Decoding SKF 24020-2RS5/VT143
- 240Series
- Spherical roller bearings, 240 series. Series differ in outside diameter and width even when the bore is the same.
- 20Bore
- Bore 100 mm (20 × 5).
- 2RS5/VT143Suffix
- SKF suffix: identifies the variant, such as seals or shields, cage, internal clearance or other features.
24020 is the standard ISO basic designation, which sets the bearing type, series and bore.
Description
SKF 24020-2RS5/VT143 measures 100 mm across the bore and 150 mm across the outside diameter; its width is 50 mm (100 x 150 x 50 mm).

Spherical roller bearings from SKF, series 230 and 240, handle radial and axial loads in both directions and tolerate shaft misalignment. Two rows of rollers run on a common sphered raceway, so the bearing adjusts to deflection or mounting error. MR Industrial Accessories supplies these bearings and helps you match the exact suffix to your operating conditions.
The part number tells you the series, size and variant. In codes such as 23024-2RS5/VT143 and 24020-2RS5/VT143, the first digits set the series and bore; 2RS5 means contact seals on both sides; VT143 points to a specific lubricant or internal treatment. Reading those suffixes correctly prevents ordering the wrong replacement.
These bearings appear in mining, cement, steel, paper and aggregate plants, where shock loads and dirty conditions are normal. Typical equipment includes conveyors, mills, crushers, slurry pumps and road machinery. Self-alignment absorbs misalignment between shaft and housing, which helps avoid early wear and keeps the assembly running longer.
Selection depends on radial and axial load, speed and the environment. The 2RS5 seal keeps out dust and moisture, but high temperature or high speed may call for a different variant. At mounting, align the bearing correctly, verify internal clearance and apply the specified lubricant. Clean the housing and shaft before installation to prevent premature failure.
When crossing to another brand, do not use the series number alone. Compare dimensions, load capacity and seal type, because a bearing with the same bore can have different clearance or lubricant. Use the complete equivalent code, suffixes included. If you are unsure, send us the original designation and we will review it with you.

Frequently asked questions
- SKF 24020-2RS5/VT143 bearing: what are its dimensions?
- SKF 24020-2RS5/VT143 measures 100 mm across the bore and 150 mm across the outside diameter; its width is 50 mm (100 x 150 x 50 mm). Those are the boundary dimensions standardized in ISO 15 for basic designation 24020.
- What does the suffix 2RS5 mean on an SKF bearing?
- It indicates double contact seals on both sides. These seals keep lubricant in and block dust and moisture, which helps in dirty or wet environments.
- How do I choose between series 230 and 240?
- Series 230 has a lighter section and can run at higher speeds; series 240 is more robust and takes heavier loads. Base the choice on the space available and the radial and axial loads.
- Are SKF spherical roller bearings interchangeable with other brands?
- They can be interchangeable when dimensions, load capacity, internal clearance and seal type all match. Check the complete designation, not just the series number, and ask a specialist before replacing.
