SKF double row angular contact bearings are components designed to support combined radial and axial loads in both directions. Their construction with two rows of balls allows greater load capacity than a single row bearing in the same space. They are used in applications requiring rigidity and precision, such as machine tool spindles, pumps and gearboxes. At MR Accesorios Industriales we stock this line with the backing of more than 80 years in the Argentine industrial market.
The designation of these bearings is interpreted from the series and suffixes. For example, the code PER.5208-2RSWC3 combines the execution type, the bore diameter and the sealing and clearance characteristics. The suffix 2RS indicates rubber seals on both sides, W indicates that the bearing is for general use, and C3 specifies an internal radial clearance greater than standard. Knowing these codes is key to identifying the correct variant.
They are suitable for industries that demand reliability and precision. They are found in machine tool spindles, centrifugal pumps, compressors, gearboxes and transmission equipment. In Argentina, the metalworking, food and petrochemical sectors often require these bearings for replacements or new designs. Their ability to support axial loads in both directions makes them versatile in assemblies where a single-direction bearing cannot be used.
When selecting a double row bearing, consider the sealing: the 2RS option protects against contaminants and retains lubricant, ideal for dirty or humid environments. The C3 clearance is recommended when there are thermal gradients or interference fits. For mounting, ensure precise alignment between housing and shaft, and verify that lubrication is adequate according to speed and load. Incorrect mounting can reduce bearing life.
Regarding equivalences, different manufacturers may offer bearings with similar designations, but dimensions and capacities may vary. Always verify critical measurements and operating conditions before interchanging brands. SKF is an official brand that MR carries, which guarantees access to genuine products with traceability. If you need to replace an existing bearing, compare the suffixes and radial clearance to ensure compatibility.

Frequently Asked Questions
- What does the suffix 2RS mean on an SKF bearing?
- The suffix 2RS indicates that the bearing has rubber seals on both sides. These seals protect against contaminant ingress and help retain lubricant, extending service life in demanding environments.
- When should I choose a bearing with C3 clearance?
- C3 clearance is recommended when the bearing will operate at elevated temperatures or when interference fits reduce internal clearance. Also in applications requiring greater tolerance to thermal expansion.
- How do I request a quote for SKF bearings from MR?
- Send the complete bearing code via WhatsApp to MR Accesorios Industriales. We will quote you promptly.
