SKF deep groove ball bearings of the MA/C series are precision components with a machined brass cage and specified internal clearance. They are used to support radial and axial loads in a wide variety of industrial applications where high speed and reliability are required. MR Accesorios Industriales supplies this line.
The designation of these bearings combines the series number with the suffixes MA and C3 or C4. For example, 6024 MA/C3 indicates a bearing of the 60 series, with a machined brass cage (MA) and C3 internal radial clearance. The C3 suffix corresponds to a clearance greater than normal, while C4 is even wider. These part numbers make it possible to quickly identify the construction features and the internal fit, making selection easier according to the application.
They are used in industries such as food, chemical, petrochemical and process industries, in equipment such as centrifugal pumps, fans, compressors, conveyor belts and machine tools. Their ability to operate at high speeds and withstand combined loads makes them suitable for power transmission and continuous rotation systems. In Argentina, they are common in industrial plants that require robust equipment with predictable maintenance.
For a correct selection, take the internal clearance into account: C3 or C4 are appropriate when there are interference fits, thermal gradients or high speeds. The brass cage provides strength and allows higher speeds than steel cages. During mounting, verify the alignment of the housings, adequate lubrication and sealing to prevent contamination. Careful mounting extends the service life of the bearing and reduces vibration.
SKF bearings are interchangeable with those of other brands that follow the same dimensional and clearance designations. When looking for a replacement, compare not only the part number but also the internal clearance and the cage type, since they can affect performance. MR Accesorios Industriales supplies SKF, and can advise you on equivalents without compromising the quality of the equipment.

Frequently Asked Questions
- What are the dimensions of the SKF 61832 MA/C3 bearing?
- The SKF 61832 MA/C3 bearing has a 160 mm bore, a 200 mm outside diameter and a 20 mm width (160 x 200 x 20 mm). These are the standardised boundary dimensions (ISO 15) of the basic designation 61832.
- What does the MA suffix mean on an SKF bearing?
- MA indicates that the bearing has a machined brass cage, centered on the outer ring. This cage is stronger and suitable for high speeds and heavy loads, compared with stamped steel cages.
- What is the difference between C3 and C4 clearance?
- C3 clearance is greater than normal clearance, and C4 is even wider. They are chosen when the mounting or operating conditions generate thermal expansion or interference fits that reduce the internal clearance.
- How do I request a quote for these bearings?
- Send the complete bearing part number on WhatsApp to MR Accesorios Industriales. We will reply with the quote. If you have any doubts about the designation, we can help you verify it.
