Decoding SKF 6005-2RSH/C3WT
- 60Series
- Deep groove ball bearings, 60 series. Series differ in outside diameter and width even when the bore is the same.
- 05Bore
- Bore 25 mm (05 × 5).
- 2RSH/C3WTSuffix
- SKF suffix: identifies the variant, such as seals or shields, cage, internal clearance or other features.
6005 is the standard ISO basic designation, which sets the bearing type, series and bore.
Description
SKF 6005-2RSH/C3WT measures 25 mm across the bore and 47 mm across the outside diameter; its width is 12 mm (25 x 47 x 12 mm).

A single-row deep groove ball bearing from SKF that carries moderate radial and axial loads and is built for equipment where contamination and heat are part of daily operation. The 2RSH/C3WT version pairs contact sealing on both faces with a clearance and heat treatment intended for higher working temperatures.
Reading the code helps when you order. The base number, for example 6005 or 6205, sets the size and the series, with 60 standing for the light section and 62 for the medium one. The 2RSH suffix means rubber contact seals are fitted on both sides, so dust, dirt and moisture meet a barrier instead of the raceways. C3WT covers two things at once: C3 is a radial internal clearance above standard, and WT is a heat treatment that keeps dimensions stable at operating temperatures up to roughly 200 °C.
Typical installations include electric motors, centrifugal pumps, fans, conveyors, machine tools and farm equipment. Where the air carries dust, chips or moderate moisture, the 2RSH seals do the protective work. Where shaft and housing run at different temperatures, such as ovens, dryers and forced ventilation systems, the C3WT clearance absorbs the thermal expansion and keeps the bearing from becoming over-preloaded.
Selection comes down to the load the bearing will see in both directions, the speed of rotation, the surrounding conditions and the temperature in service. During mounting, use the proper tools and keep direct blows away from the rings and balls. Check that shaft and housing are aligned, and pick a lubricant that will not attack the rubber seals. In hot applications, the C3 clearance is what compensates for expansion.
Interchange is possible with bearings from other makers that also offer double contact sealing, C3 clearance and a comparable heat-stabilized treatment. Confirm that bore, outer diameter and width match, and look at tolerances and internal clearance as well. Nomenclature for these features differs between manufacturers, so consult equivalence tables or hand over the complete code.

Frequently asked questions
- SKF 6005-2RSH/C3WT bearing: what are its dimensions?
- SKF 6005-2RSH/C3WT measures 25 mm across the bore and 47 mm across the outside diameter; its width is 12 mm (25 x 47 x 12 mm). Those are the boundary dimensions standardized in ISO 15 for basic designation 6005.
- What do the C3 and WT suffixes indicate?
- C3 is an internal radial clearance above standard, and WT is a heat treatment that preserves dimensional stability at high operating temperatures, up to about 200 °C.
- Will this bearing work in a dusty environment?
- Yes. The 2RSH rubber contact seals on both sides block dust, dirt and moderate moisture, which suits demanding industrial settings.
- Can another brand replace an SKF 2RSH/C3WT bearing?
- Yes, provided the replacement matches the main dimensions and offers double contact sealing plus C3 clearance with a similar heat treatment. Share the full code with MR and the team can check compatibility.
