How the 61926-2RS model number is decoded
In the 61900-series (ISO 15 diameter series 9) the last two digits encode the bore: 61926 carries bore code 26 = 130 mm. Outside diameter 180 mm and width 24 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 130 mm shaft, typical catalogue practice is a m6 shaft seat with an H7 housing bore — verify against the actual load direction and magnitude.
Typical equipment & failure modes
Common applications
- space-constrained gearboxes
- clutch and transmission assemblies
- robotics and automation joints
- lay shafts and idler shafts
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
- Mount this 130 mm bore bearing by heating the inner ring (induction heater, max 120 °C) — never drive it home through the outer ring or balls, that brinells the raceways.
- The 619xx thin section (25.0 mm section height at 130 mm bore) trades load capacity for compactness; stiff, accurately aligned seats are essential or edge loading will spall the raceway early.
- Contact seals add drag and heat: 61926-2RS runs slower and cooler-limited than the open 61926; 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 61926-2RS 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 130 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.
Frequently asked questions
What are the dimensions of a 61926-2RS bearing?
A 61926-2RS deep-groove ball bearing has a 130 mm bore, 180 mm outer diameter and 24 mm width (5.118 × 7.087 × 0.945 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 1491 g for a steel-cage unit; catalogue masses vary slightly with seal and cage design.
How does the 61926 bore code work?
The last two digits of 61926 are bore code 26, giving 26 × 5 = 130 mm bore. The 180 mm outside diameter and 24 mm width follow the ISO 15 diameter series, not the bore code alone.
What does the 2RS suffix on 61926-2RS 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 61900 compare with other series at the same 130 mm bore?
619 is a thin section one step above 618: 180×24 mm with a 25.0 mm radial section at 130 mm bore; a 6226 on the same bore is substantially larger and more heavily rated.
Are 61926 bearings from different brands interchangeable?
For boundary dimensions, yes: every brand's 61926 uses the same ISO 15 envelope (130×180×24 mm). Load ratings, limiting speeds, clearance, precision class and sealing design can differ, so verify those in the supplier catalogue when substituting. Seal suffixes also differ by brand (2RS, DDU, LLU and similar).
