How the 629-RSR model number is decoded
In the 6200-series, the final digit is the bore in millimetres: 629 fits a 9 mm shaft (direct-number miniature spelling). The envelope is 9×26×8 mm (0.354×1.024×0.315 in) with a 8.5 mm radial section height, C 4.75 kN, C0 1.96 kN and Pu 0.083 kN. SKF lists this as 629-2RSL with a low-friction non-contact seal (2RSL/2RZ spelling): it runs near open-bearing speed with less drag than a contact seal but is not liquid-tight. Limiting speed 30000 r/min, catalogue mass 20 g.
Typical equipment & failure modes
Common applications
- office equipment
- fractional-horsepower motors
- small fans and blowers
- hand-held power tools
Known failure patterns
- fine dust or moisture passing the low-friction non-contact lip in dirty or wet duty
- grease loss past the low-drag seal when no regreasing schedule is kept
- edge loading from shaft deflection or housing misalignment
- rolling-contact fatigue spalling once the catalogue L10 life is exceeded
Selection pitfalls — read before you substitute
- Mount by heating the inner ring (max 120 °C) — driving 629-RSR home through the outer ring or balls brinells the raceways.
- Deep-groove geometry tolerates only minutes of misalignment; if the 26 mm housing bore cannot be aligned, move to a self-aligning bearing rather than shimming 629-RSR.
- The low-friction seal on 629-RSR saves drag versus a contact lip but is not liquid-tight; wet or chemically aggressive positions need the 2RS version.
- Do not pry the caps off 629-RSR to repack it; shield/seal damage leaves a gap that throws grease and admits dirt.
- Catalogue ratings for 629-RSR (C 4.75 kN, C0 1.96 kN) are SKF figures from PUB BU/P1 17000; geometry revisions can change ratings without changing the designation, so keep the catalogue edition with the specification.

Frequently asked questions
What are the dimensions of 629-RSR?
The SKF 629-2RSL measures 9 mm bore × 26 mm OD × 8 mm width (0.354 × 1.024 × 0.315 in), mass about 20 g. It has two low-friction non-contact rubber seals.
How do I read the 629 designation?
Small miniature bearings print the bore as the final digit, so 629 is a 9 mm bearing; the series digits in front give the section (OD/width family).
What is the speed rating of 629-RSR?
SKF lists a 60000 r/min thermal reference speed and a 30000 r/min mechanical limiting speed for 629-2RSL; real limits also depend on lubrication and fits.
What is the difference between 629-RSR and a same-bore 62-series bearing?
Section height differs: 629-RSR has a 8.5 mm radial section and C 4.75 kN; always match d, D and B — same bore alone never makes two bearings interchangeable.
