SKF self-aligning ball bearings are also available in a sealed version with contact seals at both sides – designation suffix 2RS1. These sheet steel reinforced seals are made of oil and wear-resistant acrylonitrile-butadiene rubber (NBR). The permissible operating temperature range for these seals is �40 to +100 �C and up to +120 �C for brief periods. The seal lip contacts a smooth chamfer on the inner ring with light pressure.
Sealed bearings are lubricated as standard with a grease with a lithium thickener, that has good rust inhibiting properties and other characteristics according to the table.
