that appears on the bearing, for example 608-2RSH, or with the shaft and housing dimensions. We will quote you shortly. If you are not sure of the code, send us a photo and we will help you identify it.
- Can I replace a bearing from another brand with an SKF RSH?
- In general, yes. Deep groove ball bearings with 2RS sealing from other brands are usually interchangeable with SKF 2RSH, as long as the dimensions and clearance match. Send us the code of the original part and we will indicate the compatible equivalent.
