Inch Deep Groove Ball Bearings

The inch deep groove ball bearing is a component designed for shafts with inch dimensions, unlike conventional metric bearings. It is selected mainly by the shaft diameter and the housing dimensions, which must match the series and suffix of the part number. These bearings support moderate radial and axial loads in both directions, and are suitable for applications where precision and reliability are required. At MR Accesorios Industriales, we offer 80 SKF references in this subcategory, with more than 80 years of experience in the field.

The series that appear in the catalog include RLS, RMS, R, EE, EEB, WR, D/W, MRC, and 1613, among others. The designations RLS and RMS correspond to series of inch deep groove ball bearings with different size ratios; R identifies single-row bearings with inch dimensions; EE and EEB are series of bearings with seals or shields; WR indicates bearings with special features for specific applications; D/W refers to precision bearings with controlled tolerances; MRC is an MRC brand designation for inch bearings; and 1613 is a series of inch ball bearings with particular dimensions. Suffixes such as 2Z, 2RS, C3, P6, and TN9 indicate shields, seals, internal clearance, precision class, and polyamide cage, respectively.

These bearings are used in applications where the shafts have inch dimensions, such as imported equipment, agricultural machinery, power transmission, pumps, fans, and conveying systems. They are common in the maintenance of old or US-made equipment, where metric dimensions are not compatible. Their single-row ball design makes them suitable for moderate speeds and combined loads.

To request a quote for an inch deep groove ball bearing, you need to provide the complete part number shown on the bearing or in the equipment manual. If the part number is not available, you can provide the shaft and housing dimensions, or a cross-reference from another bearing. It is also useful to indicate the brand and any additional suffix, as this determines the specific features such as sealing, internal clearance, or precision. With this data, we can identify the corresponding SKF reference and quote it via WhatsApp or email.
