For radial and axial load support in rotating equipment, this SKF deep groove ball bearing delivers compact versatility. It suits electric motors, pumps, fans and other industrial machinery. The RS seal, polyamide TN cage and GJN grease work together to keep contaminants out and lubrication in. MR Industrial Accessories supplies this brand and helps you match the exact code to your application.
Each part of the designation tells you something about the bearing. RS means rubber seals on both sides, which hold grease in and keep dust and moisture out. TN identifies a polyamide cage that is lightweight and resists corrosion. GJN refers to a grease selected for moderate operating temperatures. A code such as 6208-2RS1TN9/C4GJN puts these together: sealing on both sides, a TN9 cage, GJN grease and C4 radial clearance. Reading the suffixes correctly lets you order precisely what the equipment needs.
These bearings appear in many settings: electric motors driving centrifugal pumps, industrial fans, conveyor belts and machine tools. In food processing, the RS seal helps prevent lubricant from reaching the product. Agricultural equipment such as seeders and harvesters also relies on them. Because they handle combined loads, they work well in belt and gear drives. MR Industrial Accessories assists with selecting the right bearing for each machine.
Selection depends on load, speed and the surrounding environment. Choose the RS seal where dust or moisture is present. The TN cage lowers weight and supports higher-speed operation. GJN grease can provide lifetime lubrication in many installations. During mounting, verify shaft and housing alignment and avoid impacts that might damage the seals. If the bearing carries C4 clearance, confirm it matches the thermal expansion in your equipment.
Deep groove ball bearings from different manufacturers are often interchangeable when dimensions and suffixes align. However, seal, cage and grease designations are not standardized across every brand. Always check the complete code and technical data before substituting one bearing for another. If anything is unclear, send us the original code and we will help you identify a suitable option.

Frequently asked questions
- SKF 6208-2RS1TN9/C4GJN bearing: what are its dimensions?
- SKF 6208-2RS1TN9/C4GJN measures 40 mm across the bore and 80 mm across the outside diameter; its width is 18 mm (40 x 80 x 18 mm). Those are the boundary dimensions standardized in ISO 15 for basic designation 6208.
- What does the RS suffix indicate on an SKF bearing?
- RS means the bearing has rubber seals on both sides. These seals retain grease and block dust and water from entering, which helps extend service life in contaminated or damp conditions.
- How does a TN cage differ from a steel cage?
- A TN cage is made of polyamide, so it is lighter and resists corrosion. Steel cages handle higher temperatures better. The right choice depends on operating conditions, speed and load.
- Can I use another brand in place of an SKF bearing?
- Often yes, if dimensions and specifications match. Since brands may use different suffixes for seals, cages and greases, verify the full code and technical details before making a change.
