Decoding SKF 6204 ETN9/C3H
- 62Series
- Deep groove ball bearings, 62 series. Series differ in outside diameter and width even when the bore is the same.
- 04Bore
- Bore 20 mm (04 × 5).
- ETN9/C3HSuffix
- SKF suffix: identifies the variant, such as seals or shields, cage, internal clearance or other features.
6204 is the standard ISO basic designation, which sets the bearing type, series and bore.
Description
SKF 6204 ETN9/C3H measures 20 mm across the bore and 47 mm across the outside diameter; its width is 14 mm (20 x 47 x 14 mm).

This SKF deep groove ball bearing carries radial and axial loads in both directions. Its ETN9/C3H suffix combination means a glass fiber reinforced polyamide cage and a C3H internal clearance for elevated temperature service. You will find it in electric motors, pumps, fans and similar equipment where dependable running matters.
Reading the code helps with selection. ETN9 tells you the cage is glass fiber reinforced polyamide, made for high temperatures. C3 means the internal radial clearance is wider than standard. The H at the end confirms the bearing is built to handle temperatures up to 120 °C. Typical examples in the 62 series, medium section, include 6204 ETN9/C3H and 6205 ETN9/C3H.
These bearings suit food, chemical, petrochemical and power generation plants. Common equipment includes electric motors, centrifugal pumps, fans, compressors and conveyors. Because they tolerate heat, they also work well in ovens, dryers and thermal processes where reliability and low maintenance are priorities.
When choosing a bearing, review radial and axial load, speed and the operating environment. The C3H clearance compensates for thermal expansion and keeps operation smooth. During mounting, use the right tools, check shaft and housing alignment, and apply a grease that matches the working temperature. Do not strike the bearing, and make sure seals are fitted correctly to keep contamination out.
For interchange, SKF bearings with ETN9/C3H suffixes can replace other brands that meet the same dimensional and clearance specifications. Check tolerances and cage type, since these can differ between manufacturers. Use interchange tables or ask a specialist to confirm compatibility.

Frequently asked questions
- SKF 6204 ETN9/C3H bearing: what are its dimensions?
- SKF 6204 ETN9/C3H measures 20 mm across the bore and 47 mm across the outside diameter; its width is 14 mm (20 x 47 x 14 mm). Those are the boundary dimensions standardized in ISO 15 for basic designation 6204.
- What does the C3H suffix mean in this bearing?
- C3H indicates a greater internal radial clearance than standard (C3) and a design that withstands temperatures up to 120 °C (H). This helps compensate thermal expansion and ensures proper operation in heat applications.
- What are the typical applications of this bearing?
- It is used in electric motors, pumps, fans, compressors and conveyors, especially in food, chemical and petrochemical industries. Its high-temperature capability makes it suitable for ovens and dryers.
- How can I ensure interchangeability with other brands?
- Verify that dimensions, internal clearance and cage type match the specifications of the SKF bearing with ETN9/C3H suffixes. Consult equivalence tables or contact MR Industrial Accessories for technical advice.
