**SKF Spherical Roller Bearing Code Explanation**
Home > Bearing Knowledge > SKF Spherical Roller Bearing Code
This article provides an in-depth explanation of the code system used by SKF for spherical roller bearings. These codes help identify specific features and characteristics of the bearings, such as clearance, sealing, material, and special applications.
The suffixes used in SKF spherical roller bearing codes include:
- **C2**: Radial clearance is smaller than standard.
- **C3**: Radial clearance is larger than standard.
- **C4**: Radial clearance is greater than C3.
- **C5**: Radial clearance is greater than C4.
- **C08**: Accuracy meets ISO class 5.
- **C083**: C08 + C3.
- **C084**: C08 + C4.
- **2CS**: Double-sided NBR seal with steel cage. The outer ring has a groove and three holes, covered with a plastic band.
- **2CS2**: Double-sided FPM seal with steel cage. Same structure as 2CS2.
- **2CS5**: Double-sided HNBR seal with steel cage. Similar to 2CS2.
- **HA3**: Hardened outer ring with hardened inner ring.
- **K**: Tapered bore, ratio 1:12.
- **K30**: Tapered bore, ratio 1:30.
- **P5**: Precision meets ISO class 5.
- **P6**: Precision meets ISO class 6.
- **P62**: P6 + C2.
- **VA405**: Oscillating machinery bearing with hardened cage.
- **VA406**: VA405 with PTFE coating on the inner hole.
- **VE552(E)**: Outer ring with threaded holes for lifting equipment. E indicates the presence of eye bolts.
- **VE553(E)**: Same as VE552, but with threaded holes on both sides.
- **VG114**: Hardened stamped steel cage.
- **VQ424**: Higher rotational accuracy than C08.
- **W**: No grooves or holes on the outer ring.
- **W20**: Three smooth holes on the outer ring.
- **W26**: Six smooth holes on the inner ring.
- **W33**: Groove and three holes on the outer ring.
- **W64**: Bearings marked with solid lubricant.
- **W77**: Same as W33, but with plug on the hole.
- **W513**: Combination of W26 and W33.
- **235220**: Hardened inner ring with spiral groove in the bore.
These codes are essential for selecting the right bearing for specific applications, especially in industrial and mechanical systems where precision, durability, and performance are critical.
