FAQ

What does the '2RSH' suffix mean on an SKF bearing?

The '2RSH' suffix indicates that the bearing is fitted with two ('2') contact seals ('RSH') made from Acrylonitrile-butadiene rubber (NBR). These seals provide effective protection against solid contaminants and moisture while retaining the grease lubricant, ensuring a long, maintenance-free life.

Yes, the Explorer series represents SKF's high-performance class of rolling bearings. They are manufactured to tighter tolerances from cleaner, more homogenous steel and feature an optimized internal geometry. This results in higher load ratings, reduced friction, and significantly longer service life compared to standard SKF bearings.

The standard SKF 608-2RSH bearing with NBR seals has a recommended operating temperature range of -40 to +100 deg Celsius. For continuous operation above this range, the NBR seal material may degrade. For higher temperature applications, bearings with different seal materials (like FKM/Viton) or open bearings with appropriate high-temperature grease should be considered.
