Decoding SKF 6201-2RSH/GFJ
- 62Series
- Deep groove ball bearings, 62 series. Series differ in outside diameter and width even when the bore is the same.
- 01Bore
- Bore 12 mm: by standard, 01 designates 12 mm.
- 2RSH/GFJSuffix
- SKF suffix: identifies the variant, such as seals or shields, cage, internal clearance or other features.
6201 is the standard ISO basic designation, which sets the bearing type, series and bore.
Description
SKF 6201-2RSH/GFJ measures 12 mm across the bore and 32 mm across the outside diameter; its width is 10 mm (12 x 32 x 10 mm).

SKF RSH/GFJ series deep groove ball bearings are sealed and lubricated for life, built to handle moderate radial and axial loads in industrial machinery. Their compact design suits electric motors, pumps, fans, and transmission equipment. MR Industrial Accessories supplies this SKF line, so you can specify the exact size your application requires.
Reading the code helps you confirm what you are ordering. The base number gives the size and dimensional series, such as 60 for extra-light section or 62 for medium section. The 2RSH suffix means the bearing has two synthetic rubber contact seals, one on each side, which block dust and moisture. The GFJ suffix identifies the long-life grease used to fill the bearing at the factory.
These bearings appear in low- and medium-power electric motors, centrifugal pumps, fans, compressors, conveyor belts, and machine tools, as well as in automotive and agricultural equipment. They run at moderate speeds and take combined loads, which makes them a practical choice for maintenance and replacement. Because they are sealed, they need little attention and tolerate dusty or humid conditions.
When selecting a bearing, check the shaft diameter, outer diameter, and width required. Confirm that the 2RSH seal suits the environment: in dirty or wet areas, this contact seal is the right option. The GFJ grease is already inside and does not need topping up under normal operating conditions. During mounting, align the shaft and housing correctly and apply force evenly on the appropriate ring to avoid damage.
For interchangeability, sealed deep groove ball bearings carry different suffixes from other manufacturers, such as 2RS, 2RS1, or DDU for similar contact seals. Dimensional interchangeability is standardized, so a bearing of the same series and size from another brand can replace the SKF one, though performance may differ with material and lubrication quality. Always verify the technical specifications before substituting a component.

Frequently asked questions
- SKF 6201-2RSH/GFJ bearing: what are its dimensions?
- SKF 6201-2RSH/GFJ measures 12 mm across the bore and 32 mm across the outside diameter; its width is 10 mm (12 x 32 x 10 mm). Those are the boundary dimensions standardized in ISO 15 for basic designation 6201.
- What does the 2RSH suffix mean on an SKF bearing?
- The 2RSH suffix indicates two synthetic rubber contact seals, one on each side. These seals keep dust, dirt, and moisture out and retain the grease inside, making the bearing suitable for contaminated environments.
- Does GFJ grease require maintenance?
- No. The GFJ grease is designed to last the service life of the bearing under normal operating conditions and does not need to be replenished. Only in cases of high temperatures or extreme speeds might another lubrication be considered.
- Can I replace an SKF bearing with another brand?
- Yes, if the bore, outer diameter, width, and seal type match. Dimensional interchangeability is standardized, but performance can vary with quality. Verify the specifications and, if unsure, ask with the code or dimensions.
