SS 6204 2RS CT 20x47x14 - Stainless Steel

Product Overview

The SS 6204 2RS CT 20x47x14 is a stainless steel deep groove ball bearing designed for long-term operation in environments exposed to moisture, cleaning cycles, or corrosive media. The 2RS rubber seals on both sides protect the internal components from dust, water and contaminants, maintaining smooth rotation and extending service life.

Key Features and Benefits

• Stainless steel construction for enhanced corrosion resistance
• 2RS rubber seals ensure clean, protected bearing operation
• Low friction and stable rotation at varying loads and speeds
• Suitable for demanding industrial and hygienic environments
• Standard dimensions 20x47x14 mm for easy replacement and compatibility

Industrial Applications

This bearing is widely used in:
• Food processing and packaging machinery
• Pumps, fans, conveyors, mixers and industrial drives
• Medical and laboratory equipment
• Machines operating in wash-down or humid environments
• Applications requiring durability and stable performance over time

Main Description

The SS 6204 2RS CT 20x47x14 is a precision-engineered deep groove ball bearing manufactured from stainless steel for superior durability in harsh operating conditions. Compared to standard carbon steel bearings, stainless steel bearings provide significantly better resistance to rust, cleaning chemicals, moisture exposure, and temperature variation. This makes them ideal for environments where hygiene, corrosion resistance and long service life are essential.

The dual rubber seals (2RS) ensure effective protection against dust, liquids, aerosols and particulate contaminants. This internal sealing system preserves lubricant stability, reduces friction, and keeps the bearing running smoothly for extended periods, even under continuous mechanical load. With optimized raceway geometry and high-quality rolling elements, the bearing provides low-noise operation and consistent rotational efficiency.

Its standard dimension of 20x47x14 mm allows direct replacement in many machine assemblies without modifying housings or shaft configurations. Maintenance teams and machine builders rely on this bearing to reduce downtime, support continuous production and enhance overall equipment reliability.

The SS 6204 2RS CT is a preferred choice in industries requiring durable, clean, and stable rotational components, especially where corrosion resistance directly impacts efficiency and service life.
