Description
RKB BS2 2208 belongs to spherical roller bearing, part of our Bearings range. Tell us how many you need by WhatsApp or email and we'll get back to you promptly with a quote for BS2 2208 and any equivalents.
RKB BS2 spherical roller bearings are built to manage heavy radial loads and axial loads in both directions, while allowing for shaft misalignment relative to the housing. This makes them a practical choice for equipment such as conveyors, mills, pumps and industrial fans, where flexing or imperfect alignment can occur. MR Industrial Accessories LLC supplies these bearings to customers across the United States and Latin America, and our team can help you identify the right part number or an equivalent.
The BS2 prefix from RKB covers spherical roller bearings in the 22 series, featuring two rows of rollers and a cylindrical bore. In the part numbers BS2 2205, BS2 2206, BS2 2207, BS2 2208, BS2 2209, BS2 2210, BS2 2211 and BS2 2212, the final digits indicate the size: a higher number means a larger bore diameter and greater load capacity. Suffixes may denote a steel cage, special heat treatment or a different internal clearance, depending on the application.
These bearings are common in industries such as food processing, cement, mining, petrochemical and material handling. They appear in belt conveyors, bucket elevators, mills, mixers, centrifugal pumps, fans and transmission equipment. The self-aligning design is especially useful for long shafts or assemblies where perfect alignment between housings is difficult to achieve.
When selecting a bearing, consider the radial and axial loads, rotational speed and operating environment. In dusty, wet or high-temperature conditions, appropriate sealing and lubrication are important. During installation, use the correct tools, avoid striking the rings directly, and check that the shaft and housing are aligned. Proper internal clearance and clean lubrication help extend service life.
Interchangeability between brands is common for spherical roller bearings: the same size may be available from different manufacturers with similar codes, though suffixes can differ. If you have a code from another brand or an unidentified part, we can suggest a compatible alternative or quote the exact size you need.
To request a quote, send the complete BS2 code or the bearing dimensions via WhatsApp or email. Our team responds promptly with the information you need to evaluate your purchase. MR Industrial Accessories LLC serves customers throughout the United States and several Latin American countries.

Frequently asked questions
- What does the BS2 designation mean in RKB bearings?
- The BS2 designation identifies RKB spherical roller bearings in the 22 series. The number that follows indicates size and load capacity; for example, BS2 2205 and BS2 2212 are different sizes in the same series.
- How can I tell if a spherical roller bearing is compatible with my equipment?
- Check the main dimensions (bore, outer diameter and width), load capacity and sealing type. If you provide the original code or dimensions, we can quote an equivalent replacement.
- What lubrication do you recommend for these bearings?
- Lubrication depends on speed, temperature and environment. Lithium grease is often used for general applications, but a specific grease may be advisable under severe conditions. Contact us via WhatsApp or email for advice based on your case.
