How the 6007-2RS model number is decoded
In the 6000-series (ISO 15 diameter series 0) the last two digits encode the bore: 6007 carries bore code 07 = 35 mm. Outside diameter 62 mm and width 14 mm come from the ISO 15 boundary-dimensions general plan. Suffix -2RS denotes two contact-type elastomer seals over a lifetime grease fill; the sealing lips add drag compared with open or shielded versions. For normal-load mounting with a rotating inner ring on a 35 mm shaft, typical catalogue practice is a k5 shaft seat with an H7 housing bore — verify against the actual load direction and magnitude. SKF's contact-seal catalogue number is 6007-2RS1 (older text: -2RS1), mapped here from the industry-neutral -2RS spelling.
Typical equipment & failure modes
Common applications
- centrifugal pumps
- small gearboxes
- conveyors and drives
- agricultural equipment
Known failure patterns
- seal-lip hardening and loss of pre-grease in sustained high-temperature service
- grease-life expiry in the sealed-for-life cavity (no relubrication path)
- electrical pitting in VFD-driven motors without grounding protection
- raceway smearing under marginal lubrication at start-up
Selection pitfalls — read before you substitute
- At a 35 mm bore, a shaft-seat burr or an overtight setscrew can score the thin inner ring of 6007-2RS; check shaft finish and runout (target Ra ≤ 1.6 µm) before pressing it home.
- The 60xx extra-light section at 35 mm bore uses a smaller 62 mm OD than a 6207; load ratings are lower, so do not replace a failed 62-series bearing with a 60-series without re-rating the load.
- Contact seals add drag and heat: 6007-2RS runs slower and cooler-limited than the open 6007; rubber lips are generally limited to roughly 80–110 °C continuous depending on grease, and C3 clearance is the common hot-duty choice.
- Never wash a sealed 6007-2RS in solvent or press it home via the outer ring; solvent destroys the grease thickener and mounting force through the seal deforms the lip.
- A 35 mm bore listing showing the right d/D/B but no standard or precision-class reference may be a loose-tolerance import; measure bore/OD spread before fitting it to a machined shaft.
- SKF catalogues the contact-sealed version as 6007-2RS1 (older printings may read -2RS1); it is shipped pre-greased and its 7000 r/min limiting speed is set by seal-lip drag and grease life versus the open bearing's 24000 r/min thermal reference speed. The single-seal catalogue number is 6007-RS1, used where one shaft side needs external relubrication.
- A one-seal execution 6007-RS1 exists for arrangements that lubricate through the open side; fitting 6007-2RS1 instead means lifetime grease and no external oil supply — mixing the two in the same shaft can starve the sealed position.
- The 16.8/10.2 kN ratings here are SKF Explorer-class figures from catalogue PUB BU/P1 17000/1 EN (Oct 2018); SKF can revise internal geometry and ratings without changing the designation, so treat the catalogue version and date as part of the specification and re-verify for critical drives.
Frequently asked questions
What are the dimensions of a 6007-2RS bearing?
A 6007-2RS deep-groove ball bearing has a 35 mm bore, 62 mm outer diameter and 14 mm width (1.378 × 2.441 × 0.551 in), per ISO 15 boundary dimensions. It is fitted with two contact rubber seals and is normally pre-greased. Geometry-based estimated mass is about 147 g for a steel-cage unit; catalogue masses vary slightly with seal and cage design.
How does the 6007 bore code work?
The last two digits of 6007 are bore code 07, giving 07 × 5 = 35 mm bore. The 62 mm outside diameter and 14 mm width follow the ISO 15 diameter series, not the bore code alone.
What does the 2RS suffix on 6007-2RS mean?
2RS means two contact elastomer seals, one each side, usually over a lifetime grease fill. Sealing against dust and moisture is better than ZZ shields, but the lip drag lowers the speed and temperature ceiling.
How does the 6000 compare with other series at the same 35 mm bore?
The second digit is the diameter series: 60 is the smallest standard section (62×14 mm, 13.5 mm radial section) at 35 mm bore — below 62/63/64 in load capacity, for light loads in compact spaces.
What is the SKF designation and catalogue data for 6007-2RS?
In the SKF Rolling Bearings catalogue this size is listed as 6007-2RS1 — two contact elastomer seals over a lifetime grease fill, 35×62×14 mm per ISO 15. Quoted values: C 16.8 kN, C0 10.2 kN, Pu 0.44 kN, limiting speed 7000 r/min, mass 160 g. Brand suffixes (2Z, 2RSH) differ from the industry-neutral spelling 6007-2RS.
