SKF's RMS line covers single row deep groove ball bearings built to inch dimensions, suited to arrangements that carry moderate radial and axial loads. They are typically found where shafts or housings follow inch sizing, including imported machines and older lines. MR supplies this series to customers across the United States, Canada, Mexico and South America.
The letters RMS plus a number form the size code for this inch series. Codes such as RMS 5, RMS 6, RMS 7 and RMS 8 each point to a different bore and capacity. The number is not a measurement you can read off a ruler; it has to be matched against inch dimension tables. A distinguishing feature of the series is the outer ring section, made for housings sized in inches.
Typical applications sit in food, textile, wood and metallurgical operations, especially on imported equipment or lines with inch shafts. Pumps, fans, conveyors and machine tools are common hosts as well. Plants running English or American-origin machinery often rely on these bearings when metric sizes will not fit the existing housings.
Choosing the right unit starts with the shaft and housing diameters in inches, followed by the load type and operating conditions. Look at sealing too: dusty or damp surroundings call for added seals or oil seals. Internal clearance and lubricant should match the working speed and temperature. At assembly, keep shaft and housing aligned so extra loads and early wear do not develop.
For a replacement, compare the inch dimensions and load capacity rather than the code alone. Designations can look alike across manufacturers while dimensions differ slightly. The SKF RMS series is a widely recognized reference point, yet measuring the actual shaft and housing before fitting is always worthwhile. If anything is unclear, send us the measurements or the original code.

Frequently asked questions
- What does the RMS designation mean on an SKF bearing?
- RMS marks a deep groove ball bearing series made to inch dimensions. The trailing number sets the size within that series, tied to a given bore and capacity. It is a code you look up in tables, not a direct measurement.
- How can I tell whether I need an inch bearing or a metric one?
- Measure the shaft and the housing. If the figures land on inches, such as 1" or 1-1/4", the inch version is the one you need. Exact millimeter readings point to a metric bearing. Getting this right is what makes the fit work.
- Is it possible to swap an RMS bearing for a different brand?
- It can be done when the inch dimensions and load capacity line up. Do not go by the code alone; check the real shaft and housing measurements. Send us those figures and we will help you locate an equivalent.
