The SKF BS2-2220-2RS5K/VT143 bearing is a special spherical roller bearing with double sealing and a high-sealing design. It is used in equipment where contamination, moisture or frequent washdowns shorten the life of conventional bearings. Its sealed construction retains lubricant and blocks the entry of particles, making it suitable for demanding applications in mining, cement, food and water treatment. MR Accesorios Industriales supplies this official brand and advises you so you can choose the correct variant for your equipment.

The designation BS2-2220-2RS5K/VT143 is read in parts. The prefix BS2 identifies the series of sealed spherical roller bearings with a specific seal design. The number 2220 corresponds to the bearing size within that series. The suffix 2RS5 indicates double contact sealing, and the final K indicates a tapered bore. The suffix /VT143 defines the type of lubricant and the factory fill level. Knowing these codes allows you to order the exact replacement without ambiguity.

This type of bearing is used in industries where dust, water or chemicals are present. In Argentina it is common in mineral conveyors, mills, centrifugal pumps, mixers and process equipment in food and beverage plants. It is also used in road and agricultural machinery operating outdoors. Its ability to withstand angular misalignment and combined loads makes it a robust option for long shafts or assemblies with alignment difficulties.

To select correctly, take into account the type of sealing: 2RS5 offers high protection but adds friction, so it is not ideal for high speeds. Verify that the tapered bore K is compatible with your shaft and the fastening system (adapter sleeve, lock nut). The VT143 lubrication comes from the factory and should not be mixed with other greases without consulting. During mounting, ensure proper alignment and avoid striking the seals. If the equipment operates with frequent washdowns, this seal is the right choice.

When looking for equivalents from other brands, do not rely only on the size number. Seal suffixes, internal clearance and lubricant vary between manufacturers. A bearing with similar dimensions may have a different seal type or tolerance and may not be directly interchangeable. Always verify the complete code and the service conditions. At MR Accesorios Industriales we can help you interpret the differences and find the option that best suits your application.

Frequently Asked Questions

What does the VT143 suffix mean on this bearing?
The VT143 suffix indicates the type of lubricant and the fill level with which it leaves the factory. It is not a dimension or a tolerance, but a lubrication specification. If you need to replace the grease, consult us to avoid mixing incompatible products.
Can I use this bearing on a shaft without a taper?
No, the letter K in the designation indicates a tapered bore. For a cylindrical shaft you need another variant. If your shaft is cylindrical, we can look for the equivalent code without K. Send us your shaft dimensions and we will advise you.
Is this bearing suitable for high speeds?
The 2RS5 contact seal offers great protection against contaminants, but generates more friction than an open bearing. For high speeds, consider a variant with lower resistance. Tell us the rpm of your equipment and we will recommend the right option.
