The SW 6202-10-2RS is a robust and widely utilized deep groove ball bearing engineered for standard industrial applications requiring exceptional protection against dust, moisture, and fine particulates. Featuring a high-quality chrome steel construction (typically SAE 52100) and precision manufacturing, this bearing guarantees smooth operation and reduced friction across a wide range of operating speeds. The defining feature is the 2RS configuration, which employs two synthetic rubber contact seals permanently affixed to both sides. These seals provide superior retention of the high-performance grease while actively blocking external contaminants, significantly extending operational life compared to shielded (ZZ) or open designs. The 6202 series offers an optimized balance between radial and axial load capacity in a compact envelope (15mm bore, 35mm OD).
As a Senior Product Manager for SW, we recommend the 6202-10-2RS for critical applications such as electric motors, conveyors, industrial pumps, and power transmission equipment where reliability under intermittent washdown or dusty environments is paramount. SW bearings are subjected to rigorous quality control checks (ISO 9001 certified) ensuring high running accuracy (P6/ABEC-3 or better) and consistent performance. Investing in the SW 6202-10-2RS minimizes unexpected downtime, reduces overall maintenance cycles, and delivers a superior cost-of-ownership over its lifecycle, making it the reliable choice for industrial OEMs and MRO teams.
