How to read SKF 3217 A/C3
- 32Series
- Double row angular contact ball bearings, 32 series. For the same bore, each series has a different outside diameter and width.
- 17Bore
- 85 mm bore: 17 × 5.
- A/C3Suffix
- SKF suffix: it defines the variant (sealing, cage, internal clearance or other features).
3217 is the standard (ISO) basic designation: it defines the type, the series and the bore.
Description

The double row angular contact bearing is a component designed to support combined radial and axial loads in both directions. Its construction with two rows of balls and inclined raceways allows it to handle tilting moments, making it ideal for applications requiring high rigidity and precision. At MR Accesorios Industriales we offer the SKF brand, a global benchmark in bearings, so your equipment runs reliably.
The designation of these bearings follows a standardized system. For example, the series 3205 A/C3 indicates a double row bearing with a 25 mm bore, while 3206 A/C3 corresponds to 30 mm. The suffix A indicates an internal design variant, and C3 specifies an internal radial clearance greater than standard, suitable for applications with elevated temperatures or interference fits. Knowing these codes allows you to select the correct bearing for your machine.
These bearings are used in industries such as food, textile, paper and metallurgy. In Argentina, they are common in centrifugal pumps, compressors, industrial fans, machine tools and transmission equipment. Their ability to support loads in both directions makes them versatile on shafts where alternating axial forces occur. They are also used in applications with high speed and precision requirements, such as grinding machine spindles.
To select the right bearing, consider the magnitude and direction of the loads, the rotation speed and the environmental conditions. Sealing is key: if there are contaminants, choose variants with seals or shields. Lubrication must be suitable for the temperature and speed; the C3 internal clearance helps when there is thermal expansion. During mounting, ensure precise alignment and avoid impacts that damage the raceways. Incorrect mounting reduces bearing service life.
In the market there are equivalences between brands, but each manufacturer may have variants in suffixes and tolerances. When looking for a replacement, verify the main dimensions (bore, outer diameter and width) and the type of load it will support. The SKF bearings we offer maintain the quality and precision you need. If you have doubts, ask us with the original code and we will advise you to find the best option.

Frequently Asked Questions
- What are the dimensions of the SKF 3217 A/C3 bearing?
- The SKF 3217 A/C3 bearing has a 85 mm bore, a 150 mm outside diameter and a 49.2 mm width (85 x 150 x 49.2 mm). These are the standardised boundary dimensions (ISO 15) of the basic designation 3217.
- What does the C3 suffix mean on a bearing?
- The C3 suffix indicates an internal radial clearance greater than standard. It is used when the bearing will operate at elevated temperatures or with interference fits, since it compensates for thermal expansion and prevents the clearance from becoming excessively reduced during operation.
- How do I choose between a single row and a double row bearing?
- The double row bearing supports axial loads in both directions and tilting moments, so it is ideal for applications requiring greater rigidity. The single row bearing only supports axial load in one direction and is usually used in pairs. Evaluate the loads and the available space.
- Are the SKF bearings you sell genuine?
- Yes, we offer genuine SKF bearings. We are a company and we work with recognized brands to ensure the quality and performance of the products we offer our customers.
