FAQ

What is the significance of the "2RSH" suffix on this SKF bearing?

The "2RSH" suffix indicates the sealing solution. "2" means the bearing is sealed on both sides. "RSH" refers to a contact seal made of Acrylonitrile-butadiene rubber (NBR) with a sheet steel reinforcement. These seals provide effective protection against contaminants and water spray.

Can I use a 6204-2Z bearing as a direct replacement for this 6204-2RSH?

While dimensionally identical, the sealing is different. A 6204-2Z has non-contact metal shields, which offer less protection against fine dust and moisture but have lower friction. For applications exposed to contamination or moisture, the 6204-2RSH is the superior choice and they are not always interchangeable.

What type of lubrication is factory-filled in an SKF Explorer 6204-2RSH?

SKF Explorer bearings like this one are typically pre-lubricated with a high-quality grease, designed for a wide range of operating conditions and temperatures (usually from -40 to +120 deg C). For most applications, they are considered lubricated for life and do not require re-lubrication.
