The SKF deep groove ball bearing is an essential component for supporting radial and axial loads in industrial machinery. Its single-row ball design allows high speeds and low maintenance. At MR Accesorios Industriales we supply this official brand, with more than 80 years of experience. If you need a reliable bearing for your equipment, request a quote via WhatsApp.

The designation 6208/C3VE167 reads as follows: the number 6208 indicates a deep groove ball bearing of the 62 series, which corresponds to a medium section. The suffix C3 indicates an internal radial clearance greater than standard, suitable for applications with high temperatures or fits that reduce clearance. The combination VE167 refers to a special lubrication and sealing execution, defined by the manufacturer for particular conditions. Learn more about this coding by consulting MR.

This type of bearing is used in centrifugal pumps, electric motors, fans, conveyor belts and machine tools. In Argentina, food, petrochemical, textile and metallurgical industries choose it for its versatility and resistance. Its ability to support combined loads and operate at high speeds makes it suitable for continuous equipment. If your application requires a bearing with special clearance, this reference may be the right one.

To select correctly, consider the sealing: VE suffixes usually include seals that retain lubrication and exclude contaminants. Check the C3 radial clearance if the mounting is a press fit on shaft or housing, as it reduces internal clearance. Lubrication must be suitable for the working temperature. During mounting, ensure alignment between shaft and housing to avoid parasitic loads. Careful mounting extends service life.

Equivalences between brands are possible if main dimensions and clearance match. Each manufacturer has its own suffixes for seals, cages and lubricants, so they are not always directly interchangeable. When looking for a replacement, compare bore, outer diameter and width, as well as load type. At MR Accesorios Industriales we can advise you on available alternatives. We do not invent codes: we work with the real designations of each brand.

Frequently Asked Questions

What does the C3 suffix mean in a bearing?
The C3 suffix indicates an internal radial clearance greater than normal. It is used when press fitting reduces clearance or when the working temperature is high. This prevents the bearing from being excessively tight and failing prematurely.
Is this bearing suitable for high speeds?
Yes, deep groove ball bearings are suitable for high speeds. However, the limit depends on lubrication, sealing and load. Consult us with your application data for guidance.
Can I replace an SKF bearing with another brand?
In many cases yes, if the main dimensions and clearance match. But sealing and lubrication suffixes vary between manufacturers. Send us the code and working conditions so we can advise you correctly.
