The part number breaks down into several elements. The numeric prefix 625 defines the size. The 2RS1 suffix means rubber seals on both sides. C3 indicates internal radial clearance greater than standard. MLHT identifies a special high-temperature lubricant. Reading the code this way helps you verify that a replacement matches the original specification before installation.
These bearings are commonly found in electric motors, pumps, fans, conveyors and agricultural machinery. Their deep raceways allow them to support radial and axial loads while running at high speeds. When selecting a bearing, consider the operating temperature, the presence of contaminants and the load type. The 2RS1 seal keeps out dust and moisture, while C3 clearance compensates for thermal expansion.
During assembly, check shaft and housing alignment and apply the proper fitting force. Avoid striking the bearing directly and use the correct tools. MLHT lubrication is formulated for high temperatures, but continue to monitor the relubrication interval where applicable. In corrosive environments, evaluate additional sealing. Careful installation helps reduce vibration and supports service life.
Deep groove ball bearings can be interchanged between manufacturers when dimensions and suffixes match. An SKF code may have an equivalent in another brand, but always verify tolerances and clearance. Suffixes are not universal; for example, 2RS1 may correspond to 2RS elsewhere. Our team can help you find a suitable equivalent without risks.

Frequently asked questions
- SKF 625-2RS1/C3MLHT23 bearing: what are its dimensions?
- SKF 625-2RS1/C3MLHT23 measures 5 mm across the bore and 16 mm across the outside diameter; its width is 5 mm (5 x 16 x 5 mm). Those are the boundary dimensions standardized in ISO 15 for basic designation 625.
- What does the C3 suffix mean on this bearing?
- C3 indicates greater internal radial clearance than standard. It is used when thermal expansion due to high temperatures or interference fits could otherwise preload the bearing and cause premature failure.
- Does this bearing come with seals on both sides?
- Yes, the 2RS1 suffix indicates rubber seals on both sides, which protect against dust, moisture and lubricant loss. It is suitable for contaminated environments, although not for immersion.
- Can I replace an SKF bearing with another brand?
- Yes, if dimensions, clearance and seal type match. Verify the suffixes, because they may vary between manufacturers. At MR we help you find the correct equivalent for your equipment.
