Cross references & equivalents
| Equivalent model | Brand | Match level | Note |
|---|---|---|---|
| 4213-ATN9 | SKF | partial Main dimensions match; tolerances, seals or internal clearance differ. | Same 65×120×31 mm envelope as SKF 4213 ATN9, but catalogue C/C0 differ (55.9/40.5 kN vs 67.6/67 kN) — envelope match only after a load check. |

How the 62213-2RS 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: 62213 carries code 13 = 65 mm (code × 5). The envelope is 65×120×31 mm (2.559×4.724×1.22 in) with a 27.5 mm radial section height, C 55.9 kN, C0 40.5 kN and Pu 1.73 kN. SKF catalogues the sealed execution as 62213-2RS1: 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 3600 r/min, catalogue mass 1400 g.
Typical equipment & failure modes
Common applications
- industrial electric motors
- gearboxes and speed reducers
- centrifugal and positive-displacement pumps
- material-handling equipment
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
- electrical pitting in VFD-driven motors without shaft grounding
- edge loading from shaft deflection or housing misalignment
Selection pitfalls — read before you substitute
- The fatigue load limit is 1.73 kN; it feeds the equivalent-mean-load check, not the basic life calculation — do not substitute one for the other.
- Catalogue ratings for 62213-2RS (C 55.9 kN, C0 40.5 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 62213-2RS slower than the open 62213 (limiting 3600 r/min) and forbid solvent washing, which destroys the lifetime grease.
- Do not pry the caps off 62213-2RS to repack it; shield/seal damage leaves a gap that throws grease and admits dirt.
- Deep-groove geometry tolerates only minutes of misalignment; if the 120 mm housing bore cannot be aligned, move to a self-aligning bearing rather than shimming 62213-2RS.
- Do not preload 62213-2RS to silence it: a deep-groove ball bearing is not angular-contact, and axial preload only raises temperature and shortens grease life.
Frequently asked questions
What are the dimensions of 62213-2RS?
The SKF 62213-2RS1 measures 65 mm bore × 120 mm OD × 31 mm width (2.559 × 4.724 × 1.22 in), mass about 1400 g. It has two contact rubber seals and a lifetime grease fill.
How does the bore code in 62213 work?
The final two digits of 62213 are bore code 13, multiplied by 5 to give 65 mm.
What load can 62213-2RS take?
Catalogue values for 62213-2RS1: dynamic C 55.9 kN, static C0 40.5 kN, fatigue limit Pu 1.73 kN. Use C in life calculation and C0 for static checks at 65 mm bore.
What is the speed rating of 62213-2RS?
SKF publishes only the 3600 r/min limiting speed for this execution; sealed variants have no thermal reference speed because seal and grease life govern.
