Enhanced Durability

The W6208-2RS1/VP311 is a deep groove bearing manufactured to SKF’s exacting standards, ensuring reliability and a long operational life even under challenging conditions.

W6208-2RS1/VP311 Bearing Code

Bearings are identified by a specific code that provides detailed information about their design, materials, and functionality. Below is a breakdown for the SKF W6208-2RS1/VP311 bearing.

W

The W in the SKF W6208-2RS1/VP311 bearing code indicates that this deep groove bearing is made from stainless steel. This material provides excellent resistance to corrosion, making the bearing suitable for environments where moisture or chemicals are present.

6208

This is known as the basic designation and gives foundational information about the bearing type and size. Here, the 62 designates this as a deep groove ball bearing in ISO dimensional series 2 - the series simply denotes the outer diameter and width independent from the inside diameter. The last two digits, 08, indicate the inside diameter (or bore size) of the bearing, in this case 40mm.

2RS1

The 2RS1 element of the SKF W608-2RS1/VP311 bearing is used to signify that the bearing has two rubber seals (one on each side). These seals help prevent the ingress of contaminants such as dirt, dust, and moisture while protecting and retaining the bearing’s lubrication, ensuring the longevity of the bearing and its smooth operation.

VP311

The VP311 designation indicates that the W608-2RS1/VP311 is a Food Line bearing made from stainless steel and fitted with blue grease-retaining contact seals approved by the FDA.
