How to read SKF 608-2RSH/C3WT
- 60Series
- Deep groove ball bearings, 60 series. For the same bore, each series has a different outside diameter and width.
- 8Bore
- 8 mm bore.
- 2RSH/C3WTSuffix
- SKF suffix: it defines the variant (sealing, cage, internal clearance or other features).
608 is the standard (ISO) basic designation: it defines the type, the series and the bore.
Description

The SKF deep groove ball bearing with 2RSH and C3WT suffixes is a component designed to support moderate radial and axial loads in applications requiring effective sealing against contaminants and internal clearance adapted to specific thermal conditions. Its single-row ball and deep raceway construction gives it versatility to run at high speeds, making it a common choice in industrial equipment operating in demanding environments.
The designation of these bearings is interpreted as follows: the basic number, such as 6005 or 6205, indicates the size and series (60 for light section, 62 for medium section). The 2RSH suffix indicates that the bearing incorporates rubber contact seals on both sides, providing an effective barrier against dust, dirt and moisture. The C3WT suffix combines two specifications: C3 indicates an internal radial clearance greater than standard, suitable for applications with high temperatures or interference fits, and WT refers to a special heat treatment that allows operation at higher temperatures, up to approximately 200 °C, maintaining dimensional stability.
These bearings are used in a wide variety of industrial applications in Argentina, such as electric motors, centrifugal pumps, fans, conveyors, machine tools and agricultural equipment. Their 2RSH seal makes them suitable for environments with dust, chips or moderate moisture, while the C3WT clearance makes them a frequent choice in equipment working with thermal differences between shaft and housing, such as ovens, dryers or forced ventilation systems.
To correctly select a bearing of this type, it is essential to consider the radial and axial load it must support, the rotation speed, the environmental conditions and the operating temperature. Mounting must be carried out with suitable tools, avoiding direct blows on the rings and balls. It is recommended to verify the alignment of the shaft and housing, as well as to use a lubricant compatible with the rubber seals. In high-temperature applications, the C3WT clearance compensates for thermal expansion and prevents the bearing from becoming excessively preloaded.
As for equivalences and interchangeability, SKF bearings with 2RSH and C3WT suffixes can be replaced by products from other manufacturers offering similar specifications, such as double contact sealing and C3 clearance with stabilized heat treatment. It is important to verify that the main dimensions (bore, outer diameter and width) match, as well as the tolerances and internal clearance. Not all manufacturers use the same nomenclature to indicate these characteristics, so it is recommended to consult equivalence tables or provide the full code when requesting a quote.
If you need to replace a bearing with these characteristics, at MR Accesorios Industriales we sell the SKF brand and can advise you so you choose the right option. Send the full code by WhatsApp and we will reply shortly with the information you need for your order.

Frequently Asked Questions
- What are the dimensions of the SKF 608-2RSH/C3WT bearing?
- The SKF 608-2RSH/C3WT bearing has a 8 mm bore, a 22 mm outside diameter and a 7 mm width (8 x 22 x 7 mm). These are the standardised boundary dimensions (ISO 15) of the basic designation 608.
- What does the C3WT suffix mean on an SKF bearing?
- C3 indicates an internal radial clearance greater than standard, and WT refers to a heat treatment that allows operation at high temperatures, up to approximately 200 °C, without losing dimensional stability.
- Is this bearing suitable for dusty environments?
- Yes, the 2RSH rubber contact seal on both sides offers an effective barrier against dust, dirt and moderate moisture, making it suitable for demanding industrial environments.
- Can I replace an SKF 2RSH/C3WT bearing with another brand?
- Yes, as long as the replacement has equivalent dimensions, double contact sealing and C3 clearance with similar heat treatment. Verify the specifications and check with us to ensure compatibility.
