Cross references & equivalents
| Equivalent model | Brand | Match level | Note |
|---|---|---|---|
| 4206-ATN9 | SKF | partial Main dimensions match; tolerances, seals or internal clearance differ. | Same 30×62×20 mm envelope as SKF 4206 ATN9, but catalogue C/C0 differ (19.5/11.2 kN vs 26/20.8 kN) — envelope match only after a load check. |

How the 62206-2RS model number is decoded
The 62200-series is the wide-section counterpart of the standard deep-groove family (extra width code built into the designation); the last two digits encode the bore: 62206 carries code 06 = 30 mm (code × 5). The envelope is 30×62×20 mm (1.181×2.441×0.787 in) with a 16.0 mm radial section height, C 19.5 kN, C0 11.2 kN and Pu 0.475 kN. SKF catalogues the sealed execution as 62206-2RS1: two contact elastomer lips (2RS1/2RSH spelling) over a lifetime grease fill; the lips add drag, and no reference (thermal) speed is published. Limiting speed 7500 r/min, catalogue mass 250 g.
Typical equipment & failure modes
Common applications
- garden machinery
- textile machines
- electric motors
- centrifugal pumps
Known failure patterns
- contact-seal lip hardening and pre-grease loss after long high-temperature service
- grease-life expiry inside the sealed-for-life cavity, which has no relubrication path
- rolling-contact fatigue spalling once the catalogue L10 life is exceeded
- brinelling from static overload or hammer blows during mounting
Selection pitfalls — read before you substitute
- Fillet radii must clear the 62206-2RS chamfer so the 20 mm-wide ring seats square; an oversized shaft radius creates point contact on the ring face.
- Catalogue ratings for 62206-2RS (C 19.5 kN, C0 11.2 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.
- Contact seals make 62206-2RS slower than the open 62206 (limiting 7500 r/min) and forbid solvent washing, which destroys the lifetime grease.
- Do not pry the caps off 62206-2RS to repack it; shield/seal damage leaves a gap that throws grease and admits dirt.
- Catalogue ratings for 62206-2RS (C 19.5 kN, C0 11.2 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.
- Mount by heating the inner ring (max 120 °C) — driving 62206-2RS home through the outer ring or balls brinells the raceways.
Frequently asked questions
What are the dimensions of 62206-2RS?
The SKF 62206-2RS1 measures 30 mm bore × 62 mm OD × 20 mm width (1.181 × 2.441 × 0.787 in), mass about 250 g. It has two contact rubber seals and a lifetime grease fill.
How does the bore code in 62206 work?
The final two digits of 62206 are bore code 06, multiplied by 5 to give 30 mm.
What load can 62206-2RS take?
Catalogue values for 62206-2RS1: dynamic C 19.5 kN, static C0 11.2 kN, fatigue limit Pu 0.475 kN. Use C in life calculation and C0 for static checks at 30 mm bore.
What is the speed rating of 62206-2RS?
SKF publishes only the 7500 r/min limiting speed for this execution; sealed variants have no thermal reference speed because seal and grease life govern.
