Decoding SKF 6004-2RSLTN9/C3VT162
- 60Series
- Deep groove ball bearings, 60 series. Series differ in outside diameter and width even when the bore is the same.
- 04Bore
- Bore 20 mm (04 × 5).
- 2RSLTN9/C3VT162Suffix
- SKF suffix: identifies the variant, such as seals or shields, cage, internal clearance or other features.
6004 is the standard ISO basic designation, which sets the bearing type, series and bore.
Description
SKF 6004-2RSLTN9/C3VT162 measures 20 mm across the bore and 42 mm across the outside diameter; its width is 12 mm (20 x 42 x 12 mm).

SKF deep groove ball bearings in the 60 and 62 series are used wherever a shaft needs reliable radial and axial support. Their balanced design fits electric motors, pumps, fans, and transmissions. MR Industrial Accessories LLC supplies these bearings with 2RSLTN9 sealing and C3VT162 clearance, a combination suited to contaminated surroundings and moderate operating temperatures. Our team can review your application and help you confirm the right part.
Reading the code is straightforward. The base number, such as 6000, 6002, or 6203, defines the series and size. The 2RSLTN9 suffix tells you the bearing carries low-drag contact seals on both faces, built to hold lubricant in and keep torque low. C3 signals radial internal clearance above the standard value, which helps when fits are tight or temperatures differ across the assembly. VT162 identifies the factory grease fill. Together these markings describe exactly what you are installing.
These bearings appear across many sectors, including food processing, metallurgy, textiles, and automotive work. You will find them in low and medium power motors, centrifugal pumps, fans, compressors, conveyor lines, and machine tools. Because they handle moderate radial and axial loads, they adapt to varied duties. In dusty, damp, or splash-prone areas, the 2RSLTN9 seal acts as a barrier that supports longer service intervals and less maintenance attention.
Selection comes down to load, speed, and the surrounding conditions. Choose C3 clearance when the shaft or housing fit is an interference fit or when thermal gradients are present. The 2RSLTN9 bearing arrives greased for life and does not need relubrication. At mounting, line up shaft and housing carefully, keep impacts away from the seals, use the correct tools, and confirm smooth rotation. Extra lubrication is not required, though very harsh environments may call for added protection.
For equivalents, SKF deep groove ball bearings share standardized dimensions with other manufacturers' versions. Suffix naming is where they differ: a seal that SKF labels 2RSLTN9 may appear as 2RS or similar elsewhere, and C3 maps to increased radial clearance. Always check the original maker's technical data before committing to a cross. MR Industrial Accessories LLC can point you to the options that fit.

Frequently asked questions
- SKF 6004-2RSLTN9/C3VT162 bearing: what are its dimensions?
- SKF 6004-2RSLTN9/C3VT162 measures 20 mm across the bore and 42 mm across the outside diameter; its width is 12 mm (20 x 42 x 12 mm). Those are the boundary dimensions standardized in ISO 15 for basic designation 6004.
- What does the 2RSLTN9 suffix indicate on these SKF bearings?
- It shows the bearing has low-friction contact seals on both sides, designed to reduce torque and retain lubricant. This makes it suitable for moderately contaminated environments.
- Why use C3 clearance in a deep groove ball bearing?
- C3 radial clearance is larger than normal and is chosen when interference fits or thermal differences between shaft and housing could otherwise preload the bearing and shorten its life.
- How do I request a quote for these bearings?
